Delay in Retrieving LTP Using Python Kite API

dhurkesh

Hi all,
I am trying to retrieve the Last Traded Price (LTP) of NFO:BANKNIFTY2311942200CE and NFO: BANKNIFTY2311942200PE using the python kite library's kite.ltp() function every second. However, I am experiencing an issue where it takes more than one second to retrieve the data, on average every 2 minutes. I am not sure why this is happening and would like to understand the reason for this behavior. I have attached a screenshot of my code. I am using python APScheduler for scheduling.

sing the python kite library's kite.ltp() function every second.

Quote API is not meant for continuous polling. You should use websocket streaming as per your use case.
