"There is no doubt that IQFeed is the best data provider. I am very satisfied with your services. And IQFeed is the only one that I would recommend to my friends. Now, most of them are using your product in China." - Comment from Zhezhe

"Just a quick one to say I'm very impressed so far :) The documentation for developers is excellent and I've quickly managed to get an app written to do historical downloads. The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available. The support guys have been very helpful too, in combination with the forums it's been plain sailing so far!" - Comment from Adam

"I've been using Neoticker RT with IQFeed for two months, and I'm very happy with both of the products (I've had IQFeed for two years with very few complaints). The service from both companies is exceptional." - Comment from Public Forum

Author	Topic: Bulk End-Of-Day Data Download (2 messages, Page 1 of 1)
msearles -Interested User- Posts: 16 Joined: May 12, 2004 Software for DTN RealTime Satellite	Posted: May 14, 2004 10:36 AM Msg. 1 of 2 It would be great to have a facility in IQFeed to allow bulk end-of-day data downloading. I'd like to be able to download, say all stocks EOD data for the last 5 years -- like an EOD service may provide. Then the ability to fetch the last N days for all stocks without requiring a request per stock symbol. The IQFeed server would get a request for ALL stocks EOD data between dates X and Y, build a zip file (compress), and return the file. This would facilitate populating and maintaining a complete EOD database on the user's machine. Even after-hours only would be great. This would be great for our DTN RealTime satellite product TRAX since users want to populate historical EOD data for charting and systems backtesting, but the satellite service doesn't provide historical data, and currently requires another 3rd party EOD data service. In the case of TRAX, the bulk download would primarily be needed to backfill historical data, then TRAX would maintain the EOD database with the satellite data each day by executing an end-of-day process to save the satellite received EOD prices and volume. DTN RealTime with IQFeed could be a great combination. TRAX: DTN RealTime Software for DTN RealTime Satellite http://trax.base16.com

Because it is sold wholesale for redistribution, its price is in the $1000+ price range. We have considered an EOD service, whereby we would limit logins to after market hours only and allow the download of historical data. This doesn't provide the universe download of historical data in a single file, but would allow users to churn through a symbol list to populate their database. At this time, due to development resource limitation, it isn't on the short term radar. It is something on our list though and something we hope to get to. Jay Froscheiser DTN Market Access, LLC.
