Kite connect API

Have anyone looked into this one

https://kite.trade/forum/categories/mobile-and-desktop-apps

Looks promising.


Orders can now be given thru kite now based on conditions. Streaming quotes are provided as welll

Yes, got an email regarding the same but don't know about it so much.
Can you please elaborate some more..........

I initially thought that it was for algorithmic trading, but turns out it's a tool to embed trading buttons on your webpage/blog etc.

Is my understanding correct?

Not exactly you can get quotes and put order programatically based on your conditions. Putting a html5 button is just an option to trigger.

Yes, but no auto trading, right?

This is basically a tool for programmers who want to build their own trading softwares baed on strategy or something.

So, basically, it is useful to programmers who are interested in building the trading software (automated or manual or semi-automated).

Any updates?

For Java/C++, there's always Interactive Brokers...

How about working on a piece of software which can place orders in Zerodha:
With or without Kite Connect API

KITE (FULL Automation) from Amibroker AFL generated signals:
1. Kite connects to Amibroker ver 6 via HTML5 technology for feeds
2. Amibroker has its own AFL (Amibroker Formula Language) generating buy/sell signals.
3. The Buy/Sell orders are placed into Zerodha's KITE automatically (web login would already be done) from Amibroker as and when signals are generated.

I think he wants to reverse engineer the whole API. Somebody already did similar thing in this forum.
