"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat
"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 just wanted to tell you what a fine job you have been doing. While *******, from what I hear, has been down and out, off and on, IQ feed has held like a champ this week." - Comment from Shirin

"If you want customer service that answers the phone, your best bet is IQFeed. I cannot stop praising them or their technical support. They are always there for you, and they are quick. I have used ****** too but the best value is IQFeed." - Comment from Public Forum
"Thanks for the great product and support. During this week of high volume trading, my QuoteTracker + IQ Feed setup never missed a beat. Also, thanks for your swiftness in responding to data issues. I was on ******* for a few years before I made the switch over early this year, and wish I had done it a long time ago." - Comment from Ken
"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

Hello,

I am developing a DDE client in C . I can send symbols request and get back data using this program. I would like to know if anyone can tell me how to delete symbols without shutting down the IQLink program. If you look at the log file in the Iqlink dir, you can watch as symbols are added and deleted by the DDE_IQLink macro. I am trying to figure out a way to delete the symbols that are being 'Watched' under software control. I would really appreciate any help if someone knows how to do this.

Thanks
Thanks for your help!

If there is a DDE command in C to start a DDE conversation, then there should be one to stop the DDE conversation I would assume. The macro in Excel doesn't do any actually watching or unwatching, it just creates formulas in cells in Excel. Excel does the actual watching and unwatching.

If you are using C, you would be better off just geting the IQFeed API so you can access the data in a MUCH more efficient manner than DDE. Our developer support group would then be able to better assist you when you have issues.
