I started a new algorithm with one symbol, AAPL it compiled ok but I am getting the following error on back test. No stacktrace and nothing helpful in the log.

@Nicholas, it looks like the data is only updated until about 8/16. I'll look into what's going on and will try to have it up to date by Monday. Apologies, I know we all want to run our algos against the recent crash (me included!). I'll update here when we're back up to date.

Thanks! I will change the dates and try it again.

@MichaelH Changing the dates did it.

@MichaelH I attempted to put the algo live this morning. It would not let me go live, but forced me to enter my paper trade account on IB. I contacted Jared about it, and he wanted more info. It is running paper trading now and I want to let it go to end of day. I will make another attempt after close and make a Camtasia of it so you can see what happened.
Right now it looks like all my limit orders are being returned as invalid. I just got a toast that says "this order does not conform to the minimum price for this order" on a short. Only the market orders are going through. I have a margin account with IB. This behavior may be only on paper trade. Are you aware of limit orders being a invalid on paper trading?

I was mistaken in my last comment.
I just got another toast which says: Brokerage Warning: The price does not conform to the minimum price variation for this contract.

Hey @Nicholas, that message sounds like you're submitting orders with too many decimal places. I'll look into having the brokerage implementation take care of this for you, but for now try rounding to 2 decimal places and that should fix it.

@MIchaelH Got it. Jared tipped me off about rounding and I added it to my algo. An easy fix. I am going live on Tradier on Monday. Whooot! Next up Complex Indicators.
