Hi INCOME!
I'm unsure of what you were trying to do by setting the start date and end date as the same date. Could you explain?
I managed to get your code to run by setting a "starting date" and having the "end date" be today. I'm very new to this as well so maybe someone else might jump in and offer a more helpful response :)
I cloned the original notebook, and it runs successfully for me.
Is there any chance you are located in a time zone that is east of the US/Eastern time zone? One possible cause of this error is that your pipeline requested data for May 31, 2019 before our nightly data processes ran for that day. I believe datetime.datetime.now()
will get you the datetime in your local time zone, which could resolve to June 1st while it is still May 31st the US/Eastern time zone if you are located in Europe, for example. Quantopian's nightly data updates start at around midnight Eastern time, so my guess is that the data wasn't ready when you ran the pipeline and encountered the error. Does this sound like a reasonable explanation?
