Will it be ok if we run strategies, placing orders and others, inside on_ticks routine?

Hi,
I want to run some strategies based on the data received by on_ticks handler. The code inside on_ticks handler might be huge. Will it be a good practice to place all codes of my strategies, placing orders, inside on_ticks handler?

I keep Kite API calls inside on_ticks handler but all other nw calls are done by child threads.

@ronstrader
You need to pass on the tick value to another thread from on_tick handler for any calculation, so main thread is not blocked.

Thanks krtrader and rakeshr. You help me get a direction.

Howdy, Stranger!
