I'm trying to get a set of 1min bars back starting at 9:30 EST and going for the next 20 minutes. I connect from Java using the TCP/IP and send:

HIT,SKF,60,20100115 093000,20100115 095000,21,093000,160000,1,HIT_1,5

As I understand it, this should give data for 'SKF' in 1min (60 sec) bars, for Friday Jan 15th 2010 from 9:30am-9:50am. It will give a max of 21 bars and filters out after hours data.

What I get is:

HIT_1,2010-01-15 17:03:00,22.7000,22.7000,22.7000,22.7000,11787379,150,
HIT_1,2010-01-15 17:05:00,22.6900,22.6900,22.6900,22.6900,11791379,4000,
HIT_1,2010-01-15 17:28:00,22.7000,22.7000,22.7000,22.7000,11791879,500,
HIT_1,2010-01-15 17:30:00,22.7200,22.7200,22.7200,22.7200,11791979,100,
...


So it's not starting when I requested and it's giving after hours data which I said should be filtered. I tried this with similar dates on a number of other stocks and they all behaved similarly.

Ideas for what I can do to fix this?

I think I got diverted into the wrong forums, not sure how that happened. Sorry about that.

And when I ran the program this morning it worked as expected. I don't know if there was some glitch over the weekend or what happened but everything's good now.

Hello adrian, sorry for the delay in responding. I'm glad it seems to be working for you once again. Just to verify, there was an issue with one of our server farms over the weekend that would explain the problems you saw.
