Good Talk guys! 
I have a question regarding the loop beginning on line 49, shown about 18:00 min in:
It looks like we're accessing the DataBufferCellPk property of each DataBufferCell in the dictionary's list of Values.  Since the property DataBuffer.DataBufferCells is a Dictionary(Of DataBufferCellPk, DataBufferCell), Would it work to use the DataBufferCellPk Keys directly?  

For Each sourceCellPk As DataBufferCellPk In priceDataBuffer.DataBufferCells.Keys					
	volumeCell = api.Data.GetDataCell($"
		F#EndBalLOad:I#Top:O#Top:A#Volume:
		U1#{sourceCellPk.GetUD1Name(api)}:
		U2#{sourceCellPk.GetUD2Name(api)}:
		U3#{sourceCellPk.GetUD3Name(api)}:
		U4#{sourceCellPk.GetUD4Name(api)}:
		U5#{sourceCellPk.GetUD5Name(api)}:
		U6#{sourceCellPk.GetUD6Name(api)}:
		U7#{sourceCellPk.GetUD7Name(api)}:
		U8#{sourceCellPk.GetUD8Name(api)}")
    'do other stuff...
