"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

"I would just like to say that IQFeed version 4 is running very well and I am very happy with its performance. I would also like to extend a big thanks for the fast and efficient help that I always receive. My questions and concerns are always addressed promptly. Way to go!" - Comment from Josh in CO.

"You have an excellent product !!!!!!" - Comment from Arely

"This beats the pants off CQG, I am definitely switching to the ProphetX 3.0!" - Comment from Stephen

"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

"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

"Previously I was using *******. IQFeed is WAY more economical, and for my charting needs is just as good, if not better." - Comment from Public Forum Post

"You have an excellent feed. Very few spikes for Spot Forex." - Comment from Public Forum Post

"I cannot believe what a difference it makes trading with ProphetX!" - Comment from Bruce in Los Angeles

"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

Minute history goes back to 1/13/2006, and daily bars go back to 11/23/1990 Trading Markets Customer Service 9110 West Dodge Rd, Ste 200, Omaha, Ne 68114 800-779-7299 (DTNIQ & IQFEED) www.dtn.com/trading \| http://www.iqfeed.net

DTN_mark_e -Interested User- Posts: 49 Joined: Sep 25, 2014	Posted: Jun 17, 2020 12:21 PM Msg. 4 of 8 you would need to either use one of the IQFeed apps (included in the IQFeed Applications folder), such as the Time&Sales or Charts, or you would need to use a 3rd party software. Note that tick history is limited to 180 days (but you can only download 8 days during US equity market hours).
