Hi Bob,
Been a while -- hope all is doing
well.
So how is the data from DTN.IQ?
I've got a similar issue with eSig renewal coming up, but last year (or maybe 18
months ago) when I tried DNT.IQ, I found it unworkable because of erratic data
spikes in price and occasionally volume. By spikes, I mean bad ticks being
reported which were sometimes 2 to 10 multiples of the correct value.
Obviously made a chart garbage. If you're not seeing any of this,
then perhaps they've fixed the problem. Seemed to be worst (if memory
serves) on high volume stocks or stocks with a lot of movement (like TIVO
yesterday and today). If I shut down and restarted, the backfill
didn't have the spikes, but that wasn't a viable solution for intraday RT
data. Please continue the reports, I'm quite interested.
Peace and Justice

An update: Got DTN.IQ to feed AB, but have
some issues at this point.
Scan's are much faster than with
eSignal.

My eSignal year is up in June, hence my
re-look at IQFeed.
I started to fill out their free trial
and talked to the rep; when he said 300 tickers and I commented that it used
to be 500, he mentioned that DTN.IQ gives 1300 tickers but wasn't sure there
was an API.
Trekked over to dtniq.com and found that
both feeds are accessed via the same API.
Signed up for the 1-week trial and will
report what I find.
