asset_finder doesn't seem to work
Hello Niranjan,
Can you elaborate a bit more on where you got this error and the kind of error you got while at it?
Thanks.
How do we get the list of Securities (and their names) that can be instantiated using the "symbol" object?
On blueshift backtesting, you can use a dummy pipeline to fetch the available symbol on a given date. Please see this link that filters the universe based on a select stock list ('universe'). You can create a similar class, omit the 'universe' argument and in the 'compute' function simply return ' out[:] = assets'. This will return a pipeline object. Calling this pipeline on any given simulation day will return list of assets active on that day. Please note for live trading we do not yet support pipeline methods.
