GTT placing error

vivekvs

self._getGTTPayload = function (params) {
if (params.trigger_type !== self.GTT_TYPE_OCO && params.trigger_type !== self.GTT_TYPE_SINGLE) {
throw new Error("Invalid `params.trigger_type`")
}


i think this should be if (params.trigger_type !== self.GTT_TYPE_OCO || params.trigger_type !== self.GTT_TYPE_SINGLE) {

line number 1057.. Kindly rectify

There is no error in the KiteConnect Node JS client.

You should learn basic programming(logical operators) first before doing algo trading.
Otherwise,you would write such posts and mislead other users.


You should learn about 'AND' operator(&& in Node JS) and 'OR' operator(|| in Node JS) .

The 'AND' operator only returns true when both of its operands are true,while the 'OR' operator will return true even if one of the operands is true.

Basically,if you use ||,it will throw an error even if the trigger_type is one of the accepted values.

Using && will only throw an error when the trigger_type is none of the accepted values.

i have set the like this

params.trigger_type='self.GTT_TYPE_SINGLE'; before passing it to kc.placeGTT(params)

SRIJAN

It should be kc.GTT_TYPE_SINGLE. Here,'kc' is the current initialised KiteConnect object.
And, don't use quotes around that.

Please read the documentation properly:
