"If someone needs the best quality data and backfill beyond what their broker provides at a rate that is the best in the industry, I highly recommend IQFeed." - Comment from Josh via Public Forum

"I had always used ******* but for the past 2 weeks have been trying DTN IQFeed. Customer support has been extraordinary. They call just to make sure your problem hasn't recurred." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

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

"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

"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

"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

"With HUGE volume on AAPL and RIMM for 2 days, everyone in a trading room was whining about freezes, crashes and lag with *******, RealTick, TS and Cyber. InvestorRT with IQFeed was rock solid. I mean SOLID!" - Comment from Public IRC Chat

"IQFeed version 4 is a real screamer compared to anything else I have seen." - Comment from Tom

"After all the anxiety I had with my previous data provider it is a relief not to have to worry about data speed and integrity." - Comment from Eamonn

Author	Topic: C# sample using sockets? (9 messages, Page 1 of 1)
svftech -Interested User- Posts: 5 Joined: Apr 17, 2009	Posted: Apr 17, 2009 10:27 AM Msg. 1 of 9 Brand new to IQFEED as of today. I would like like to get streaming tick data using sockets. Could someone point me in the right direction as to how to get started? Ideally, it would be great if there was a simple sample app written in C# that did this. Also, is there a document that details this? Thanks, Steve

The code can be downloaded via the svn browser at SourceForge. The code package was built for SmartQuant, but is modularized enough that bits can be used elsewhere.

Fully written in C# in a highly efficient way. The code is production ready with unit and integration tests. Feedbacks are welcome. https://github.com/mathpaquette/IQFeed.CSharpApiClient Thank you, Mathieu

Your code looks really good and I will probably add more to it. I downloaded your code. For some reason, the .Net 2.0 Standard dependency is not detected. On Compile i get the following error. I am using VS 2017 Community Edition. I have .Net 4.6.1 installed Can you please guide me what is the easies way to get the code to compile. I was able to play with the examples posted by DTN - however yours is high performance IMO.
