KiteTicker keeps connecting and disconnecting

def on_ticks(ws, ticks):

			pickled_object = pickle.dumps(ticker)
			redisconn.lpush(str(ticker['instrument_token']),pickled_object)
			redisconn.set(getname(ticker['instrument_token']),pickled_object)

	logger.error("could not reconnect to to the ticker")	
	sendSlackNotification("all attempts to reconnect to ticker have failed please check server","TickerSystem","process")

kws.on_ticks = on_ticks
kws.on_connect = on_connect
kws.on_reconnect = on_reconnect
kws.on_noreconnect = on_noreconnect
kws.on_close = on_close

	kws.connect(disable_ssl_verification=True)

	kws.close()

• I am invoking disconnectTicker only when I close my process for the day, at the end of that day.
• The reason I using pickle is because Kite is sending python date time objects for all day fields, and sending pickled objects across pubsub helps me create data frames for computation much easier .
