As of yesterday I can't extract data for ETF iNAVs

The error message is Invalid Benchmark Buy and Hold Symbol: EEM/IV.

Extraction works for all symbols without "/IV" on them

1. What does it mean to "extract", precisely?

2. Can you chart the symbol EEM/IV normally (All Data)?

3. What data provider is this?

4. How does the data update log look like when you update the DataSet manually?

Sorry for the post

Good for you!

I recall this error message as fixed in one of the previous builds but still there's an open issue (as of Jan 2020):

QUOTE:
(182123) Invalid Benchmark Buy and Hold message for DataSetSymbols
When using SetContext in a DataSetSymbols loop, the dialog "Invalid Benchmark Buy and Hold Symbol:" is displayed when encountering a symbol with a null Bars object. This occurs even if Benchmark Buy & Hold is not enabled.
