The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available.

"I'm satisfied with IQFeed. It's the most reliable and fastest quote feed I have ever used. Although I'm a resident in China, it's still very fast!" - Comment from Xiaofei
"I ran your IQFeed DDE vs. my broker vs. a level II window for some slow-moving options. I would see the level II quote change, then your feed update instantaneously. My broker's DDE, however, would take as much as 30 seconds to update. I am not chasing milliseconds, but half a minute is unacceptable." - Comment from Rob

Hi,

I really want to sign up for IQ Feed, but I need VIX Contract Data. This is a new instrument traded on the CFE (Chicago Futures Exchange - part of CBOE). The VIX is the S&P 500 Volatility contracts. Right now the only data provider I can find that carries the VIX is Esignal. I don't want to pay the outrageous fees eSignal charges. I was talking with IQ Feed Tech support and they stated that they might have CFE data in the near future, and they suggested I place a post in this forum.

Could you please provide any comments or updates on IQ Feed obtaining CFE Data??

Thank You,
Steve Slack

Steve,

Are you talking about the CBOT Volatility Index for the S&P 500? If so, we do carry it with a symbol of VIX.XO. Essentially, all CBOE Index symbols have a .XO exension to avoid symbol contention. Thus, we also have VXO.XO which is the Volatility Index for the S&P 100.

No, I am talking about the individual VIX Futures Contracts. There are currently (4) contracts, August, October, November, February 06. I would like to get the individual contract data, not the index.
