ChunkedEncodingError when streaming quotes outside market hours

[zenahirsch]

I'm not sure if this is just an issue on Ally's end, BUT I've found that outside market hours, I get the following error when streaming quotes:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I am streaming quotes like so:

for quote in a.stream(SYMBOL):
    print(quote)
    bid_price = float(quote['bid'])

Is this a known issue? Something I should report to Ally? Thank you!

hmm.... interesting. The requests library is expecting something like:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK 
Content-Type: text/plain 
Transfer-Encoding: chunked

9\r\n
Some data\r\n 
6\r\n
Python\r\n

but instead of the chunk lengths we are just getting an empty line? We should inspect a packet capture first and then report to Ally. We can also just code around this.
