Hi,
a) Trying to access PipSize via Securities[data.Symbol].SymbolProperties.PipSize, gives an error. Is PipSize still a memeber of SymbolProperties?
b) Some brokers have a 'StopLevel' property ( name as in MT4 ) for Symbol, which determines how close Stop and Limit orders can be opened to the current market price, is there an equivalent for same in QuantConnect?
Regards
Vivek

We have decided to rename SymbolProperties.PipSize to SymbolProperties.MinimumPriceVariation, since the term pip does not refer to a minimum price variation (link). Oanda and FXCM, for instance, use the pippete (tenth of a pip) as a minimum price variation.
We do not have a 'StopLevel' property. Since it would improve QuantConnect/Lean reality modelling and prevent users from placing invalid orders in Live mode, we have just created an issue on Github and now it is part of our TODO: Minimum stop/limit and entry order distance #673
