volume = 0 for every ticker in every tick

kiri

why so ?

SRIJAN

Please read the documentation properly:
https://kite.trade/docs/connect/v3/websocket/#quote-packet-structure

The volume is actually the volume traded for the day.

You would have fetched these quotes on a day when these contracts were not traded, hence 0 volume.

these contracts were traded .. but still volume is zero
u can see that the expiry was 25th and the current date of recording is 22

Exchange timestamp is the timestamp when the tick was sent by the exchange.

It doesn't necessarily mean that there was a trade at that timestamp.

here are all the ticks of nifty future i saved that day .... price changing . oi changing . volume is still 0

SRIJAN

This can't be. If there was any problem with the websocket on that day ,this forum would have been flooded with queries about this issue.

Not only this,the Kite web/app use the same websocket data. If there was an issue,every user of Kite would be asking this.

I also use Kite every day,there was no issue with volumes or any other data on that day.

This means there is some problem in your code, it's not retrieving the volume from the ticks correctly.

i have been encountering this issue since day 1 ..ever since my kite subscription started....didnt need the volume data at first but now i actually the need the volume , so have to sort this out .

kiri

kiri

kiri
