Problem with input shape of Conv1d in tfagents sequential network

[ghost]

I have created a trading environment using tfagent

env = TradingEnv(df=df.head(100000), lkb=1000)
tf_env = tf_py_environment.TFPyEnvironment(env)

and passed a df of 100000 rows from which only closing prices are used which a numpy array of 100000 stock price time series data

df: Date Open High Low Close volume
0 2015-02-02 09:15:00+05:30 586.60 589.70 584.85 584.95 171419

at each step the agent has access to previous 1000 prices + current price of stock = 1001 and it can take 3 possible action from 0,1,2
then i wrapped it in TFPyEnvironment to convert it to tf_environment
the prices that the agent can observe is a 1d numpy array
prices = [584.95 582.3 581.7 ... 107.35 107.2 107.2 ]

TimeStep Specs

TimeStep Specs: TimeStep( {'discount': BoundedTensorSpec(shape=(), dtype=tf.float32, name='discount', minimum=array(0., dtype=float32), maximum=array(1., dtype=float32)), 'observation': BoundedTensorSpec(shape=(1001,), dtype=tf.float32, name='_observation', minimum=array(0., dtype=float32), maximum=array(3.4028235e+38, dtype=float32)), 'reward': TensorSpec(shape=(), dtype=tf.float32, name='reward'), 'step_type': TensorSpec(shape=(), dtype=tf.int32, name='step_type')}) Action Specs: BoundedTensorSpec(shape=(), dtype=tf.int32, name='_action', minimum=array(0, dtype=int32), maximum=array(2, dtype=int32))

then i build a dqn agent but i want to build it with a Conv1d layer
my network consist of
Conv1D,
MaxPool1D,
Conv1D,
MaxPool1D,
Dense_64,
Dense_32 ,
q_value_layer
i created a list layers using tf.keras.layers api and stored it in dense_layers list and created a Sequential Network

>but when i passed the q_net as a q_network to DqnAgent i came accross this error

i know it has something to do with the input shape of first layer of cov1d but cant figure out what am doing wrong
at each time_step the agent is reciveing a observation of prices of 1d array of length 1001 then the input shape of conv1d should be (1,1001) but its wrong and i don't know how to solve this error
need help
