Get Quote [LTP / Marketdepth (ASK & BID)] without subscribing to websocket #249

Closed qFactorin closed 3 years ago

qFactorin commented 3 years ago

Hi Krishna,

Is there a way to fetch just quote information without having to subscribe to web socket streaming.

Not trying to compare products here, but on Zerodha Kite I use kite.quote to fetch this information. And is quite convenient.

I just need LTP and Market depth of a symbol in every 5 minutes, Subscribing to symbol streaming is an overkill for my purpose. And the connection termination / unsubscribing is not always clean.

Any assistance here would be really helpful. Thank you in advance.

No. You've to subscribe to get quote.

Ok, thank you for confirming.

Hi @qFactorin have you got any solution to this? Also @krishnavelu it would be very convenient if you can do something like what zerodha had done for LTP values.Thanks

Zerodha has implemented in it’s server. That’s why api also provides the same. Alice doesn’t provide this. So cannot be done in api. Make a small function which subscribes and unsubscribe immediately.
