Hi,
You will be hard pressed to get helpful answers as you have not provided any
way for list readers to replicate your data and code. Check out this
https://rseek.org/?q=reproducible+example
On the other hand, ...
(1) I have a hunch that one place you are getting tripped up by your effort to
treat IDT as a regular data.frame. In fact, read_excel(), I'm guessing from
the readxl package, returns a tibble. When you subset a tibble like you have
with...
leq <- IDT[,1]
... you get a 1-column tibble...
> leq
# A tibble: 208 x 1
SymbolSeries
<chr>
1 ACCEQ
2 ADANIENTEQ
3 ADANIPORTSEQ
4 ADANIPOWEREQ
5 AJANTPHARMEQ
6 ALBKEQ
7 AMARAJABATEQ
8 AMBUJACEMEQ
9 ANDHRABANKEQ
10 APOLLOHOSPEQ
# ... with 198 more rows
So, that may be part of the issue (but I'm not really sure if it causes the
problem you identify).
(2) Also another possible tripping point, when you prepend 'NSE/' to whatever
lneq is supposed to be, you are using paste() without specifying the sep
argument which defaults to a single space " ". If you want it to be something
else then you have to explicitly set the value of sep.
(3) Finally, you will have much better luck getting help if you configure your
email client to send plain text to this list. Fancily formatted text is made
un-fancy by the list-server software - which will mess up your posted code.
That's why you keep getting ...

... at the tail end of your emails.
Good luck!
