I used the DataSet from Vix-Central for some time (configured how decribed in the documentation for that). But at the time it seems not work anymore because I get the error mesage all the time:
Algorithm.Initialize() Error: During the algorithm initialization, the following exception has occurred: Loader.TryCreatePythonAlgorithm(): Unable to import python module ./cache/algorithm/main.pyc. AlgorithmPythonWrapper(): ModuleNotFoundError : No module named 'QuantConnect.Data.Custom.VIXCentral'; 'QuantConnect.Data.Custom' is not a package
