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

Hi,

I was wondering if trades from dark pools show up in the data feed? If so, does it show immediately, or is there a time delay? Are they marked with a different flag?

thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve,

That is an interesting question, but the answer is no, trades from dark pools do not show up in our feed.

Thanks Todd. Does the dark pool volume at least show up in the daily or 1 min values?

Steve,

Excuse me, but I need to clarify the above answer:

At this time, IQFeed includes the volume for these transactions out, but not the prices.
These are considered to be non-last-qualifying-trades and are not stored in IQFeed history.

Thanks Todd. Is there a definition for non-last-qualifying trade? I tried googling it, but couldn't find anything :)

Steve,

Each exchange defines a set of trade conditions that they publish in their feed documentation that identify trades which shouldn’t be counted as normal trades.

By "Non-last-qualifying trade," we mean a trade that does not qualify to set a “Last” price. And since it doesn’t qualify to set a last, it also does not set an Open/High/Low/Close.

Hello Max, the answer above, would be for all symbols and exchanges within IQFeed as they are considered non-qualifiying last trades.

If you have any other problems or questions please let us know.

Thanks.
