I am connecting to IB to do live trading. I received this error:
Runtime Error: No security definition has been found for the request. Origin: IBPlaceOrder: GARS (STK GARS USD Smart)
I search from forum and find a similar thread. I search from database and find the security. It seems this is another issue? I would like to ask what is the problem. Thanks

Hi Sulfred,
This is because GARS was merged into PTMN on Oct 28, 2020. Refer to this PR.
Please send an email to support@quantconnect.com with the algorithm attached.
Best,
Derek Melchin

Thanks Derek.
A further question. I am using
self.SetHoldings()
to set the orders. I would like to ask how to prevent the algorithm stopped when the similar issue happens again? Is it just add the try: except: ?
Thanks
Sulfred
