ORDER= [
{
"exchange":"NFO",
"tradingsymbol": "NIFTY20OCTFUT",
"transaction_type": kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_SELL,
"quantity": 1,
"order_type": "LIMIT",
"product": "NRML",
"price": 11450
},
{
"exchange":"NFO",
"tradingsymbol": "NIFTY20OCTFUT",
"transaction_type": kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_SELL,
"quantity": 1,
"order_type": "LIMIT",
"product": "NRML",
"price": 12000
}]
trigger_id = kite.place_gtt(trigger_type=kite.GTT_TYPE_OCO, tradingsymbol='NIFTY20OCTFUT', exchange='NFO', trigger_values=[11450,12000], last_price=11894,orders=ORDER)

You can refer above sample example.

Shouldn't the first order type be 'STOPLOSS' (SL)?

@ronstrader the first order is sl. This gtt is for selling. Means after you buy it,to squareoff. So ,the first order is sl. And second one is target. When one of the two is triggered,the other one is cancelled.

Hi @rakeshr
Here is my code for gtt oco order

def placeGTT(symbol,quantity,sl_price, target, ltp,buy_sell):


t_type=kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_SELL

if buy_sell == "buy":
t_type=kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_BUY

elif buy_sell == "sell":
t_type=kite.TRANSACTION_TYPE_SELL

order_dict = [{"transaction_type": t_type, "quantity": quantity,
'order_type': kite.ORDER_TYPE_LIMIT, "product": kite.PRODUCT_MIS , "price": sl_price},
{"transaction_type": t_type, "quantity": quantity,
'order_type': kite.ORDER_TYPE_LIMIT, "product": kite.PRODUCT_MIS , "price": target}
]
kite.place_gtt(kite.GTT_TYPE_OCO, symbol, kite.EXCHANGE_NSE, [sl_price, target], ltp, order_dict)



The problem is when gtt for target is triggering it showing error that insufficiennt holding and you are taking a CNC order but as you can see in the code I am placing MIS order for both Stoploss and target. Please help it is urgent.

MIS for equity is not allowed for GTTs. You can only use CNC product.
