"I just wanted to let you know how fast and easy I found it to integrate IQFeed into our existing Java code using your JNI client. In my experience, such things almost never go so smoothly - great job!" - Comment from Nate
"Previously I was using *******. IQFeed is WAY more economical, and for my charting needs is just as good, if not better." - Comment from Public Forum Post
"I was on the phone with a friend who uses CQG and right after the Fed announcement, CQG was as much as 30 seconds behind DTN.IQ. Some quotes were off by as much as 15-18 cents. Your feed never missed a beat." - Comment from Roger
"Thank God for your Data Feed as the only Zippers I see are on my pants (LOL), and no more 200 pip spikes to mess up charts." - Comment from Spiro via Email
"I noticed that ******* quotes locked up shortly after the interest rate announcement yesterday while yours stayed stable." - Comment from Ron in Utah
"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
"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
"You have an excellent feed. Very few spikes for Spot Forex." - Comment from Public Forum Post

"IQ feed is brilliant. The support is mind-bending. What service!" - Comment from Public Forum Post

For those familiar with the 3rd party product BookMap, it requires MBO data for certain functionality related to displaying the entire market depth and their iceberg and stops detectors. BookMap only supports Rithmic MBO data, not IQFeed’s MBO data, for displaying the full book and indicators on its heatmap. With regard to BookMap’s support of IQFeed MBO data to provide the same functionality, their support replied “Unfortunately, at the moment there is no such technical possibility - to have full market depth with IQFeed in Bookmap. If it will be possible to change this IQFeed connection in the future - there is no such information yet.”
Does anyone know why this would be the case, even if an IQFeed developer license is required to process MBO data? I really don’t care to switch to or add Rithmic, or build my own process to do the same with IQFeed MBO data.

I don't know what exactly Bookmap means by that. IQFeed Protocol 6.2, which was officially released September of last year, offers expanded MBO capabilities. I don't know what exactly they mean by "full book and indicators", but 6.2 has "market by order" and "market by price level" commands. Previously only market by price level was available; market by order is available now for certain exchanges. This page http://www.iqfeed.net/dev/upgrade.cfm?protocol=2 is a good summary of IQFeed's current MBO capabilities. Beyond that I'd need to know more about what Bookmap claims IQFeed doesn't do. I can answer any questions about it.
