- Removed check for enabled exchanges, you can now download or search symbols from MCX as well if it is not enabled
- TOTP SECRET or TOTP both can be given as argument while creating AlphaTrade object (if it is 6 digits it will conside TOTP else TOTP SECRET)
- Added new search function to search scrips which will return json for found scrips, you need to process it further
- More functions to come.
- Check whether streaming websocket is working or not
- The
examples
folder is removed and examples are renamed and kept in root directory for ease of development
- Clone the repo locally -
git clone https://github.com/algo2t/alphatrade.git
- Create a virtualenv -
python -m pip install virtualenv
and thenpython -m virtualenv venv
and activate thevenv
environment. - Install dev-requirement.txt -
python -m pip install -r dev-requirements.txt
- this is to ensuresetuptools==57.5.0
is installed. There is a bug withprotlib
, target is to get reed ofprotlib
in future - Install requirement.txt -
python -m pip install -r requirement.txt
- Create the
config.py
file in root of cloned repo withlogin_id
,password
andTOTP
SECRET, you can add theaccess_token.txt
if you want to use existingaccess_token
. - Try the examples
python zlogin_example.py
,python zexample_sas_login.py
,python zhistorical_data.py
andpython zstreaming_data.py
- Expecting issues with the streaming data !!! :P
The Python APIs for communicating with the SAS Online Alpha Trade Web Platform.
Alpha Trade Python library provides an easy to use python wrapper over the HTTPS APIs.
The HTTP calls have been converted to methods and JSON responses are wrapped into Python-compatible objects.
Websocket connections are handled automatically within the library.
This work is completely based on Python SDK / APIs for AliceBlueOnline.

There is only one class in the whole library: AlphaTrade
. When the AlphaTrade
object is created an access token from the SAS Online alpha trade server is stored in text file access_token.txt
in the same directory. An access token is valid for 24 hours. See the examples folder with config.py
file to see how to store your credentials.
With an access token, you can instantiate an AlphaTrade object again. Ideally you only need to create an access_token once every day.
The original REST API that this SDK is based on is available online. Tradelabs API documentation
The whole library is equipped with python‘s logging
module for debugging. If more debug information is needed, enable logging using the following code.
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.DEBUG)
- Import alphatrade
from alphatrade import *
- Create
config.py

Getting master contracts allow you to search for instruments by symbol name and place orders.
Master contracts are stored as an OrderedDict by token number and by symbol name. Whenever you get a trade update, order update, or quote update, the library will check if master contracts are loaded. If they are, it will attach the instrument object directly to the update. By default all master contracts of all enabled exchanges in your personal profile will be downloaded. i.e. If your profile contains the following as enabled exchanges ['NSE', 'BSE', 'CDS', 'MCX', NFO']
all contract notes of all exchanges will be downloaded by default. If you feel it takes too much time to download all exchange, or if you don‘t need all exchanges to be downloaded, you can specify which exchange to download contract notes while creating the AlphaTrade object.
sas = AlphaTrade(login_id=config.login_id, password=config.password, twofa=totp, access_token=config.access_token, master_contracts_to_download=['NSE', 'BSE'])
This will reduce a few milliseconds in object creation time of AlphaTrade object.
Symbols can be retrieved in multiple ways. Once you have the master contract loaded for an exchange, you can get an instrument in many ways.
Get a single instrument by it‘s name:
tatasteel_nse_eq = sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('NSE', 'TATASTEEL')
reliance_nse_eq = sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('NSE', 'RELIANCE')
ongc_bse_eq = sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('BSE', 'ONGC')
india_vix_nse_index = sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('NSE', 'India VIX')
sensex_nse_index = sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('BSE', 'SENSEX')
Get a single instrument by it‘s token number (generally useful only for BSE Equities):
ongc_bse_eq = sas.get_instrument_by_token('BSE', 500312)
reliance_bse_eq = sas.get_instrument_by_token('BSE', 500325)
acc_nse_eq = sas.get_instrument_by_token('NSE', 22)
Get FNO instruments easily by mentioning expiry, strike & call or put.
bn_fut = sas.get_instrument_for_fno(symbol = 'BANKNIFTY', expiry_date=datetime.date(2019, 6, 27), is_fut=True, strike=None, is_call = False)
bn_call = sas.get_instrument_for_fno(symbol = 'BANKNIFTY', expiry_date=datetime.date(2019, 6, 27), is_fut=False, strike=30000, is_call = True)
bn_put = sas.get_instrument_for_fno(symbol = 'BANKNIFTY', expiry_date=datetime.date(2019, 6, 27), is_fut=False, strike=30000, is_call = False)
Search for multiple instruments by matching the name. This works case insensitive and returns all instrument which has the name in its symbol.
all_sensex_scrips = sas.search_instruments('BSE', 'sEnSeX')
print(all_sensex_scrips)
The above code results multiple symbol which has ‘sensex’ in its symbol.
[Instrument(exchange='BSE', token=1, symbol='SENSEX', name='SENSEX', expiry=None, lot_size=None), Instrument(exchange='BSE', token=540154, symbol='IDFSENSEXE B', name='IDFC Mutual Fund', expiry=None, lot_size=None), Instrument(exchange='BSE', token=532985, symbol='KTKSENSEX B', name='KOTAK MAHINDRA MUTUAL FUND', expiry=None, lot_size=None), Instrument(exchange='BSE', token=538683, symbol='NETFSENSEX B', name='NIPPON INDIA ETF SENSEX', expiry=None, lot_size=None), Instrument(exchange='BSE', token=535276, symbol='SBISENSEX B', name='SBI MUTUAL FUND - SBI ETF SENS', expiry=None, lot_size=None)]
Search for multiple instruments by matching multiple names
multiple_underlying = ['BANKNIFTY','NIFTY','INFY','BHEL']
all_scripts = sas.search_instruments('NFO', multiple_underlying)
Instruments are represented by instrument objects. These are named-tuples that are created while getting the master contracts. They are used when placing an order and searching for an instrument. The structure of an instrument tuple is as follows:
Instrument = namedtuple('Instrument', ['exchange', 'token', 'symbol',
'name', 'expiry', 'lot_size'])
All instruments have the fields mentioned above. Wherever a field is not applicable for an instrument (for example, equity instruments don‘t have strike prices), that value will be None
Once you have master contracts loaded, you can easily subscribe to quote updates.
You can subscribe any one type of quote update for a given scrip. Using the LiveFeedType
enum, you can specify what type of live feed you need.
LiveFeedType.MARKET_DATA
LiveFeedType.COMPACT
LiveFeedType.SNAPQUOTE
LiveFeedType.FULL_SNAPQUOTE
Please refer to the original documentation here for more details of different types of quote update.
sas.subscribe(sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('NSE', 'TATASTEEL'), LiveFeedType.MARKET_DATA)
sas.subscribe(sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('BSE', 'RELIANCE'), LiveFeedType.COMPACT)
Subscribe to multiple instruments in a single call. Give an array of instruments to be subscribed.
sas.subscribe([sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('NSE', 'TATASTEEL'), sas.get_instrument_by_symbol('NSE', 'ACC')], LiveFeedType.MARKET_DATA)
Note: There is a limit of 250 scrips that can be subscribed on total. Beyond this point the server may disconnect web-socket connection.

