no i don,t want to use websocket or candle api i just want to know if i want to place limit order and i don,t know the exact price of that instrument,for that can i use function def quote() for price in kite connect api not websocket or candle api
I would suggest using websocket with mode full.Checkout https://kite.trade//docs/pykiteconnect/#kiteconnect.WebSocket
You can use getQuote also. But make sure you don't hit API rate limit. You can only make 3 requests per second.
API rate limit applies on all API calls not only for quote.
