"The service is great, I see a noticeable improvement in my volume profiles over [broker]'s data feed" - Comment from Larry

"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

"IQFeed version 4 is a real screamer compared to anything else I have seen." - Comment from Tom

"For anyone considering using DTN.IQ for a data feed, my experience with the quality of data and the tech support has been very positive." - Comment from Public Forum

"The people at Nirvana have very nice things to say about your company and I can see why! Price and service is a potent combination." - Comment from Ed

"I was on the phone with a friend who uses CQG and right after the Fed announcement, CQG was as much as 30 seconds behind DTN.IQ. Some quotes were off by as much as 15-18 cents. Your feed never missed a beat." - Comment from Roger

"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

"I've never had DTN go out on me since switching. ******* would go down a couple times every month when I was using them." - Comment from Bryce in AL.

"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

"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

I've (at least tried to) set the protocol to 6.1. Could anyone shine any light on why my trade aggressor field appears to have an invalid value? Thanks for your help in advance.

We are looking into this now. As an aside, there will never be any trade aggressor data in the API as far back as April. The exchanges only started providing this data about May 25 of this year. The field should say 0 in this case. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist

I ran the same HTT command last yesterday, and got 0 in the TradeAggressor field where it should be. We are still working on it, though.

So I really don't know what happened. Definitely let me know if it happens again. Sincerely, Gary Stephen DTN IQFeed Implementation Support Specialist
