ERROR — Cannot subscribe to K-Line: No right to subscribe

[munum]

Hi there. I'm trying to run the main_backend.py but I keep getting an error:

ERROR — Cannot subscribe to K-Line: No right to subscribe 00001

I have a subscription quota of 300 according to OpenD and subscription status query also shows 300:

INFO — Query Subscription Quota: {'total_used': 0, 'remain': 300, 'own_used': 0, 'sub_list': {}}

Does anyone know why this might be the case?

Any advice appreciated. Thanks.

Hello @munum , thank you for submitting an issue! 👍 We highly appreciate it if you work on it as well.

Hmm from the error message, I think there may be an issue with the stock code you've provided.

If you want to subscribe HK.00001, need to input "HK.00001" instead of "00001" only, cuz this error message may be thrown either if you are illegible to subscribe (e.g., used up all the subscription quota) or providing an illegal stock code.

Let me know if you have any issue after changing the stock code. Thanks for using FutuAlgo!

I've been working on this issue for a while now. I can confirm that "HK.00001" is the input. Is it essential to have LV2 for it to behave correctly? Is BMP adequate?

No, BMP level subscription is sufficient to do paper trading, historical data download (with limited quota) and other functions like stock filtering.

This error code was thrown by Futu library, and I suspect it is because of incorrect stock code was provided so they cannot download/subscribe any data of this ticker. On 25 Mar 2023 at 00:43 +0800, Michael @.***>, wrote:

But doesn't place_buy_order() need more than BMP level even when paper trading? place_buy_order calls get_ask_and_bid, which calls quote_ctx.get_order_book. quote_ctx.get_order_book needs the stock to be subscribed first:
