Bug Description

After following the guidelines given in #509 in order to add a new symbol (in this case, BME.MC, a Spanish company that ceased trading on the stock market in 2020), I can use this symbol to manually create a new activity, without issue:

However, when trying to import activity (both using CSV and JSON), an error is raised for this symbol; probably related

To Reproduce

1. Create a new Symbol (e.g. INSERT INTO "SymbolProfile" ("name", "symbol", "currency", "dataSource", "id", "updatedAt") VALUES ('Bolsas y Mercados Españoles', 'BME.MC', 'EUR', 'MANUAL', 'eb039bd7-2c57-4263-9816-b143baf57cee', current_timestamp);).
2. Add entries in MarketData. I added two:
   • INSERT INTO "MarketData"("symbol", "dataSource", "id", "marketPrice", "date") VALUES ('BME.MC', 'MANUAL', 'a2f0cf54-32e8-4d6b-84b7-2381e5f26e18', 33.68, '2015-10-30');
   • INSERT INTO "MarketData"("symbol", "dataSource", "id", "marketPrice", "date") VALUES ('BME.MC', 'MANUAL', 'dbf88287-4d2b-427a-b51a-f81c37893d38', 29.19, '2018-06-15');
3. Try to import activities containing the created symbol. For example:

   {
   "activities": [
   {
     "date": "2015-10-30T00:00",
     "symbol": "BME.MC",
     "currency": "EUR",
     "unitPrice": 33.68,
     "quantity": 26,
     "type": "BUY",
     "fee": 10.76,
     "accountId": "83ca9c73-97da-45ba-8adc-44a76198f1da"
   }
   ]
   }

4. The following error is raised:

Expected behavior

The activities are imported.

Well, it seems that the import works by setting the dataSource to MANUAL, e.g.:

{
  "activities": [
    {
      "date": "2015-10-30T00:00",
      "symbol": "BME.MC",
      "currency": "EUR",
      "unitPrice": 33.68,
      "quantity": 26,
      "type": "BUY",
      "fee": 10.76,
      "dataSource": "MANUAL",
      "accountId": "83ca9c73-97da-45ba-8adc-44a76198f1da"
    }
  ]
}

I'll just close the issue, it may help someone one day.

Hi @pcaro90

it seems that the import works by setting the dataSource to MANUAL

The reason of this is, if no dataSource is specified, the default dataSource (YAHOO) is used. Hence the validation error.
