Not for now, but hopefully soon.

About the predictive market closing, is there an opportunity or not? hmm.. if u think there is no opportunity, there is no opportunity. If u think there is, then there is. That is how arbitrage works, if everyone thought alike, there would never be any opportunity in the first place.

One of the most important reasons we put this was because of the huge chaos that happens on expiry because of STT. This chaos is even more when markets close at levels like 7801 or 7998, you know very close to popular strike prices. Let me give you a real example.

A few expiry's back, this client had bought 200 lots of I think 7800 or 7700 calls (can't remember which one exact but one of these 7701 760) at Rs 15 around 3.10pm on expiry. The market was on its way down and at 3.25pm Nifty was around 7793, and he thought he has lost the entire Rs 15 and as the market was going to expire below the strike. The weighted average brought the closing up to 7801. So he was in the money by Rs 1, what this meant was that his option got exercised, so he ending up losing around Rs 300/lot as STT, Rs 60,000 in all, which he could have saved if he saw that the predictive closing would be higher than 7800.

As I said they are all small little things, but every such small thing keeps adding to a traders edge to win in the markets.

We are trying to build an interface where coding can be done using the above two languages and integrated on Pi. Documentation for C# and python is on the internet.

The idea with putting negative marks was to get people to come change the prediction if they are far away from the real market. This will make the crowd index more reliable.

Thanks for the reply. Not convincing though. Would still like to see negative marking done away with.

Hi
Zerodha,

1 ) I want to the margin requirement to sell a Sensex Option Cz I didn't find it to your span calculator ( please quote all order NRML/MIS/CO/BO margin ) ??

2 ) do you only charge 250 rs Transaction charge for BSE option trade or is there any Clearing charge you include later on it ??

3 ) Do I get BSE F&O Intraday chart in Z-Trader ?

4) Can I use margin of my NSE trading account to trade in BSE option or MCX SX / NSE currency future ??

Main problem with fully automated Algo trading is not go through exams and register as a dealer by paying fee.

Main problem is EVERYTIME we need to get an approval from exchange to run NEW algo script. :annoyed:
As behavior of market & volatility changes very fast we need to change our Algo too very fast. I need to implement new position sizing rule through my Algo when volatility changes. I need to mix up three four strategy to create a new algo and run instantly as market condition changes.

Algo Trading must be Flexible. Exchange must have instant back testing system for New Fully Automated Algo and instant approval (within few minutes).
They must trust the Algo Trader when he/she was go through their Exam.


Happy Trading.

When I said the documentation I meant the API
