"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

"You are either overstaffed or people just don't have problems with your feed because customer support always answers the phone quickly." - Comment from Jay via Email

"And by the way, have to say this. I love the IQFeed software. It's rock solid and it has a really nice API." - Comment from Thomas 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

"I "bracket trade" all major news releases and I have not found one lag or glitch with DTN.IQ feed. I am very comfortable with their feed under all typical news conditions (Fed releases, employment numbers, etc)." - Comment from Public Forum

"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

"I started a trial a few weeks back before the market went wild. DTN.IQ didn’t miss anything and beat my other provider. I decided to stay with you because of the great service through all the volatility." - Comment from Mike

"I am enjoying the feed very much - so superior to the broker provided feed I was previously using." - Comment from George

"I like you guys better than *******...much more stable and a whole lot fewer issues." - Comment from Philip

"I just wanted to let u know that your data feed/service is by far the best!!! Your unfiltered tick data is excellent for reading order flow and none of your competitors delivers this quality of data!" - Comment from Peter via Email

I was requesting 200 days of daily data for the above mentionned symbols and this is what I received: Symbol,PeriodDate,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume 1. C.SGS,2005-01-26 03:47:16,0.1000,0.1050,0.1000,0.1050,34000 2. C.SGS,2005-01-26 03:47:16,0.0800,0.0800,0.0800,0.0800,29000 ... 88. C.SGS,2005-01-26 03:47:16,0.0200,0.0200,0.0200,0.0200,40000 89. C.SGS,2005-01-26 03:47:16,0.0000,0.0000,0.0000,0.0000,0 1. CAOP,2005-01-26 04:05:38,4.5000,4.5400,4.3000,4.3000,68370 2. CAOP,2005-01-26 04:05:38,4.5500,4.5500,4.5000,4.5000,3100 ... 156. CAOP,2005-01-26 04:05:38,0.3500,0.3500,0.3500,0.3500,100 157. CAOP,2005-01-26 04:05:38,0.0000,0.0000,0.0000,0.0000,0 1. CNBF,2005-01-26 04:34:36,12.7500,13.0000,12.7500,13.0000,1400 2. CNBF,2005-01-26 04:34:36,12.5000,13.0000,12.5000,13.0000,4655 ... 83. CNBF,2005-01-26 04:34:36,11.7500,11.9500,11.5000,11.9500,3200 84. CNBF,2005-01-26 04:34:36,0.0000,0.0000,0.0000,0.0000,0 The interesting thing is I get the same result if I request a number of days equal or greater than the max numbers above. But if I request 1 day less than this I get what I expected which is 88 days of history for C.SGS, 156d of CAOP and 83 days of CNBF. Any idea why? Of all the stocks I downloaded last night these were the only 3 with this behavior. Aren't they special! Best, Jean-Francois

It looks like something of a corrupt datapoint in the chart database. Will get our MDI group to look into it on Friday. Jay Froscheiser DTN Market Access, LLC.
