Trial details

IQML's IQFeed-Matlab connectivityThe IQML trial is fully-functional and 100% free, no strings attached.

Your 15-day trial will start the first time that you run IQML after installation. There are no trial extensions, so I encourage you to start the trial only when you have some time to test the product, and only if you already have an active IQFeed account.

To use IQML you must have an existing installation of the IQFeed client (IQConnect). IQML will not work without an IQFeed client.

You can freely install this trial on as many computers as you wish. If you decide to purchase an IQML license, note that a single license is good for one user on a single physical computer. Refer to the pricing table on IQML’s product page (https://undocumentedmatlab.com/IQML) for details on the various licensing options.

You may also be interested in the companion product IB-Matlab, which connects between Interactive Brokers (IB) and Matlab. IB-Matlab is entirely independent on IQML. It has a similar user-friendly interface and has already been installed by thousands of traders and quants worldwide since 2010.

I also provide Matlab consulting, code development and training services. I will be happy to assist you in developing your trading program as a professional consultant. Email me (altmany at gmail.com) to tell me your needs, and I’ll be happy to assist.
