LINQ Query Grabs Earliest Entry Per Other Value

Question

Let's say I have a database that has a bunch of stock quotes

TableQuotes
2010-07-22 09:45:00.000, "ABC", 102.23
2010-07-22 09:45:00.000, "EFG", 24.65
2010-07-22 09:45:00.000, "HIJ", 14.20
2010-07-22 10:45:00.000, "ABC", 104.25
2010-07-22 10:45:00.000, "EFG", 26.09
2010-07-22 10:45:00.000, "HIJ", 12.43
2010-07-23 09:45:00.000, "ABC", 101.23
2010-07-23 09:45:00.000, "EFG", 23.65
2010-07-23 09:45:00.000, "HIJ", 16.20
2010-07-23 10:45:00.000, "ABC", 99.26
2010-07-23 10:45:00.000, "EFG", 22.09
2010-07-23 10:45:00.000, "HIJ", 11.43
...

I want to know how to write a query that:
1. Grabs only one stock quote per symbol per day
2. Grabs the earliest stock quote of each day for each symbol

so for instance, the desired result from my example table would be:

Result
2010-07-22 09:45:00.000, "ABC", 102.23
2010-07-22 09:45:00.000, "EFG", 24.65
2010-07-22 09:45:00.000, "HIJ", 14.20
2010-07-23 09:45:00.000, "ABC", 101.23
2010-07-23 09:45:00.000, "EFG", 23.65
2010-07-23 09:45:00.000, "HIJ", 16.20

Answer 1

var result = from tq in TableQuotes
group tq by new {tq.TimeStamp.Date, tq.Symbol} into g
select g.OrderBy(tq => tq.TimeStamp).First();
