The typical suspects for slow data transmission are internet speed, computer speed, and sometimes, software processing (when you are looking at a chart). One of the easiest things to do is to bring up the IQWatchQuote from your IQFeed program and type an active symbol in the symbol window (like @ES# or SPY). Notice the T Time on the left side of the WatchQuote - that is the trade times from the exchange expressed in Eastern US time. How does that compare to your clock or the clock at www.time.gov? If you do not find a solution, please contact us at Support@IQFeed.net and we will be glad to take a closer look.
