Benji Posted March 2, 2022 Report Share Posted March 2, 2022 I've been noticing quite a few spikes in IQFeed on various tickers that are tough to filter (e.g. 0.4% out of range). I was able to track one of these ticks down and was wondering if it could be filtered. IQFeed listed the trade as TTEXEMPT/PRP. I tested other charting software with spike filtering disabled using IQFeed, and this spike was not displayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted March 3, 2022 Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 Thanks for the report. We check for the quote conditions to exclude invalid ones, missed the TTEXEMPT one. Add it will be in next release. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji Posted March 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 Thank you! I think I found one other pesky status - ODDLOT/NEXTDAYCLR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Medved Posted March 4, 2022 Report Share Posted March 4, 2022 Odd lots can be included/excluded in MT in the settings - just search "odd" in settings. As for NEXTDAYCLR - I dont think that would be a problem with MT because its timestamp would get filtered out. If you see it included in MT although it shouldn't - tell us.

Benji Posted March 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Thank you, I probably will exclude odd lots going forward. I did see those ticks on the QQQ chart and in T&S in MT (the other ones were filtered out by my spike filtering settings and were crossed out in T&S).

Mike Medved Posted March 6, 2022 Report Share Posted March 6, 2022 Benji, in general, cleansing the feed is an art and since we connect to so many and each one does things differently, it is also voodoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji Posted March 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2022 I absolutely appreciate and understand that - it's why I'm using MT as opposed to working with IQFeed and IBKR apis directly 🙂. I have no expectations of fixes and I'm not saying any of this is high priority. MT reduces my need for a lot of different software products, and having reliable data would let me use only MT almost exclusively without needing other software to sanity check. I'm happy to post less and only on more urgent concerns if that's the goal of these forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
