"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

"I "bracket trade" all major news releases and I have not found one lag or glitch with DTN.IQ feed. I am very comfortable with their feed under all typical news conditions (Fed releases, employment numbers, etc)." - Comment from Public Forum
"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

The return fields on lookup HX HT for BidSize and AskSize are always 0.

Any chance at all of getting this data?

If not then why have them in the return string at all?

Just curious

We have plans to provide the bid/ask size in history data down the road, so we make the fields available so we can populate it down the road. Unfortunately, that development continues to get pushed off due to other priorities, but that is why it is in there now.
