"I've been using IQFeed 4 in a multi-threaded situation for the last week or two on 2600 symbols or so with 100 simultaneous daily charts, and I have had 100% responsiveness." - Comment from Scott
"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
"I have to tell you though that using the IQFeed API is about the easiest and cleanest I have seen for some time." - Comment from Jim
"Its working FABULOUSLY for me!! Holy cow...there has been so much I've been missing lately, and with this feed and Linnsoft software...I'm in the game now." - Comment from Chris R.
"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 great with the API. I love it." - Comment from Calvin

"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 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.

Here is a real-time L1 'F' fundamental message for the CME ES futures contract. I requested the watch about 15 minutes before open a few days ago using the @ES# symbol which stands in for the currently active contract (in case that makes a difference):

F,@ES#,22,,,4609.25,3683.50,,,,,,,,,,,,E-MINI S&P 500 SEPTEMBER 2023,,,,,,,,,,,,12,2,,12.42,8,43,07/19/2023,10/11/2022,,,,,,09/15/2023,,,ES,,,18:00:00,17:00:00,USD,50,--H--M--U--Z,0.250000000,,,,

Even though volume is recorded through the day in L1 updates and is available in the historical data, I notice that column 5 here for Average Volume is empty. I wondery, why?

The average volume is a ticker-generated fundamental value for equities only. @ES# is a future, so it won't have this value.

Well, I hope you will agree with me this is not clear from the docs, since the page for Fundamental Message Format lists the Origin of Data of this field as, "Calculated by DTN".

I agree, that could use some clarification. A lot of the docs are being update now so I'll make sure that is addressed.
