"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

"I had always used ******* but for the past 2 weeks have been trying DTN IQFeed. Customer support has been extraordinary. They call just to make sure your problem hasn't recurred." - 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
"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

"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

Hi,

I was using my connection to the IQFeed yesterday and downloaded historic tickdata for the month of May, however I hadn't time to finish for up till today. Now the strange thing is that today there is no data for any date prior to 1st of November. But from the first of November I can get historical tick data. The code has remained unchanged.

Is this an issue at your side or should I continue debugging?

The message I send
HTT,@ES#,20161025 000000, 20161026 235959,,000000,235959,1



The message I receive is, should it be to any help,

"E,!NO_DATA!,,
!ENDMSG!,"

before, I only received an "!NO DATA! END OF MESSAGE" if no data was present.

If I change the date to 2nd Nov I get this data:
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

Good afternoon,

During market hours we only have 8 calendar days of tick data available. You can make the request after 3:30 CST and get the older data.

Good afternoon Tim,

or evening as it is here in Europe ;) and thank you for an insanely fast answer.
That explains it, and now that you mention it I do think I've read it somewhere.
Too bad I couldn't remember it. Once again thank you!

//Johan
