Fetching historical data : In-correct or discrepency

vishwas
@sujith as i have subscribed for historic data, i see many candle data from it are IN-CORRECT. Due to which even backtesting is failing. I receive close price X from API and on chart its X+4 or any other number. Can you please explain the reason? or any way to get accurate historic data? if required i can share you screen shots.

    - and i saw other threads where you mentioned Historic API is for backtesting purpose and not ideal for live strategies. Agreed but , atleast after market data should be accurate right? please explain if m missing something here.

    Both kite web and historical API use the same data source, so it shouldn't be different. Can you paste here the values from both sources?

    @rakeshr Sure. Please check this screen shot.

    @rakeshr the 11 am candle for example. Very drastic difference. N no ways we can relay on data if so much difference. Can you please check n look into this.

    You seem to be using the Heikin Ashi chart type on kite web charts. You need to change it to default Candle type from the chart types icon and compare.

    Honestly this was not the replay i was expecting. M a technical guy as well. So i have double checked it. N definitely there is a mismatch. Please check with you tech team once and revert.
