"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 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 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
"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat

DTNIQ Client Software Wish List » Charting Software Development Mar 1, 2005 02:51 PM (Total replies: 1)

I've used your dtniq charting (and other components) for 2 months now and find overall it's a fine basic software application. I understand you're working on an updated version, so I'd like to offer a couple of ideas for useful changes you might consider implementing:

1] Workspaces: when a user closes (and saves) a workspace, the application has trouble saving two or more charts (of differing sizes and locations) if they have the same symbol or different time intervals. When you open the workspace again, all the saved charts end up as the same size and in the same location. I've found a workaround of sorts, but it would be helpful if it wasn't needed.

2] Formatting and Readability: the grid color of a chart is tied to the color of a candlestick's outline border and horizontal closing mark (for unchanged time intervals). Having these two color settings independent of each other would be useful. If they were independent, you could set the grid color to be less prominent (as background reference) and then set the outline border and horizontal closing mark to be more prominent so as to define the images and improve readability.

3] Symbol Dropdown Menu: being able to delete a symbol you no longer are using would help to keep your charts easier to use and clutter-free.

4] Other Functions: some members of your support department have mentioned a couple of other issues your software developers are working on to me, so I'll steer clear of mentioning them.

Thank you for putting out a very useful product and for working to improve it and make it even better. Its users appreciate your efforts.
Paul
