Jim,
I'm using DTN IQFeed with TS2000i and I'm curious to know what reasons DTN
gave for not using this combination.
I'm using a slow dial up connection, have 3 or 4 other data feeds coming in
at the same time (Interactive Brokers, Alphatrade Level II, Quote.com Live
Charts, sometimes Ameritrade Level II) and beyond the fact that DTN seems to
transmit a lot of bad ticks on some days, it all works. I do have a
problem with the Global Server turning off the data feed during market hours
(2-10 times on some days), but so far I don't think it has anything to do
with DTN OQFeed. If you can recall what they told you I'd like to hear the
specifics.
Thanks, John
