Weird tradingsymbol in Instruments csv

KamalChhirang · December 2021

I downloaded the Instruments csv using this code:

for i in range(3):
    try:
        from io import StringIO
        header_data = {
             'X-Kite-Version': '3',
            'Authorization': 'token '+str(kite_rc)+":"+str(access_token_rc),
            'Content-Type': 'application/json'
        }
        r = requests.get('https://api.kite.trade/instruments',
                           headers=header_data)
        data = StringIO(r.text)
        instruments_df = pd.read_csv(data)
        break
    except Exception as e:
        print("Error",e)

and found a row with trading symbol name "AMBUJACEM30DEC2127JAN22FUT". Is this a bug?

This is a spread contract. Kite doesn't support trading in spread contracts. We have asked the team to remove this. In the meanwhile you can skip these spread contracts.

Howdy, Stranger!
