IQ Feed Sucks!!

Anyone else having issues with the quality of IQ Feed? Their support is pretty bad too.

I have noticed a terrible drop in quality, and their support staff unknowledgable about issues, and giving lame excuses.

My most recent problem was reported, and I asked for the head of support as their normal staff aren't what they used to be. I was given the name of someone who doesnt exist!

I dont like being lied to.

A great shame as this used to be a great feed. Ive been using it for 6-7 years, maybe more.

Apart from e-signal, are there any other good suppliers as Im about to throw in the towel with IQ after being lied to.

Thanks

I thought IQFeed is owned by eSignal.

depends on what you trade,
and how in depth and detail is your analysis.

I use IB for datafeed... that's all I needed. YMMV.

Thanks for the reply Tams.

I trade futures mostly - day and position trading. The speed and accuracy intraday with IQ seems ok still - keeps up with my X Trader feed.

My bug is the errors in daily data and historical intraday - oh, and being lied to by some jerk on support.
