Error : binance does not have market symbol ETH/USDT

The same code works if we are using Binance Future production API. The testnet used to work too in previous Binance versions ( or maybe previous CCXT versions ? )

@kroitor Our CCXT pro subscription is over so I won’t be able to make that update. However updating the free CCXT seems to fix it. Cheers!

@safwen1 yes, the problem is fixed in CCXT, and CCXT Pro inherits from there. Thanks again for your feedback!
