DateRules.Every cannot take only one day by KILLC

Hello all,

Seems that DateRules.Every cannot take only one day without having issues:

self.SetUniverseSelection(ScheduledUniverseSelectionModel(

            self.DateRules.Every(DayOfWeek.Monday, DayOfWeek.Tuesday),

            self.TimeRules.At(4, 0),

            self.SelectSymbols))



During the algorithm initialization, the following exception has occurred: Trying to dynamically access a method that does not exist throws a TypeError exception. To prevent the exception, ensure each parameter type matches those required by the Every method. Please checkout the API documentation.

  at Initialize in main.py:line 35

 TypeError : No method matches given arguments for Every

Is this a bug? I was able to get it to work with one day by passing DayOfWeek.Monday as the first and second parameters.

self.SetUniverseSelection(ScheduledUniverseSelectionModel(

            self.DateRules.Every([DayOfWeek.Monday]),

            self.TimeRules.At(4, 0),

            self.SelectSymbols))

Encasing the paramters in an list, which what I assume was implicitly happening, fixes the issue.

Hi,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention! Encasing a single date in brackets is the best way to make it work right now but we'll be addressing this and making a fix soon.