Subscribe to market status messages
sas.subscribe_market_status_messages()
Getting market status messages.
print(sas.get_market_status_messages())
Example result of get_market_status_messages()

Note: As per alice blue
documentation all market status messages should be having a timestamp. But in actual the server doesn‘t send timestamp, so the library is unable to get timestamp for now.

Order properties such as TransactionType, OrderType, and others have been safely classified as enums so you don‘t have to write them out as strings
Transaction types indicate whether you want to buy or sell. Valid transaction types are of the following:
TransactionType.Buy
- buyTransactionType.Sell
- sell
Order type specifies the type of order you want to send. Valid order types include:
OrderType.Market
- Place the order with a market priceOrderType.Limit
- Place the order with a limit price (limit price parameter is mandatory)OrderType.StopLossLimit
- Place as a stop loss limit orderOrderType.StopLossMarket
- Place as a stop loss market order
Product types indicate the complexity of the order you want to place. Valid product types are:
ProductType.Intraday
- Intraday order that will get squared off before market closeProductType.Delivery
- Delivery order that will be held with you after market closeProductType.CoverOrder
- Cover orderProductType.BracketOrder
- One cancels other order. Also known as bracket order

Here is an example moving average strategy using alpha trade web API. This strategy generates a buy signal when 5-EMA > 20-EMA (golden cross) or a sell signal when 5-EMA < 20-EMA (death cross).
Here is an example for getting historical data using alpha trade web API.
For historical candles data start_time
and end_time
must be provided in format as shown below.
It can also be provided as timedelta
. Check the script zhistorical_data.py
in examples.
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
start_time = datetime(2020, 10, 19, 9, 15, 0)
end_time = datetime(2020, 10, 21, 16, 59, 0)
df = sas.get_historical_candles('MCX', 'NATURALGAS OCT FUT', start_time, end_time, 5)
print(df)
end_time = start_time + timedelta(days=5)
df = sas.get_historical_candles('MCX', 'NATURALGAS NOV FUT', start_time, end_time, 15)
print(df)
For intraday or today‘s / current day‘s candles data.
df = sas.get_intraday_candles('MCX', 'NATURALGAS OCT FUT')
print(df)

Before creating an issue in this library, please follow the following steps.
- Search the problem you are facing is already asked by someone else. There might be some issues already there, either solved/unsolved related to your problem. Go to issues page, use
is:issue
as filter and search your problem. - If you feel your problem is not asked by anyone or no issues are related to your problem, then create a new issue.
- Describe your problem in detail while creating the issue. If you don‘t have time to detail/describe the problem you are facing, assume that I also won‘t be having time to respond to your problem.
- Post a sample code of the problem you are facing. If I copy paste the code directly from issue, I should be able to reproduce the problem you are facing.
- Before posting the sample code, test your sample code yourself once. Only sample code should be tested, no other addition should be there while you are testing.
- Have some print() function calls to display the values of some variables related to your problem.
- Post the results of print() functions also in the issue.
- Use the insert code feature of github to inset code and print outputs, so that the code is displayed neat.
