Author	Topic: Dynamic fieldsets affecting Summary messages? (3 messages, Page 1 of 1)
jimc -Interested User- Posts: 35 Joined: Jan 22, 2008	Posted: Oct 6, 2008 08:00 PM Msg. 1 of 3 I'm running IQFeed 4.4.0.3. I'm asking for these dynamic fields via TCP/IP: Symbol,Last,Total Volume,Incremental Volume,High,Low,Bid,Ask,Last Trade Time,Open,Close,Previous Day Volume The dynamic field documentation (http://www.iqfeed.net/dev/api%5Cdocs%5CDynamicFieldsets.cfm) says: "The dynamic fieldsets only apply to update messages ("Q" messages) received in Level 1 streaming data." I'm now getting a summary message that looks like it contains only the fields I requested: P,INDU.X,9955.500,391456801,00,10322.760,9525.320,,,16:30:19t,10322.520,10325.380,00, As far as I'm concerned, it's great if the Summary/'P' messages only send me those fields. But is that the way it's supposed to be (i.e., the documentation is incorrect)? Jim

The dynamic fieldsets only apply to update messages ("Q" messages) received in Level 1 streaming data." It will be fixed in the next version. Brian Visit our new online forums!
