Accessing intraday minute data ?

sameer
How to access intraday minute data for one or multiple scrips for
i) last N minutes OR
ii) some minute range ?

Whats API for it ?

I am not able to find API here:
https://kite.trade/docs/pykiteconnect/#kiteconnect.KiteConnect.historical

I guess you have introduced this API in Kite 3.0

    Hi,
    There is no bulk fetch APIs for historical data.
    You can fetch data of a particular interval within a day like this.

    Hi Sujith,
    I want to fetch latest minute candle data for 500 symbols per minute...what's per second rate limit to get minute data ? If small then are u planning to increase it in near future ?

    Thanks and regards

    Hi,
    Historical data API is limited to three requests per second. As of now, we don't have any plans for increasing the rate limit.
    For the above use case, I would suggest generating candles at your end using the live market data provided using Kite ticker.

    I cannot get intraday data before 2015-02-02 for Nifty stocks. Is there a limit? Why so?
  • sujith
    Can you paste the error message here?
  • ytomar
    There is no error code. Just that the return value is empty.

    kite.historical_data(instrument_id=dh.get_icode_from_ticker("RELIANCE"),
    start_date="2015-01-02", end_date="2015-01-07",
    window="minute")

    returns [] for this period or any period before it.

    For any date after 2015-02-02 valid response is returned by the same query.

    We have intra-day data from 02 Feb 2015 for this instrument.
  • ytomar
    The same is true for all nifty stocks. Do you say that you dont have data before 2015-02-02 for all nifty stocks?

    We have backfilled data using multiple sources. I am not sure about the exact dates for each instrument but we have intra-day candles data for only three to four years.
