ValueError: cannot convert float NaN to integer

While calculating order_target_percent, in algorithms.py, self.portfolio.portfolio_value becomes NaN. The data is also present for that day, as this is happening on a particular day only.

Any help?

Is this when running zipline locally? If so the Google Group may be a place where an answer is more likely. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/zipline
