RSI calculation or retrival.

parikh
Hello People,

Does the API provides a way to get RSI data ? I see that the ticks does not contain this information.
Does any other API call provides this information. ?

If not, how does the RSI value is calculated and which value does it use for calculation ?

BR,
Parikh

    Hi,
    Kite Connect is purely an execution platform. Kite Connect doesn't provide API for any indicators.
    You have to do calculations on your end and place order using Kite Connect.

    You can refer to this thread to know the formula for RSI.

    Thanks for your quick response. As RSI calculation involves time periods, do I need to have history data to accomplish this ?. How does browser display this information ? Does it compute using java script or does it get this information from API ?

    You can subscribe to historical data or you can store live market data and generate candles at your end.
    On Kite also it calculates on the go. We don't have API for this.
