"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

"There is no doubt that IQFeed is the best data provider. I am very satisfied with your services. And IQFeed is the only one that I would recommend to my friends. Now, most of them are using your product in China." - Comment from Zhezhe

"Thanks for all of your help. Great customer service deserves to be recognized which one the reasons I've been a customer of DTN for over 10 years!" - Comment from Stuart

"I "bracket trade" all major news releases and I have not found one lag or glitch with DTN.IQ feed. I am very comfortable with their feed under all typical news conditions (Fed releases, employment numbers, etc)." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"IQFeed version 4 is a real screamer compared to anything else I have seen." - Comment from Tom

"I've been using IQFeed 4 in a multi-threaded situation for the last week or two on 2600 symbols or so with 100 simultaneous daily charts, and I have had 100% responsiveness." - Comment from Scott

"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

"Awesome response, as usual. It is a sincere and refreshing pleasure to do business with DTN, compared to your competition." - Comment from Ryan

Author	Topic: Beta scanner won't start up (4 messages, Page 1 of 1)
jbclem -Interested User- Posts: 24 Joined: Feb 23, 2005	Posted: Feb 24, 2005 05:43 PM Msg. 1 of 4 I'm not sure if this is the right place for this question, esp. since I use DTN IQFeed, but the beta scanner is giving me this message everytime I try to start it today: "Communications error. Our socket connection to the server was unexpectedly closed. The program is going to exit. Please rerun MarketScan". This is happening everytime I try to start the program. Any suggestions? John

Trying to start the other version gives a more detailed error message: "Communications error. We were unable to establish connection with the server at TCP/IP address 127.0.0.1: 5009; Socket error". "Since we failed to connect to our Level 1 server we are exiting the application" At this time the IQ Connection Manager is working and Global Server (TS2000i) is receiving data. John

If not, please download it from ftp://www.dtniq.com/beta/scansetup2444.exe and let me know if you still have problems. The only reason I can think of that may be causing this is if a local software firewall may be blocking the scans application from connecting to the local port.

I had been reseting my DL-604 router, and I didn't realize that I had to go into router's configuration to reenter some of the ports (used for a different application)...it may be that all that messing around also affected the beta scanner and it's port configuration. Which port(s) does it use...if this happens again I'll check the router's configuration first. John
