"You are much better than lawyers or the phone company because you answer the phone when I call! I just love your customer service." - Comment from Isreal

"I was on the phone with a friend who uses CQG and right after the Fed announcement, CQG was as much as 30 seconds behind DTN.IQ. Some quotes were off by as much as 15-18 cents. Your feed never missed a beat." - Comment from Roger

"Boy, probably spent a thousand hours trying to get ******* API to work right. And now two hours to have something running with IQFeed. Hmmm, guess I was pretty stupid to fight rather than switch all this time. And have gotten more customer service from you guys already than total from them… in five years." - Comment from Jim

"Everything is working great with the API. I love it." - Comment from Calvin

"DTN feed was the only feed that consistently matched Bloomberg feed for BID/ASK data verification work these past years......DTN feed is a must for my supply & demand based trading using Cumulative Delta" - Comment from Public Forum Post

"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

"Everything is working amazing now. I'm already impressed with the true-tick feed of IQFeed and it's ability to support my 480 symbol layout." - Comment from Tyler via Email

"I'm satisfied with IQFeed. It's the most reliable and fastest quote feed I have ever used. Although I'm a resident in China, it's still very fast!" - Comment from Xiaofei

It isn't in the basic installation and you need to request it specifically from them. In addition, make sure you are running the latest version 4 of IQFeed from our website. Shut down both IQFeed and QuoteTracker, then download and install the IQFeed from our website at www.iqfeed.net. If it continues to be a problem, I am sure Jerry at QuoteTracker will want to see a log from QT to try to figure out what is going on. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

When you try to backfill tick data, do you clear the data first for the symbols? Just trying to narrow down what is going on. But, if you are working with Jerry, and sending the log files, I am sure he will be able to track it down pretty quickly. Jay Froscheiser DTN - Trading Markets

grady -Interested User- Posts: 7 Joined: May 22, 2005	Posted: Feb 22, 2006 07:19 PM Msg. 6 of 7 Its just a glitch that Im sure can be worked out. Not an iqfeed issue at all as far as I can tell. Besides, IQfeed and quotetracker beats the dog doo out of esig. I discontinued esig about 3 yrs ago after having java problems and every time I clicked on live support in esig the program crashed, and I understand things happen. BUT after trying to get esig straightened out for 3 days and to have them tell me to double click on live support within the program for help that was more than my brain could handle after telling them for 3 days that clicking on live support was causing esig to crash.
