Orders (WebSockets) - Tick Class - tradable field (boolean)

gautamsatpathy

The com.zerodhatech.models.Tick class has a Boolean field called tradable.

    @SerializedName("tradable")
    private boolean tradable;

There is no mention of this field in the API Documentation.

In KiteConnect, it is set from the Binary data to false only when the instrument is an Index.

For Indices there won't be few fields, hence we set the bool tradable as false so that it can be used to check between tradable and non-tradable instruments.

And the Instrument Master API does not return any data to differentiate between tradable Instruments and Indices like NIFTY, BANKNIFTY, SENSEX, etc. Is that correct?

sujith

Yes, you are right. Instruments master doesn't have any context of any instrument is tradable or not.
