What does quantity exactly mean while trading in future and option ?


  • Hello team,

    While trading in the future and option what does quantity mean in the holding response comes from the angel api. I mean is it display the quantity as a number of lot or the total qty.

    for example if i buy bank nifty 1 lot 25 qty so what will be the output of the getholding method response ? is it 1 (that means number of lot ) or 25 (means the total qty )

    Thanks.

    it means the number of units in lot

    Nifty 1 lot = 50 qty

    it means 50 while placing order or finding out netqty etc....
