Hi I am using this code and cant understand why this is happening. As soon as it places the order it also exits it. I am placing the order and then creating a stop loss order for it with the code below. Any help please.
def placeBNOrder(symbol, buy_sell, quantity, sl_price): # Place an intraday market order on NSE if buy_sell == "buy": t_type = kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_BUY t_type_sl = kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_SELL elif buy_sell == "sell": t_type = kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_SELL t_type_sl = kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_BUY
# Place the market order market_order_response = kite.place_order( tradingsymbol=symbol, exchange=kite.EXCHANGE_NFO, transaction_type=t_type, quantity=quantity, order_type=kite.ORDER_TYPE_MARKET, product=kite.PRODUCT_MIS, variety=kite.VARIETY_REGULAR )
if market_order_response: market_order_id = market_order_response["order_id"] print("Main Buy Order ID:", market_order_id)
# Wait for the market order to complete max_retries = 10 retries = 0 while retries < max_retries: time.sleep(2) # Wait for a few seconds before checking order status order_status = kite.order_status(order_id=market_order_id) if order_status and order_status["status"] == "COMPLETE": # If the market order is complete, place the SL order try: sl_order_response = kite.place_order( tradingsymbol=symbol, exchange=kite.EXCHANGE_NFO, transaction_type=t_type_sl, quantity=quantity, order_type=kite.ORDER_TYPE_LIMIT, trigger_price=sl_price, price=sl_price, product=kite.PRODUCT_MIS, variety=kite.VARIETY_REGULAR ) if sl_order_response: sl_order_id = sl_order_response["order_id"] print("Stop Loss Order ID:", sl_order_id) else: print("Failed to place Stop Loss order.") except Exception as e: print(f'Error placing SL for addon position for {symbol}, SL to be set {sl_price}.') print(e) return retries += 1
# If market order is not completed after the retries, cancel the order kite.cancel_order(order_id=market_order_id, variety=kite.VARIETY_REGULAR) print("Market order not executed. Order cancelled.") else: print("Failed to place Market order.")
