"This is an excellent value, the system is generous (allowing for 500 stocks) and stable (and really is tick-by-tick), and the support is fantastic." - Comment from Shirin via Email
"Boy, probably spent a thousand hours trying to get ******* API to work right. And now two hours to have something running with IQFeed. Hmmm, guess I was pretty stupid to fight rather than switch all this time. And have gotten more customer service from you guys already than total from them… in five years." - Comment from Jim
"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

We are aware of emails sent out by Telvent DTN with the following message:

"We are going to be upgrading our servers in the near future & the version of IQ you are using may not be compatible with the new server sets, and will no longer work."

The emails don't give any details of the impending Server upgrades nor which versions of IQFeed will be compatible. I did reply to one of the emails but got no response. It would be very helpful if you could answer the following:

1) When are the Server upgrades planned?
2) Which versions of IQFeed will be compatible with the new servers?

Thanks

Dennis, thanks for the questions.

The change should only affect historical data. All versions of IQFeed older than 4.5 should no longer be able to retrieve history once the changes are made.

There is no definate cut-off date yet set for this change. There are still a couple of details outside the realm of IQFeed users that have to be addressed. Meanwhile we are pro-actively contacting customers who are still using older versions in an effort to get them to upgrade (or find out exactly why they wont).
