    @sujith bit confused, then what is sellQuantity? From above it seems you said buyQuantity = SUM(Pending Total Quantity + Pending Total Sell Quantity)

    Also, how can i get the total executed buyQuantity of the day?

    The total buy quantity is the sum of all the buy pending order quantities at the exchange and total sell quantity is sum of all the pending sell order quantity at the exchange.

    A trade can only happen when there is someone buying and selling. So there is nothing called buyQuantity of the day.
    There is only quantity of the day.
