"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
"Boy, probably spent a thousand hours trying to get ******* API to work right. And now two hours to have something running with IQFeed.

A) Hi I wonder if its permitted by Iqfeed policies to distribute the developers API in my third party application instead of giving out the client API.

B) I always wonder what is the difference between the two?

You can distribute the IQFeed client installer, but not the developer installer. The developer installer includes the sample apps as well as documentation. This is only available for registered developers (see the original developer agreement regarding redistribution). The client is included in the developer install.

For individuals, they should only get the client as they won't care (and aren't licensed) for the developer api.
