"Excellent datafeed !!!" - Comment from Arely
"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

Just to be clear for the purposes of anyone reading the thread...

DTN.IQ and IQFeed have different versions.

The releases on Friday (05/04/2007) were DTN.IQ 2.4.8.8 and IQFeed 4.2.1.4

The statement posted above by andrejk would actually apply to IQFeed rather than DTN.IQ.

Strike Price and Expiration Date are being moved from the Summary Message to the Fundamental message since the data does not change throughout the life of the contract.

The behavior for this change is slightly different between the 2 fields. On the current servers, Strike Price will only appear in the Summary message (as it always has). Once the new servers roll out, the field in the Fundamental field will also populate. Expiration date should be populated in both places on the current servers as well as the new servers.

For both, the field populated in the summary message should be considered deprecated as soon as the new servers rollout and will stop being populated sometime in the future.
