Hi,

I am using IQFeed API in order to get Fundamental Data from the Streaming Data socket.

There is a field named "Short Interest" in the Fundamental Message Format, but I am getting no value for that field.

Is this normal? Should I have to update or activate something extra in my IQFeed account in order to get this field's value?

Thank you!

What symbol are you looking at? This will happen when there is no valid data for a given field on a given symbol. An example where you should expect a blank return would be for Expiration date on an equity.

I just heard that field is actually no longer part of the feed that we offer, so I need to get that removed from the documentation and the code going forward. My apologies for missing that when the change occurred.
