I ran the original code but recieved this error: Runtime Error: QuantConnect.Scheduling.ScheduledEventException: Python.Runtime.PythonException: Exception : The security 'JNPR' 'Equity' has already been added. \
Ill attach the full error below.

Hi Phil. You add the same securities over and over again in this code
for symbol in chosen_df.index: self.AddEquity(symbol) self.SetHoldings(symbol, weight)
You should check if the security exists already:
for symbol in chosen_df.index: if not self.Securities.ContainsKey(symbol): self.AddEquity(symbol) self.SetHoldings(symbol, weight)
