"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

"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

"I am a hedge fund manager here. It’s funny, I have a Bloomberg terminal and a Bridge feed, but I still like having my DTN feed!" - Comment from Feras

"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

"You are much better than lawyers or the phone company because you answer the phone when I call! I just love your customer service." - Comment from Isreal

"Can I get another account from you? I am tired of ******* going down so often" - Comment from George

"Everything is working great ! Very impressive client. The news refreshes better and is more pertinent than the ******* feed I paid $ 100/month for. I Also like the charts a lot." - Comment from Leon

Would DTN consider providing 15-20 days of tick data? Thank you. Tim TIM The measure of a man is not how many times he gets knocked down.... but how many times he gets back up.

We are limiting the expanded data to requests made between the hours of 4:30pm - 9:30am ET. If you make a request for historical tick data between 9:30am and 4:30pm ET, you will only receive 8 calendar days. http://www.iqfeed.net/index.cfm?displayaction=data§ion=services Since you posted this to the DTN.IQ Client software forum, I assume you are using DTN.IQ software. In this case we are currently beta testing a new DTN.IQ client that supports the increased tick data in the T&S app. We hope to release a public beta within the next few weeks.

Would it be possible instead of having 8 calendar days to have 8 market days? That is good news about the historical tick data. Thank you.

By using Calendar days, we don't need to be concerned about holidays, weekends or different sessions between markets. It is possible that we will expand the amount of data available during the day. For example, if we increased to 10 calendar days you could expect nearly 8 market days on most issues. One reason for us choosing 8 calendar days is it should provide for a full trading week of data on any symbol. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

I hope the powers that be will consider increasing this to 10 trading days or 16 calendar days. Thank you again.
