Kite Ticks - For INDICES absolute change is received and for equity percentage change

RajR

Hi,

I am checking the field change in package com.zerodhatech.models. For INDICES, like NIFTY 50, I am getting absolute change; where as for stocks I am getting percentage change. Is this expected behaviour?

Thanks

Hi @RajR,
For indices the exchange is sending the value, but for other segments we are calculating the value.

Can you calculate the change at your end for now? We will make changes in next release.

Here is the pseudo code,

change = lastPrice - closePrice

change% = (lastPrice - closePrice) * 100 / closePrice

For non-indices segments, exchange is sending 0 as the value always. Hence we overwrite it.

Thank you very much @sujith
