"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

"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

"DTN has never given me problems. It is incredibly stable. In fact I've occasionally lost the data feed from Interactive Brokers, but still been able to trade because I'm getting good data from DTN." - Comment from Leighton

"It’s so nice to be working with real professionals!" - Comment from Len

"For anyone considering using DTN.IQ for a data feed, my experience with the quality of data and the tech support has been very positive." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"I've been using Neoticker RT with IQFeed for two months, and I'm very happy with both of the products (I've had IQFeed for two years with very few complaints). The service from both companies is exceptional." - Comment from Public Forum

"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.

"I've been using IQFeed 4 in a multi-threaded situation for the last week or two on 2600 symbols or so with 100 simultaneous daily charts, and I have had 100% responsiveness." - Comment from Scott

"I will tell others who want to go into trading that DTN ProphetX is an invaluable tool, I don't think anyone can trade without it..." - Comment from Luther

I send a fundamental request (used as a ping [which I requested a few years ago, but haven't seen]), but get no reply in the new system. As the specially requested fundamental message ( f;symbol]<CR><LR> ) is my trigger to action, my action never happens in the new system (148 farm), but still works fine on the 156 farm. I checked the new docs and there has been no change from the old. Help. Terry Terry Laughlin Buy low, soar high.

Can you explain a bit more about the following comment? "(used as a ping [which I requested a few years ago, but haven't seen])" What exactly are you trying to accomplish with the force command? Are you simply wanting to verify that the server is still connected or are you acutally wanting the data that you are requesting for that symbol?
laughlin -Interested User- Posts: 24 Joined: Aug 3, 2005	Posted: Jul 26, 2007 11:35 AM Msg. 3 of 4 Thanks for the confirmation. Now I know I am not batty. I am using the fundamental request as a ping. I need to pass a message from an interrupt routine where action is supposed to be limited to an somewhat lengthy (time wise) routine. SO, I ping (fundamental request) the server and when I get the reply and verify that it is the reply to my ping request, I trigger my time lengthy action routine. terry Terry Laughlin Buy low, soar high.
