investpy.search_etfs(by='isin', value='LU0508799334') return only 1 ETF with symbol CBBUND

Searching the same ISIN on investing.com still returns 1 ETF, but the symbol is 5X60.

Hi @andreaiacoponi! Thanks for reporting it, this is a known issue, as the static files need an update 😩 Anyway, in the meantime feel free to use the investpy.search_quotes() function for the most updated data, since that function it's using Investing.com search engine!

More information on how to use this function available at https://github.com/alvarobartt/investpy/wiki/investpy.search_quotes()
