"I started a trial a few weeks back before the market went wild. DTN.IQ didn’t miss anything and beat my other provider. I decided to stay with you because of the great service through all the volatility." - Comment from Mike

"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email

Craig -DTN Guru- Posts: 326 Joined: Apr 16, 2010	Posted: Aug 3, 2010 02:13 PM Msg. 1 of 4 Today I had a series of disconnects from the Level 1 feed, I reconnected successfully but then noticed that the history connection has silently stopped working. Am I to assume that if I have to reconnect to the Level 1 port that I also have to reconnect to the history port? (Despite the fact no connection error is given on the history port). Update: I didn't notice before, but in my logs I see a E,Could not connect to History Socket. It would be amazingly helpful if the various errors one could receive on the history socket were documented, instead of having to find these things out via trial and error.

I'm not sure what would cause the history to stop working unless it is the same cause of your L1 disconnects. It certainly sounds like you had some network issues either on your end or somewhere between your ISP and our servers. After taking a look at the other thread, it sounds like there might be something else at work here. I'm going to continue this on that other thread http://forums.dtn.com/index.cfm?page=topic&topicID=2871 (for anyone else following along).
