"I just wanted to say how happy I am with your service. I was able to download the API docs last week and I was able to replicate Interactive Brokers historical bar queries and realtime bar queries over the weekend. That was about one of the fastest integrations that I've ever done and it works perfectly!!!!" - Comment from Jason via Email
"Everything is working amazing now. I'm already impressed with the true-tick feed of IQFeed and it's ability to support my 480 symbol layout." - Comment from Tyler via Email

A DTN salesman mentioned to me that there's a way to get best bid and offer. I'm trying to construct one minute market snapshots which only really need best bid and offer at each minute. I looked into documentation but I couldn't find it. Can someone help?

The best bid and best offer are returned in the Streaming Quote Update message. To get these updates, you need to set a watch for the symbols you are interested in. Yes, this may be more information than you are looking for, but this is the only place you will receive the best bid/offer. In the documentation, this is listed as the bid/ask (which is the best bid and ask at the time of the trade).
