Hi,

I really want to sign up for IQ Feed, but I need VIX Contract Data. This is a new instrument traded on the CFE (Chicago Futures Exchange - part of CBOE). The VIX is the S&P 500 Volatility contracts. Right now the only data provider I can find that carries the VIX is Esignal. I don't want to pay the outrageous fees eSignal charges. I was talking with IQ Feed Tech support and they stated that they might have CFE data in the near future, and they suggested I place a post in this forum.

Could you please provide any comments or updates on IQ Feed obtaining CFE Data??

Thank You,
Steve Slack

Steve,

Are you talking about the CBOT Volatility Index for the S&P 500? If so, we do carry it with a symbol of VIX.XO. Essentially, all CBOE Index symbols have a .XO exension to avoid symbol contention. Thus, we also have VXO.XO which is the Volatility Index for the S&P 100.

No, I am talking about the individual VIX Futures Contracts. There are currently (4) contracts, August, October, November, February 06. I would like to get the individual contract data, not the index.
