"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
"Everything is working amazing now. I'm already impressed with the true-tick feed of IQFeed and it's ability to support my 480 symbol layout." - Comment from Tyler via Email
"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
"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

I have no way to know if the transactions I recieved are being duplicated? Do Iqfeed assigns an id number to each tick? Since yuo do not give the seconds at which the transaction took place its harder to identify if some trades are being duplicated!

The HH represents the hour of the day in a 24 hour clock. MM represents the minutes of the hour. The character represented by c indicates one of the following:
t - A trade update occured
T - Extended Trade.
b - A bid update occured (an ask update may also have occured)
a - A ask update occured
o - Some other type of update occured


In a simplistic example of two trades could you please explain the difference between a Trade update scenario and one with a Extended Trade?

We do not currently carry seconds or TickID, but we will in the future.

An Extended Trade is commonly referred to as a Form T Trade. These trades generally occur outside market hours, but also infrequently occur during market hours.

you could use the value of numtrades to keep track of trades, although this would not work if you are tracking bid/ask updates
