Getting LTP through kite 3 API

nknaveen328

I am trying to get the LTP, Quote and ohlc but it just returns the argument i am passing. This is the format i am passing. Please point it out if i am doing anything wrong.

quote = kite.ltp('NSE:INFY') and how do i pass multiple instruments ?

nknaveen328

@sujith refering to the question. the api responds with just the argument passed. This is the response i get 'NSE:INFY'

sujith

You need to pass instruments like this,
instruments = ["NSE:INFY", "BSE:INFY"]

nknaveen328

tried them but the response is same.

@rakeshr here it is

instruments = ["NSE:INFY", "BSE:INFY"]

I just tried with same symbols and it works

kite.ltp(["NSE:INFY", "BSE:INFY"])

}

Please make sure you are using the latest release

pip install kiteconnect --upgrade --pre

using the latest version. Still the issue exists. No idea why it isn't working. But orders, holding and other functions are working fine

@nknaveen328,
You can enable debugging and check the final URL sent with header details.

@sujith Hi..
I am trying to fetch bid prices for an instrument by the below python code.
data=kite.quote.get("NFO:NMDC19JULFUT").depth.buy.get(4).getPrice();
some where my syntax is wrong. Can you please let me know the correct syntax to fetch depth of the buy price?

hii @Dileep
this worked for me
kite.quote("NFO:NMDC19JULFUT")['NFO:NMDC19JULFUT']['depth']['buy'][4]['price']

print('last_quantity=',dict_digger.dig(apiq,'data',inst_a1,'last_quantity',fail=True))
please try dict_digger, works charming....

ltp =(kite.ltp('NSE:'+str(stock))).get('NSE:'+str(stock),{}).get('last_price')

You can use this API to get only LTP quote.

How can I get LTP for ['NSE:NIFTY BANK']? It is giving empty. But working for ['NSE:INFY'].
