@godboleamit +1, 4H is very very important. I am also looking for it. In absence of it, either I will have to downsample 1H data or use a different broker just to fetch 4H data.

@admin is there any way to retrieve the date on which an instrument was purchased? I want to track age of my holdings.

@namit the circular is not out yet, the above links that moderator has pasted especially from moneycontrol talks about something coming in by March-end.

I really really hope that it doesn't impact individual retail traders who are using APIs to automate trading in their personal account.

Hi @admin,

Can you please provide some clarity on SEBI's circular that is expected by March-end and it's implications on individual retail traders who use your API for trading in their personal account?

@godboleamit +1, 4H is very very important. I am also looking for it. In absence of it, either I will have to downsample 1H data or use a different broker just to fetch 4H data.

This is happening frequently. Every now and then the websocket stops sending data. All I get is heartbeats. I am tracking BANKNIFTY (symbol token 26009) and this is happening as I am writing this. Last week also it happened.

How do you expect us to develop strategy and automate the trades if your feed is not reliable?

@admin I am using FIVE_MINUTE as interval.

@admin Sorry it worked. I had given from date as 5th May 9:15 and endDate as 13th May 15:30. Then it wasn't working. But as soon as I changed the endDate to 5th May it worked.

At a time, we can specify only 1 day is it?

@admin ok thanks. But the API keeps returning AB2001. Even live streaming is not returning any data today.

I am trying to fetch candle data using SmartConnect::candleData and it is consistently responding with AB2001.

Also the documentation doesn't mention in what format the time should be specified in the request body? Is it 12 hours or 24 hours format?

Here is the solution. The candleData method tries to fetch REST API end point from Routes by doing a lookup for "api.candle.data" key. But to my surprise the Routes doesn't have any entry for api.candle.data.

So I updated the Routes.java file with following line,
put("api.candle.data","/rest/secure/angelbroking/historical/
v1/getCandleData");

After this the example code worked. I don't think this code was ever tested before publishing it.

My Indian mentality of getting things for free lured me to use these APIs but now I understand why are they free. I am acting as their tester. Thinking of switching to Zerodha Kite Connect.
