Ccxt: Indicate whether unified methods require a symbol or not
It’d be super helpful if there was a way to tell ahead of time of fetchOrders, fetchMyTrades, etc… require a symbol parameter or not.
Some exchanges seem to have hard coded errors thrown when it’s missing, while others throw an API error.

@shnhrrsn we are working on adding that feature, as well as other flags for exchange capabilities. However, it might be much safer to design your logic in a way that would always pass a symbol. Have you considered this?

Unfortunately, I'm actually trying to do the opposite, get full trade history in a reliable way across multiple exchanges for any symbol traded.
In my case, if I don't need a symbol it's much faster since an exchange like GDAX will happily give the full history, where as when it's required I have to loop through the pairs one by one
