IQFeed Developer Support » History Tick Data Dec 16, 2009 01:59 AM (Total replies: 3)

Ok. I tried this ""HTD,INTC,2,\r\n" and find only one day of data coming back. My socket receive loop is...Am I missing something ?

{
string strData = "";
string ConcatData = string.Empty;
int iEndMsg = -1;
while (iEndMsg == -1)
{
// initialize to sizeof inData to get into loop below
while (stream.DataAvailable)
{
byte[] inData = new byte[8097];
stream.Read(inData, 0, inData.Length);
strData = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(inData);
ConcatData += strData;

//Console.Write(ConcatData);
//Console.Write(strData);
}
iEndMsg = ConcatData.IndexOf("!ENDMSG!");
}

If I want to specify one of the parameters, should I just have empty strings in the command request ? For example, Intel tick data for 2 days in descending order should be "HTD,INTC,2,,,,0,,,\r\n" ? Can anyone point me to the right syntax ? Thanks!

Does anyone know if there is a c# sample to get historical data via sockets ? I only see c++ code in the directory. Thanks!

IQFeed Developer Support » Wannabe API user with question Dec 14, 2009 08:19 PM (Total replies: 5)

Thanks Jay. I will need to look into mine then. The other question is..Is there a real time availability of historical data for the day ? i.e let say I pick a stock of interest and I want to know the tick data from start of the trading session until the request time ? Is this do-able ? It sounded like it isn't possible.

IQFeed Developer Support » Wannabe API user with question Dec 14, 2009 06:44 PM (Total replies: 5)

I am interested in the API license (but have just sent the fax, but am going to wait) and have the following question.

The documentation says IQfeed dont allow watch and unwatch of symbols! Can anyone confirm what that means ? In my code, I want to dynamically select (alert may come from a different provider) a set of symbols and watch their tick and after some time, dismiss some of them and re-populate another list and so on..Is this not possible ? I dont know which ones I am going to watch and cannot make a long list to choose. Anyone ? Please let me know because I dont want to get the license if this is not possible..
