But I just installed version 2.3 and everything seems to have been pushed one hour ahead. Not chicago time like I originally thought, but one hour ahead of New York. Here's a snippet of the history I received from IQFeed today (around the high of the day for reference) for @ESM4: 2004-05-13 12:55:00,1102.500000,1101.750000,1101.750000,1102.000000,456654,2153 2004-05-13 12:56:00,1102.250000,1101.750000,1102.250000,1102.000000,457572,918 2004-05-13 12:57:00,1102.500000,1101.500000,1102.000000,1101.500000,458920,1348 If you check the high of the day with the CME, you'll find that these times should correspond to 11:55-11:57 eastern time. So you guys are one hour off. I can just build the fix into the code by subtracting an hour, but I need to know if this is intentional or not. I don't want you to fix this and then have my charts suddenly be one hour too early... Earik Edited by earik on May 13, 2004 at 04:24 PM Edited by earik on May 13, 2004 at 04:24 PM

The times should not have changed. We have 2 reports on this already, but aren't able to duplicate this internally. Don't make any changes to your code to subtract the hour at this point. We will have more info for your shortly. Jay Froscheiser DTN Market Access, LLC.
