Hi Jayant,



If you are using a demo account, then you will not have access to all tickers. You need to get a data subscription to fetch the necessary data. Your access will be limited to Forex pairs mostly. 



Try the below symbol to fetch data.

def initialize(context):
    context.security=symbol('CASH,EUR,USD')

Thanks!
