I'm trying to find a way to extract a complete list of US-listed equities.
I figured I could do that by going trough mktsymbols.txt file and filtering by the 'security type' field in fundamental data messages.
The problem with this appears to be that to get the fundamental message - I have to use port 5009, which allows only a limited set of subscriptions.

Is there any other workaround to get a complete list of US stocks besides wEachSymbol / rEachSymbol on port 5009?

You are trying to get real time data on a complete list of equities? If so, you have the wrong product. IQFeed is a limited symbol feed. If you need a full datafeed, our NxCore product is what you need.

We are working on an update to the mktsymbols file so it will provide more detailed information on each symbol. However, it won't provide pricing information.

if you can be a bit more specific regarding what you need, we can try to steer you in the right direction.

No, I do not need realtime data beyond 1000-1300 names.
What I am looking for is to obtain a complete list of tickers, and ideally one 'end of a day' fundamental record with split, dividend etc information for all stocks.

Given that most of the fundamental message fields are static, it seems odd that it is being delivered via realtime port.
