"Just a quick one to say I'm very impressed so far :) The documentation for developers is excellent and I've quickly managed to get an app written to do historical downloads. The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available. The support guys have been very helpful too, in combination with the forums it's been plain sailing so far!" - Comment from Adam

"My broker in Davenport suggested I give you a try as he uses your service and says its the best." - Comment from Bill via RT Chat

"Can I get another account from you? I am tired of ******* going down so often" - Comment from George

"This is an excellent value, the system is generous (allowing for 500 stocks) and stable (and really is tick-by-tick), and the support is fantastic." - Comment from Shirin via Email

"I have to tell you though that using the IQFeed API is about the easiest and cleanest I have seen for some time." - Comment from Jim

"IQ feed works very well, does not have all of the normal interruptions I have grown used to on *******" - Comment from Mark

"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

"You are either overstaffed or people just don't have problems with your feed because customer support always answers the phone quickly." - Comment from Jay via Email

"I will tell others who want to go into trading that DTN ProphetX is an invaluable tool, I don't think anyone can trade without it..." - Comment from Luther

DTN_Jay_Froscheiser -VP, Product Operations- Posts: 1746 Joined: May 3, 2004 DTN IQFeed/DTN.IQ/DTN NxCore	Posted: Jul 2, 2013 06:14 PM Msg. 1 of 2 In order to more closely align with new symbology from the TSX exchange, we will be making the following changes to Canadian equity symbols: • Any symbol that currently ends in .U will now end in .UN • Any symbol that currently ends in .R will now end in .RT • Any symbol that currently ends in .US will now end in .U • Any symbol that currently ends in .SR will now end in .R There are currently 6 symbol collisions that can occur during this change and you might need to manually adjust any historical data you currently have saved to account for this. In each of the following cases, the current symbols are listed below and the symbol ending in .U will reference the symbol ending in .US after the change has been made. • C.FAY.U - FIRST ASSET YIELD OPPORTUNITY • C.FAY.US - FIRST ASSET YLD OPP TRUST • C.GTU.U - CENTRAL GOLD-TRUST • C.GTU.US - CENTRAL GOLD-TRUST • C.ISL.U - ING FLOATING RATE SENIOR LOAN • C.ISL.US - ING FLOATING RATE SENIOR LOAN • C.OUY.U - O'LEARY U.S. STRAT YIELD ADV F • C.OUY.US - O'LEARY US STRAT YIELD ADV FUN • C.SBT.U - SILVER BULLION TRUST UNITS • C.SBT.US - SILVER BULLION TRUST • C.SIA.U - SKYLON INTL ADVANTAGE YIELD TR • C.SIA.US - SKYLON INTL ADVANTAGE YIELD TR We will also be taking the opportunity to correct a long-standing symbology issue with bond symbols in IQFeed that is causing inconsistencies in the symbology. This change will add a dot between the root symbol and any suffix/class identifier. For example: Old Symbol / New Symbol TAKA.CB / TAK.A.CB SXNA.CB / SXN.A.CB BRKB.17A.CB / BRK.B.17A.CB CUSA14.CB / CUS.A14.CB MOGA15.CB / MOG.A15.CB Both of these changes are currently scheduled to be put into production on the weekend of July 13th.
