Hi Everyone,
I noticed that GoldPetal futures are available from March to August based on the current date, but only the March, April, May, and June contracts are currently tradable.
Is there a way to check whether a given security is tradable before placing an order? I use algo trading and want to avoid failed orders due to non-tradable instruments.
The same issue applies to options like Nifty 25Dec 20000 PE — it’s available on some days but not others. How can I confirm its tradability without actually attempting to place a buy order?
Also, there have been instances where I accidentally placed a market order while trying to spoof one, which cost me the spread. A reliable way to verify tradability beforehand would really help avoid these costly mistakes.
Thanks,
Abhishek
