Repeated "removed" security notifications on universe selection #9055

@jhonabreul

Description

@jhonabreul

Expected Behavior

The algorithm receives a "removed" security notification in SecurityChanges.RemovedSecurities (in OnSecuritiesChanged) only once when the security is deselected from a universe, even if the algorithm has an open position for that security.

Actual Behavior

When a universe selects a security and the algorithm opens a position for it, the security is kept by the universe because of the open position, but the algorithm still gets the "removed" notification in OnSecuritiesChanged.

But since the universe keeps the security (as "pending for removal" when the position is liquidated), on subsequent selections that security is added to the SecurityChanges.RemovedSecurities every time.

Potential Solution

Don't add securities "pending for removal" to the removed securities collection in UniverseSelection on subsequent selections.
