Hi,
Where can I find the API for compress DTN historical ticks data like what IRT use. I look at the API documentation but didn't find any.
Thank you
Tony

Data transfered from the servers to IQConnect is compressed using a standard compression algorithm to save bandwidth. However, IQFeed does not offer any compression algorithm between IQConnect and client applications.

The InvestorRT Smart Compression is not necessarily "compression", rather an algorithm in which they choose not to store ticks that come in at the same price, size and time. This is internal to InvestorRT. In other words, we send the same data to them as we do any other customer.
