    Howdy,

    I'm guessing that the best TICK indicator is one that you create from scratch, but right now I'm trying to compare TD Ameritrade feed through Quotetracker versus IQ feed through QT.

    I always "felt" TD tick was off but right now I can't even compare. It's not a matter of lagging...they're not even close!

    Would one or two of you mind volunteering a screen shot of your $TICK chart for today, Friday, so I could at least compare some high/low readings?


    Thanks much,

    V.

    Thanks Lucrum...really helped. Not that IQ is bad but I'm staying with TD.

    IQFeed $Tick through QuoteTracker is slow to update. It updates only about every 5 seconds or so and does not show tick extremes worth a crap if that is what you are looking for. IMHO, it is totally useless for that.

    Yep! And you're right.
