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

For example, I am testing with IBM, GLD and a few other symbols today, all return 0 for the TickID. Here is IBM: Q,IBM,D,94.2000,1.54,0.016619901,7223989,100,95.0000,92.8500,94.1900,94.2200,100,600,173,,2.15,12:48:58t,,93.1600,92.6600,0.03,,,,p,,,,,03/20/2009,,94.2000,,,,1.54,0,10.4,-0.479652165,0.,0.,1.04,0,0.022823779,126553743.60000001,14,4,,9899994,BSE-CSE-CHX-NYSE-PSE-NMS,,,,,24678,,,93.8499,0,N,, Is this correct? Is this something that I need to check to see if it is non-zero before trying to use it? I am using Java with IQFeed 4.5.0.3. Is there something else that needs to be updated on my machine? Thanks, David

Does this mean that you store the historical data in the order it comes from the exchange? This would mean that I am responsible for throwing away historical tick data that is out of order as I read it in. This is okay, I just need to know since a tick that comes in out of order is no longer of use and must be filtered out. Any chance we will see TickIDs in the tick stream anytime soon? Otherwise I will continue to use volume to connect historical ticks with streaming ticks and filter out past, out of order, ticks. Thanks, David
