"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
"I had always used ******* but for the past 2 weeks have been trying DTN IQFeed. Customer support has been extraordinary. They call just to make sure your problem hasn't recurred." - Comment from Public Forum
"Very impressed with the quality of your feed - ******* is a real donkey in comparison." - Comment from A.C. via Email
"If you are serious about your trading I would not rely on IB data for serious daytrading. Took me a while to justify the cost of IQ Feed and in the end, it's just a 2 point stop on ES. Better safe than sorry" - Comment from Public Forum
"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
"It’s so nice to be working with real professionals!" - Comment from Len
"Everything is working great with the API. I love it." - Comment from Calvin
"If someone needs the best quality data and backfill beyond what their broker provides at a rate that is the best in the industry, I highly recommend IQFeed." - Comment from Josh via Public Forum
"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
"This is an excellent value, the system is generous (allowing for 500 stocks) and stable (and really is tick-by-tick), and the support is fantastic." - Comment from Shirin via Email

As you see, not only summary message(F), but also update message(Q), the time info for some data is invalid(99:99:99.xxx), that's the reason why my program got stuck.
Now I have ignored the data like that.

1. Well I already know where the problem is. The socket connection is ok, our application also get the data when opening. But what made me confused was the time received.
For keeping ascending time sequence of every contract, our application will ignore the data of which the time is older than the one last received,
so if the application received a wrong data time at the beginning of opening, the time which is, for example, two days later , the application would accept the data and update
the last received time to two days later, then it will reject all the normal data, cauze the time is older than the last updated. That's why I mistook no data on the connection.

The following is the time I got (GMT+8)

2. Yes indeed, I don't set the protocol when connected.

3. Thanks

There are several questions I met when trying to use your api to receive the quote data from LME.
Connection type is Level 1 via TCP/IP, so the questions as the following:

1. As we know, LME opening time is from 1:00AM to 7:00PM, so I ran our application to connect IQFeed Connection Manager at around 00:55AM.
Then I received the connection response "S,SERVER CONNECTED" and sent "w[SYMBOL]<CR><LF>" for watching, every thing was ok. But received
nothing from the Manager after 1:00AM. However, if I close our application then and run it again, do the same things, the data comes. I don't
know why, is there anything wrong, or does it mean I have to connect the Manager after 1:00AM?

2. As Update/Message Summary Format shows, Bid Time/Ask Time/Last Time's resolution is millisecond(eg. HH:MM:SS.ffffff). Actually the the data I got
was like "Q,M.ZN3=LX,2505.00,1,2507.00,2,2507.50,956,11/25/2018,22:54:46,22:54:46" (the dynamic fields I select is "S,SELECT UPDATE FIELDS,Bid,Bid Size,Ask,Ask Size,Last,Number of Trades Today,"
"Last Trade Date,Ask Time,Bid Time\n\r"), the time resolution is just second level. Is that normal?

3. How can I get bid size and ask size from historical data? As Historical via TCP/IP document says, there is only bid price and ask price information in it.

I'm looking forward to hearing from your response.
