"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

"If you want customer service that answers the phone, your best bet is IQFeed. I cannot stop praising them or their technical support. They are always there for you, and they are quick. I have used ****** too but the best value is IQFeed." - 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

"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

"I noticed that ******* quotes locked up shortly after the interest rate announcement yesterday while yours stayed stable." - Comment from Ron in Utah

"If you are serious about your trading I would not rely on IB data for serious daytrading. Took me a while to justify the cost of IQ Feed and in the end, it's just a 2 point stop on ES. Better safe than sorry" - Comment from Public Forum

"Interactive Brokers tick data was inconsistent, so I have switched to using DTN exclusively. It is great to no longer have to worry about my datafeed all day long." - Comment from Philippe

"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

"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

Author	Topic: Trade Date (5 messages, Page 1 of 1)
Peter Larsson -Interested User- Posts: 3 Joined: Apr 15, 2013	Posted: Apr 15, 2013 06:21 AM Msg. 1 of 5 Hi, Being reasonably new to the feed, I would just want to ask why Trade Date is not updated with the last trade date on pre-market trades? It is now Monday and there has been a few pre-market trades on for example INTC. The trade time shows this correctly, however the trade date still shows Friday? I can work around this issue but I'm not a big fan of fuzzy logic (especially since I also need to convert the date/time to UTC) Thanks & Regards, Peter

I spot checked a couple symbols (AAPL as an example) that traded pre-market and the trade date is updated with 4/15/2013. Jay Froscheiser Vice President, Active Trader Products

It seems as I need to re-subscribe to the symbol for the trade date to update. My problem I guess is that I am connected 24/7. I noticed the problem first on Friday when the date reported was still Thursday, and today I started up WatchQuote before pre-market open to monitor INTC. It did not change the date once trades was coming in, however once I switched symbols it updated to Monday correctly. Regards, Peter

I subscribed to HAL after pre-market open but before the first trade came in. As you can see the trade time updated correctly once the trade came in, but the trade date still remains on Friday 12/4. It causes a bit of a problem if I need to re-subscribe and although I can look at the volume to find out when to do it, i'd rather not. Regards, Peter File Attached: hal.png (downloaded 1464 times)

This has been addressed in IQFeed 5.0.0.10 (it looks like you are running 5.0.0.8). There are now separate date fields for each of the different Trade categories (Last, Extended, Other) that update with the first trade of that type each day.
