"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

"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 have been using IQFeed now for a few years in MultiCharts and I have zero complaints. Very, very rare to have any data hiccups or anything at all go wrong." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"I've been using IQFeed 4 in a multi-threaded situation for the last week or two on 2600 symbols or so with 100 simultaneous daily charts, and I have had 100% responsiveness." - Comment from Scott

Author	Topic: chained RBOB futures data begins 1995, but cannot access individual daily contracts before QRB (3 messages, Page 1 of 1)
shkim -Interested User- Posts: 4 Joined: Jan 27, 2017	Posted: Jan 19, 2019 04:31 AM Msg. 1 of 3 Hi, I have the following problem: requesting the maximal amount of daily data points for the NYMEX RBOB future "QRB#" I receive the earliest daily trade as of 1995-07-21. However, I always get "no data error" if I try to access the individual contracts before 2002-K (i.e., "QRBK01"), which means the oldest data point I get is 2001-05-02. Requesting futures before (for example, "QRBJ01", which would be the one before) results in "no data". This behavior is confirmed with the IQFEED Times & Sales application, i.e., I get the exact same results. Anyone any idea what is going on? Would really appreciate any hint... Cheers, Seong-Han

We have resolved the daily data for the individual contracts for example QRBJ01. You will now be able to request history from historical contracts you were concerned about on RBOB futures on the NYMEX exchange. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.

I agree with so many other that the customer support response times are great... One more related thing: Requesting the 1min bars for the chained RBOB contract (symbol "QRB#") the earliest data is from April 2007. However, the individual contracts for 1 min data only start April 2008, i.e., 12 contracts are missing with regard to direct access. Would you mind correcting this as well, please?
