"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

"I noticed that ******* quotes locked up shortly after the interest rate announcement yesterday while yours stayed stable." - Comment from Ron in Utah

"This is an excellent value, the system is generous (allowing for 500 stocks) and stable (and really is tick-by-tick), and the support is fantastic." - Comment from Shirin via Email

"My broker in Davenport suggested I give you a try as he uses your service and says its the best." - Comment from Bill via RT Chat

"If you want customer service that answers the phone, your best bet is IQFeed. I cannot stop praising them or their technical support. They are always there for you, and they are quick. I have used ****** too but the best value is IQFeed." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"Its working FABULOUSLY for me!! Holy cow...there has been so much I've been missing lately, and with this feed and Linnsoft software...I'm in the game now." - Comment from Chris R.

"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

"You are much better than lawyers or the phone company because you answer the phone when I call! I just love your customer service." - Comment from Isreal

"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

Is this a known issue? When I receive live quote updates (Q message) I also don't receive a tick id (it's blank, not 0), but bid/ask sizes are sent. Is this a known issue? I've searched for topics related to 'tick' but found nothing relevant. Thanks

DTN_Steve_S -DTN Guru- Posts: 2093 Joined: Nov 21, 2005	Posted: Apr 18, 2006 08:16 AM Msg. 4 of 6 TickID in quote data should start being sent with our next major server release (not the next IQFeed release). With the historical data fields, we are not as certain to when they will be start being populated.

Due to the server changes and compatibility with the IQFeed client, we first need to ensure all IQFeed/DTN.IQ users are on the 4.1 version of IQFeed. This, coupled with continued QA testing on the new server code should take at least another month. We are trying out best to get it out, but don't want to rush it and cause problems.
