"I just wanted to let u know that your data feed/service is by far the best!!! Your unfiltered tick data is excellent for reading order flow and none of your competitors delivers this quality of data!" - Comment from Peter via Email

"Awesome response, as usual. It is a sincere and refreshing pleasure to do business with DTN, compared to your competition." - Comment from Ryan

"I am enjoying the feed very much - so superior to the broker provided feed I was previously using." - Comment from George

"I ran your IQFeed DDE vs. my broker vs. a level II window for some slow-moving options. I would see the level II quote change, then your feed update instantaneously. My broker's DDE, however, would take as much as 30 seconds to update. I am not chasing milliseconds, but half a minute is unacceptable." - Comment from Rob

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

"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

"And by the way, have to say this. I love the IQFeed software. It's rock solid and it has a really nice API." - Comment from Thomas via RT Chat

"I just wanted to tell you what a fine job you have been doing. While *******, from what I hear, has been down and out, off and on, IQ feed has held like a champ this week." - Comment from Shirin

"Can I get another account from you? I am tired of ******* going down so often" - Comment from George

"The people at Nirvana have very nice things to say about your company and I can see why! Price and service is a potent combination." - Comment from Ed

I just tested on a 3.2GHZ dual core machine and it takes me about 10 seconds to download 1 minute signals for as far back as I can go. By way of comparison another vendors took about 6 seconds on the same machine. I think one of the big differences is that their seems to fill in most recent to older so the stuff you are looking at appears onscreen almost immediately then the older stuff fills in. Much more visually appealing. I will test this further in the next few days. One problem I seem to have is when I put say 100 new symbols in a database and am trying to get the backfill data for even 20 days or so for all symbols quickly. In the past IQFEED seems to have bogged down for me w/ AmiBroker; even getting stuck on some symbols. I will try that again w/ the new client. Thanks

Unfortunately the dependability does not work well for me w/ AmiBroker. I have had much better success w/ another data feed. Its more expensive and I'd rather give you the business but I originally brought these issues up many months ago and things still don't work as they should.
