"Everything is working great ! Very impressive client. The news refreshes better and is more pertinent than the ******* feed I paid $ 100/month for. I Also like the charts a lot." - Comment from Leon

"I'm satisfied with IQFeed. It's the most reliable and fastest quote feed I have ever used. Although I'm a resident in China, it's still very fast!" - Comment from Xiaofei

"I am very happy I changed. I love the product, but more so I am thrilled with Tech Support. You are knowledgeable, polite, pleasant and professional." - Comment from Pat

"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email

"I had always used ******* but for the past 2 weeks have been trying DTN IQFeed. Customer support has been extraordinary. They call just to make sure your problem hasn't recurred." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"If you are serious about your trading I would not rely on IB data for serious daytrading. Took me a while to justify the cost of IQ Feed and in the end, it's just a 2 point stop on ES. Better safe than sorry" - Comment from Public Forum

"Thanks for following up with me. You guys do a great job in tech support." - Comment from Phelps

"I use IQ Feed, Great stuff as far as data analysis information, storage and retrieval is concerned." - Comment from Public Forum

Author	Topic: chained RBOB futures data begins 1995, but cannot access individual daily contracts before QRB (3 messages, Page 1 of 1)
shkim -Interested User- Posts: 4 Joined: Jan 27, 2017	Posted: Jan 19, 2019 04:31 AM Msg. 1 of 3 Hi, I have the following problem: requesting the maximal amount of daily data points for the NYMEX RBOB future "QRB#" I receive the earliest daily trade as of 1995-07-21. However, I always get "no data error" if I try to access the individual contracts before 2002-K (i.e., "QRBK01"), which means the oldest data point I get is 2001-05-02. Requesting futures before (for example, "QRBJ01", which would be the one before) results in "no data". This behavior is confirmed with the IQFEED Times & Sales application, i.e., I get the exact same results. Anyone any idea what is going on? Would really appreciate any hint... Cheers, Seong-Han

We have resolved the daily data for the individual contracts for example QRBJ01. You will now be able to request history from historical contracts you were concerned about on RBOB futures on the NYMEX exchange. Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.

I agree with so many other that the customer support response times are great... One more related thing: Requesting the 1min bars for the chained RBOB contract (symbol "QRB#") the earliest data is from April 2007. However, the individual contracts for 1 min data only start April 2008, i.e., 12 contracts are missing with regard to direct access. Would you mind correcting this as well, please?
