"IQFeed version 4 is a real screamer compared to anything else I have seen." - Comment from Tom

"I use IQ Feed, Great stuff as far as data analysis information, storage and retrieval is concerned." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"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

"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

"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

"If you are serious about your trading I would not rely on IB data for serious daytrading. Took me a while to justify the cost of IQ Feed and in the end, it's just a 2 point stop on ES. Better safe than sorry" - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"The service is great, I see a noticeable improvement in my volume profiles over [broker]'s data feed" - Comment from Larry

"I like you guys better than *******...much more stable and a whole lot fewer issues." - Comment from Philip

Author	Topic: Erroneous Split in Fundamental Message (7 messages, Page 1 of 1)
Roberts -Interested User- Posts: 53 Joined: Mar 26, 2008	Posted: Sep 14, 2020 03:44 AM Msg. 1 of 7 Is this a good place to report data errors? The fundamental message returned just now for XLF begins like this, with the record truncated after Split Factor 2 F,XLF,7,,57698000,31.3800,17.4900,31.3800,17.4900,2.4700,0.1516,0.6115,06/25/2020,06/22/2020,,,,,FINANCIAL SELECT SECTOR SPDR,,,1.20,,186563.0,,,,744245,1000.00 09/19/2016,1231.00 05/04/2007,... An hour earlier, this came in... F,XLF,7,,57698000,31.3800,17.4900,31.3800,17.4900,2.4700,0.1516,0.6115,06/25/2020,06/22/2020,,,,,FINANCIAL SELECT SECTOR SPDR,,,1.20,,186563.0,,,,744245,1000.00 09/19/2016,1231.00 07/01/2002,.... I only noticed this because a customer reported that the date he got for Split Factor 2 was 10/12/2010. Besides the changing date for this "split", a bigger problem is that there has never been a second split for XLF. There should only be the first on 9/19/2016, whose factor should be 1000/1231 (approximately). In reality, the factor should be 1/1.23167675 which is really a back-adjusment for a special dividend of $4.44346/share.

Indeed, Split Factor 1 was corrected, but Split Factor 2 should be empty. The factor 1231 is an artifact of the divisor for Split Factor 1 (1000/1231 = approx. 0.81), and its date is fictitious.

Or if that doesn’t work • Shut down and restart the feed. Stephen Shockey Senior Customer Support Representative and Product Support Specialist DTN 800-779-7299 support@iqfeed.net
