Order placement error

ferdinand.sousa
When trying to close an long PE option position with the following parameters:
{'variety': 'regular', 'exchange': 'NFO', 'tradingsymbol': 'NIFTY2511623100PE', 'transaction_type': 'SELL', 'quantity': 75, 'product': 'NRML', 'order_type': 'SL', 'price': 125.4, 'trigger_price': 126.7, 'tag': ['POSITION-CLOSE']}

The API returned the following error:
kiteconnect.exceptions.InputException: Trigger price for stoploss sell orders should be lower than the last traded price (53.10). Use limit order to sell at a higher price. [Read more.](https://support.zerodha.com/category/trading-and-markets/margin-leverage-and-product-and-order-types/articles/what-are-stop-loss-orders-and-how-to-use-them)

But the charts say the price of NIFTY2511623100PE was way above 100 at that time. This was sometime between 9:17 and 9:18 am on 13-Jan-2025.
What does the 53.10 refer to?

    Hi @ferdinand.sousa ,

    Looks like there was an intermittent issue with the feed validating the order leading to this error. Would like you to reach out to our support team for further assistance.
