@nithin @MohammedFaisal Any update sir regarding KILL SWITCH feature ? Can you atleast release API key please ?
This is still in the works, Aditya
@nithin @MohammedFaisal sir, this is what I was looking for since long time. Auto kill switch based on number of trades would be game changer for retail traders I think. This is the only way left for us to control overtrading. I know it will have impact on brokerage you received but if you want you can charge for this feature. By when we can get this feature?

Thanks for the quick response 
Hello sir @nithin @MohammedFaisal ,
By when are you planning to release this feature ? Why a leading brokerage organization like you is taking too much time to deliver this ?
Friend you can self build a program in python for auto kill switch based on certain condition of your rules and you have only switch on your PC and run program after that it physcologically assist you as per your rules and you have trade only on mobile ,I had made it for me it is very useful for made you a discipline trader I had made and it’s very useful for me to trade with discipline because it’s very hard for me to control emotions on loss and hard to control revenge trading
i have been searching for this from past 2months how could i miss this…have u programmed in python or ?? r u a python programmer?? have u integrated with remote desktop or vps?
I write this program in python (u can use java also) because it is not using kiteconnect, zerodha allows two manual logins simultaneously one in smartphone and another in PC , i just use smartphone for trading and PC Login for monitoring my trades using python automated login , i just monitor no of trades pnl percentage if it crosses limit it will trigger my subroutine of kill switch , also i mask myself for login between 9:15 to 9:45 using this program and stoploss is also managed because it not triggerd instantly it will confirm loss three times 30 sec interval so that spikes not trigger my trade stoploss ,and trail profit also by using simple formulas only
, i am not a programmer, i am Electronics engineer
amazing to know , in fact im also trying to do same thing im not python programmer i tried few ai to do code for me but was not successful . im just focused on fixed number of trades and daily loss limit (its almost same infact ) …it makes us stay disciplined, im still trying … did u get this done by a programmer or ?? how did u do it??
can u please help me with same if possible.is there any possibility to connect
Punch trading app is about to launch this feature. I will soon shift there.
there they have daily and weekly limits.
Zerodha team you need to act quickly otherwise many people will shift there.
At least you can give us some 3rd party automation, phyton code through which we can set daily loss limit.

Hi All,
Is there any charges for enabling and disabling kill switch frequently?
Either profit or loss, I activated the kill switch to avoid overtrading. But I want to know if there is any charges associated with frequently using kill switch option in zerodha
Thanks in advance.
No charges.

Any update on limiting the number of trades per day option , just like kill switch option, it’s been more than year , pls bring this option.
Plz update …any update on this feature ?
Foe example You want to disable only nifty on expiry day?
@nithin Would you please enable this feature via kite api?
I have created an mtm based square off script in python, based on kite api, which works well.
Understand that kill switch is part of console which is a different webapp compared to kite, but if you could integrate it part of kite, we could handle things programmatically.
