Hi all,
I am trying to schedule my Portfolio Construction model to only run on the last day of the month at the close.
When I try simply using .MonthEnd, it works... but when I add TimeRules, I get an error...
self.SetPortfolioConstruction( EqualWeightingPortfolioConstructionModel(\
self.DateRules.MonthEnd("SPY")) )........ WORKS
self.SetPortfolioConstruction( EqualWeightingPortfolioConstructionModel(\
self.DateRules.MonthEnd("SPY"), \
self.TimeRules.BeforeMarketClose("SPY")) )...... DOESN'T
I am getting the following error about the SPY not being in the portfolio, yet I am requesting data for SPY at the initialization..
"During the algorithm initialization, the following exception has occurred: KeyNotFoundException : SPY not found in portfolio. Request this data when initializing the algorithm."
Seems strange that this error would occur when adding a TimeRule but not occur with a DateRule? I have also tried requesting Resolutiuon.Minute data instead of daily data but that doesnt fix the issue either. Any ideas?

Hi Mark,
Please refer to our previous thread to setup monthly rebalancing without these errors.
