No contracts marked for sampling

[ChrisAllisonMalta]

I'm working though getting a system set up for paper trading. I've got my data (historical CSV data from BarChart) in Mongo and I've got my production back test set up with the hard coded estimated parameters calling Mongo for their data.

I think I must have missed a step as when I go to run update_historical_prices() for all of my instruments I get a warning saying that "No contracts marked for sampling for wheat".

FX prices update fine

I've had a thorough look through the docs/issues but I can't see anything, though I have been known to miss things!

Thanks in advance

PS Does it make sense to have these "how do I do ..." type questions as a Q&A in discussions rather than as a "issue"?

"PS Does it make sense to have these "how do I do ..." type questions as a Q&A in discussions rather than as a "issue"?" Yeah look I found a button to do it

Did you run https://github.com/robcarver17/pysystemtrade/blob/master/docs/production.md#update-sampled-contracts-daily?

(I've realised that this is rather poorly documented ... so updated the docs)
