"As a past ******* customer(and not a happy one), IQ Feed by DTN is a much better and cheaper product with great customer support. I have had no problems at all since switching over." - Comment from Public Forum
"Thanks for the great product and support. During this week of high volume trading, my QuoteTracker + IQ Feed setup never missed a beat. Also, thanks for your swiftness in responding to data issues. I was on ******* for a few years before I made the switch over early this year, and wish I had done it a long time ago." - Comment from Ken

"Just a quick one to say I'm very impressed so far :) The documentation for developers is excellent and I've quickly managed to get an app written to do historical downloads. The system is very robust and pretty quick considering the extent of data that's available. The support guys have been very helpful too, in combination with the forums it's been plain sailing so far!" - Comment from Adam

Hi all.

I just purchased my developer account and downloaded the API and examples and all.

But I can't get them to do anything, i'm assuming because I don't have a data feed account? Do I need to purchase a data feed seperate from my developer account in order to actually use the examples, or to develop code?

THe documentation regarding getting started seems to be non-existent...

THanks,
Patrick

Yes. As stated in the email you received confirming your activation of the API, you must also have an IQFeed data account. You can sign up at www.iqfeed.net.
