DTN_Gary_Stephen -DTN Guru- Posts: 396 Joined: Jul 3, 2019	Posted: Jun 6, 2023 11:25 AM Msg. 2 of 5 In general: - tick data is held for 180 days (though only the last 8 days are available during trading hours) - minute data is complete since 2007. This is the case for QGC# - daily data can go back much further; for this symbol is goes back to January 1991. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

DTN_Gary_Stephen -DTN Guru- Posts: 396 Joined: Jul 3, 2019	Posted: Aug 17, 2023 03:12 PM Msg. 5 of 5 Correct, you're connected to the wrong port for the type of command you're sending. Only port 5009 (Level 1) and 9200 (level 2) send timestamps. HTD and HTX are historical/lookup commands which should be sent to port 9100.
