com.zerodhatech.models.Tick - lastTradedQuantity

gautamsatpathy

Why is the lastTradedQuantity in com.zerodhatech.models.Tick a double? The documentation on https://kite.trade/docs/connect/v3/websocket/ mentions it to be int32 but the Java code is "double".

My mistake. The "int32" is the size in Bytes (4 bytes) of the field in the Binary Payload, right? But why is the lastTradedQuantity field a double in Java Tick class?

sujith

It is double because it can have decimal values.

gautamsatpathy

Oh? Fractional Quantity?

Is that to support ETFs? No other instrument can have fractional quantities, right? Or am I missing something here?

sujith

Ah sorry, my bad. I read it as last traded price. You are right, last traded quantity is an int. We will update in next release.

Oka. Thanks @sujith. Will cast to int in my code in the meantime.
