That was for getQuote or LTP I am asking for placing orders? Can I use PlaceOrder APIs?

naveen278

I can use PlaceOrders API to buy Futures contract?

SRIJAN

Then why you didn't mention that your query is for order placing initially?

Do you understand anything at once?

None of the KiteConnect APIs are exclusive to any segment.

All the APIs like market quotes, websocket, historical data,place order, work for all the segments(cash, derivatives,commodity,currency).

naveen278

that is good then, any examples of how to place futures contract using placeorder will help

SRIJAN

Examples have been given in the official documentation.

Just remember,NFO is the exchange for equity derivatives.

I told you earlier that you have to use common sense API for this.
