[amibroker] Re: Any opinions about IQFEED or DTN.IQ?

Alex and Paul,

We offer a free trial and would love for you to try the new Plugin
Tomasz released last week.  There were several things Tomasz was
waiting on from us before he reworked the plugin, and I think he is
much happier with it.  Indeed there are still a few things we are
working on, such as continuous daily charts, but overall, our
customers have been extremely happy with IQFeed 4.0 for speed and
reliability.  

We continue to address any problems our 3rd party partners and end
users report, so if you find any issues, please let us know.  As for
the intraday and daily feeds, this wouldn't be a DTN limitation
(unless there is something Tomasz needs from us to merge the databases
- in which case I am sure he will let us know).  We have thousands of
customers using a single app to view all of our data that is included
in the basic service (such as streaming RT and delayed data,
tick/minute/daily/weekly/monthly charts, streaming news, etc).

We do have a server release that is being tested that will add much
better tick correction, continuous contracts, and second resolution. 
If testing goes well, we will have this out shortly.

Again, I know Tomasz is looking for feedback on the new plugin, and
maybe it has satisfied the problems you had seen previously.  If not,
please let us and Tomasz know so we can address them quickly.

Thanks.
