Yes, I've tried VOLQ-NQGI and the data only goes back to late March 2023, so it's useless in building automated trading systems where you need 5-10 years of historical data to train and test on. With the "ubiquitous" comment I was referring to capital markets at large--the VIX is something that market participants (fund managers, analysts, retail investors, etc.) track closely and rely on as an indicator of health and temperament. I believe we can agree this is a widely-accepted fact. Regardless, even if I was the only user on Sierra Chart that used CBOE VIX, I'm stating that the discontinuation of this feed has had severe consequences for my IP and business, and I'm pleading for understanding and assistance in finding a solution. Are you stating that IQ Feed contains the CBOE VIX and I can simply add this service to my Sierra Chart data feeds? It doesn't call out CBOE VIX specifically on their site. Also, just to clarify, would this work as a real-time feed on Sierra Chart? I note the following statements on you DTN IQ overview: Efficient Market Data with Processing on Background Thread: No. You need to use one of the Real-time Exchange Data Feeds Available from Sierra Chart for background thread processing. Processing of Historical Downloaded Data on Background Thread: No. You need to use one of the Real-time Exchange Data Feeds Available from Sierra Chart for background thread processing. Thank you again for your time and consideration. |
