Ticker Broad Tape Not Working or Not Implemented #171

Description

@sparkie3

So I'm trying to get the broad tape working using this documentation:

https://interactivebrokers.github.io/tws-api/news.html

I can't seem to find anything in the code that suggests this is properly implemented, and it doesn't look like it works either. I'm not sure if I'm missing something. I'm doing:

contract = ib_async.Contract(sybmol="BZ:BZ_ALL", exchange="BZ", secType="NEWS")
ib.qualifyContracts(contract)
news = reqMktData(contract)

But either tickNews() or news don't return anything, and for news I'm getting a ticker type: Ticker(contract=Contract(secType='News', conId=137116869, symbol='BZ:BZ_ALL', exchange='NEWS', tradingClass='All News:All News'), defaults=IBDefaults(emptyPrice=-1, emptySize=0, unset=nan, timezone=datetime.timezone.utc), created=True)
