You can test if the symbol exist: thisAlgo.Symbols.Exists(SymName);

Thanks for thinking with me.

But the problem is 'not throwing an exception'  which is more fitting to the way cTrader automate works than a log entry.

Also you solution will not always work. If the symbol is there but has no data the log still gets filled.:-(
Check the little test down here:

protected override void OnStart()
{
    Print("Loading " + Symbols.Count);
    foreach (string Pair in Symbols)
    {
        try
        {
            if (Symbols.Exists(Pair))
            {
                Symbol symbol = Symbols.GetSymbol(Pair);
                if (symbol != null)
                    Print(Pair , "  ", symbol.PipValue);
            }
        }
        catch(Exception ex)
        {
            Print(Pair , "  ", ex.Message);
        }
    }
}

that wil give the following output:

So I'm still in developer-Darkness

Also possible to use method to get only symbol settings without any "live" data

var symbolInfo = Symbols.GetSymbolInfo("AUDDKK.spa");
if (symbolInfo != null)
    Print(string.Format("{0}, PipValue: {1}", symbolInfo.Name, symbolInfo.PipValue.ToString("F" + symbolInfo.Digits)));

I know, but that's not what i mean!
