Stocks data feeds. just got IQFeed, I always had esignal, but because iqfeed allows 500 symbols simultanuous real-time I will be using over the esignal API. Esignal ask that you dont follow more than 20-30 symbols at a time realtime.
working on a filter and automated trading strategy.

any comments on quality on IQFeed or any better options??

Just curious on why you are wanting to switch away from IQfeed as you said you "just got it". Generally IQfeed is regarded as one of the best for the retail trader.
