Hello everyone,
I'm having trouble accessing specific symbols using the US Coarse Universe. I'm trying to select the top 5 percentage-gaining stocks compared to the previous day's closing price, but it appears that some of the symbols I need are not included in the Coarse Universe.
For instance, I've set a breakpoint in the code to be triggered when a particular symbol, such as "TORO," is being processed, but the breakpoint is never reached. However, when I add the symbol manually using AddEquity(), I can successfully access its data and the code runs without issues.
Any idea why this might be?

Without seeing the code, it sounds to me like “TORO” is being filtered out and is not part of the Coarse Universe and thus your breakpoint is not being hit.
