Good day,
I am trying to understand the following issue:
When I do a backtest I am using a Brokerage.Binance and when I try to create a universe with multiple symbols I am getting errors:
During the algorithm initialization, the following exception has occurred: ArgumentException : Symbol can't be found in the Symbol Properties Database: SHIBUSDTand
ArgumentException : Symbol can't be found in the Symbol Properties Database: SHIBUSDT
Same problem with many other symbols as well - ZECUSDT, ETCUSDT, etc.
Though I have no problems with BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT or XRPUSDT (and many other symbols).
Based on this link, all these symbols (SHIBUSDT, ZECUSDT, ETCUSDT that I mentioned) should be included, but I am not sure why it is not working.
Maybe I am doing something wrong, but I don't understand why some symbols work and others don't.

Hi Anton
We cannot reproduce the issue. It might be because you haven't explicitly stated the market/brokerage, you may try to set the brokerage model by:
or add the crypto security with a market argument:
If those doesn't work, please attaching a backtest (with the error line commented out) to the community for further assistance.
Best,
