IH/ADVFN Market Data Tools Q and A

[Mattu]

>>perhaps you can give us a report on your success in bringing their quote system up to speed...or have you planted roots over there?

Here's the windup, Sparky.

There's two components to what I/we are working on.

The User Interface -- I'd expect to see the new version released this week. Lots of improvements there, especially with regard to the tabs and the navigation. They roll out stuff once a week, no matter how much development has gone on.

The Underlying Data -- this has been the biggest problem. The quotes are often wrong because it picks PINKS when it should pick OTCBB, etc. Then there's the issue of corporate actions. In the last few weeks, a lot of code has been written to handle both. We're using all of the datafeed for BB/Pinks from today's full day of market action to test our code/logic. If all works well, we're making massive changes to the ticker database and then implementing the 'new' feeds and corporate actions processor. So, a lot of wheels in motion on this one.

Anywho...progress is definitely being made for once, but it's not being shown to the users yet....I'm pessimisticly optimistic that this is 'the week'..
