I'm also updating Symbol properties on Startup of the SymbolScriptBase and I'm also getting the key not in dictionary issue. I was attempting to update Symbol Information because IQ Feed can't accept the date format on the back of the Futures contract so I have to input these as Stock's but then my account values get all screwed up because it believes I'm trading stocks and not futures. Is there anyway around this without switching to a different data provider? Any thoughts?
The next build (which I hope to be able to release this week) has a fix for this problem. I added fields to the symbol information for custom historical, live, and broker data that can be used by the service plugins. I modified IQFeed so that if there is a value in the custom data field, it will use that as the symbol name to send to IQFeed, instead of trying to format the symbol name according to various rules. So what you will need to do is put the raw IQFeed symbol name in the custom historical and custom live data fields for your symbols, then IQFeed will use those symbol names.
Thanks,
Daniel
