How do I place market bracket order through kiteconnect api

krishna56h

I am unable to place the market order for BO type. only limit order is getting executed

kite.order_place(tradingsymbol='SBIN',exchange='NSE',quantity=5,price=320,squareoff_value=1,stoploss_value=3,variety='bo',transaction_type='BUY',order_type='MARKET',product='MIS',validity='DAY')

I tried removing the price=320 however it is not getting executed. please share the workaround or correct syntax for the same. Thanks in advance

Hi,
The bracket order currently only supports limit order type. You need to place the order with price above last_price which will result in market order.
