"I am keeping IQFeed, much better reliabilty than *******. I may refer a few other people in the office to switch as well." - Comment from Don

"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

"I've never had DTN go out on me since switching. ******* would go down a couple times every month when I was using them." - Comment from Bryce in AL.

"For anyone considering using DTN.IQ for a data feed, my experience with the quality of data and the tech support has been very positive." - Comment from Public Forum

"I'm satisfied with IQFeed. It's the most reliable and fastest quote feed I have ever used. Although I'm a resident in China, it's still very fast!" - Comment from Xiaofei

"Thank you so much - awesome feed, awesome service!" - Comment from Greg via Email

"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

"Thanks for all of your help. Great customer service deserves to be recognized which one the reasons I've been a customer of DTN for over 10 years!" - Comment from Stuart

"I have to tell you though that using the IQFeed API is about the easiest and cleanest I have seen for some time." - Comment from Jim

"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

We are doing research to understand this bug's full effect and if it will indeed explain the inconsistencies you ran across. We will let you know the results of that research when it completes. Tim

DTN_Steve_S -DTN Guru- Posts: 2093 Joined: Nov 21, 2005	Posted: Aug 6, 2018 09:05 AM Msg. 4 of 7 hunter, I'm having some issues finding information about this issue from 18mo ago and Tim is out of the office today (I'll chat with him tomorrow when he gets back). Just to confirm this actually is the same issue. Can you give me an example request/symbol where this is happening for you? Thanks.
hfries -Interested User- Posts: 3 Joined: Aug 5, 2018	Posted: Aug 6, 2018 02:36 PM Msg. 5 of 7 I would have to spend a little time to get the actual request (going through an api), but the two symbols are QNC# and QCL#. The symbols are the only symbols I am using that begin with "Q".Other continuous symbols (that begin with @), ETFs, etc do not return the error. Let me know if you need anything else and if you need the request I will track that down by tomorrow morning.

These contracts are on NYMEX which requires an extra authorization for delayed data. If you login to your account on our account management portal here ( https://myaccount.dtn.com/storefront/login ), you can add those auths to your account and the requests should start working within a couple minutes.

I'm also having issues with the following symbols either returning daily or no data when requesting minute data from the Time & Sales IQ Connect application. Is this also an exchange issue? HKHI.X NIK.X SHGC.X UKX.X (no data) SPX.XO (no data) 3MLIB.X 1YLIB.X
