Trade Stream authenticates and listens but no data arrives

I am able to connect to the trade stream, authenticate and listen OK but no data arrives when i buy or sell stock on the paper account?

Can anybody help with this issue? - i am using websockets for both trade streaming and market updates. I have seperated them both using the threading module.

I have also done a control test whereby 1 thread submits an order every 5 seconds and the trade update is as normal yet nothing has changed.

I have a similar issue where I am using wscat to check the websocket. It authenticates my paper credentials just fine but then I send {“action”: “listen”,“data”: {“steams”: [“T.AMD”]}} and it comes back with: < {“stream”:“listening”,“data”:{“streams”:[]}}. Notice how there is nothing in the “streams”:[] from alpacas server. I saw a tutorial where this worked for the person’s paper trading credentials so I know it works I just don’t know why its not working for me.
