Hi, I was wondering how I can capture one price for the open. Right now I am using:
open_price = self.Securities[symbol].Open in OnData()
however, this is capturing multiple prices for some reason. How can I get only one??
Thank you very much.

Utilize scheduled functions ie. in init use:
def Initialize(self):
self.Schedule.On(self.DateRules.EveryDay('SPY'), \
self.TimeRules.AfterMarketOpen('SPY', 2), \
self.storeOpenPrice)
and then:
def storeOpenPrice(self):
self.openPrice = self.Securities['SPY'].Price
