As per the title, I would like to be able to retrieve a list of symbols of my current portfolio holdings.
For example, if I have 25 shares of AAPL and 30 shares of GOOG, I would like to retrieve a list similar to: ['AAPL','GOOG']
I'd appreciate any input!
By 'retrieve' I'm assuming the goal is to view them.
log.info( [ str(s.symbol) for s in sorted(context.portfolio.positions) ] )
s stands for stock and can be anything.
str() is to remove the (u) unicode indicator like u'TSLA'.

That hit the logging limit around 1024 bytes.
To log more content, this uses a string instead of a list and checks its length (number of characters), logging in batches:
out = ''
for s in sorted(context.portfolio.positions):
out += "'{}', ".format( str(s.symbol) )
if len(out) > 1011:
log.info(out) # this batch
out = '' # start over
log.info(out) # anything remaining The single quotes and commas are not necessary, can do this instead:
out += "{} ".format( str(s.symbol) ) Or
out += ( str(s.symbol) + ' ' )
