## Problem

I have a websocket connection set up and I’m testing out creating and cancelling orders while the market is closed, but not getting any updates. I believe it’s all set up correctly as I see debug messages coming in like this:  
2020-07-13 15:50:32,668 - websockets.protocol - DEBUG - client \< Frame(fin=True, opcode=2, data=b’{“stream”:“listening”,“data”:{“streams”:[“trade\_updates”]}}’, rsv1=False, rsv2=False, rsv3=False)
