[amibroker] Re: delays on iqfeed?

Hi,

I too experienced the same 2 problems.

As regards to the backfill problem, I resolved it by backfilling
through the AA window first, as opposed to manually pacing through the
symbols: I run a simple exploration with "wait for backfill" switched
on, on all quotations. Once this is done all quotes are updated and
streaming.

I have not yet found a solution for the IQFeed delay. All I can say is
that it appears when there are a considerable number of streaming
symbols - if I have 5-10 symbols only which are streaming then the
data is fine, but if I run the backfill on all my database (approx 450
symbols) then I am also experiencing a huge delay.

I do not think this delay is due to the connection speed - I am
currently putting it down to the processing speed of my PC and am
looking to upgrade, but I am not sure this will resolve the problem.

I currently work around this by only subscribing to the symbols I will
be using for the day (by running the above routine I mentioned only on
a watchlist), then I update all the other symbols at the end of the
day in order to stay updated from a historical perspective.

hope this helps. Let me know if you find out something else about the
IQFeed delay :)
