Have a couple feature requests for kite focused around Options trading.
All the Data is already there it just needs an UI change to add the following to the existing watch list.
In the watch list can we add a customisable, 1. Open Interest + Open Interest Chg. & Chg. % for the strike price
2. Average Traded Price for the strike price
Attaching the menu where these could be added.
Currently the biggest challenge, I have as an Options traders is having to check with multiple pages and option chain. Leading to noise and delay in decision making specially for intraday trading.
Please let me know how feasible this is, or if it is already on your to do list.
I have been shopping around for a terminal that has these functionality just to have it for viewing and it used to be there in NEST, but I am an Apple user and am stuck to web based terminals so please help!!
A humble request from a long time fan and sticky customer!
Showing this next to the Last Traded Price (LTP) on the current MarketWatch layout is tricky. However, we’ve taken note of your suggestion. We’re developing our own option chain that will be integrated within Kite. I think this should be of some help to you.
why dont you integrate the samething here so that your dependency on updation also will be lot lesser and price updation and any unwanted stuff you can simply put on nse itself .
@Arockiya_Raja, appreciate the response and information! An integrated Option Chain in Kite will definitely be helpful, no doubt!
And since you are in the development phase, I would like to outline the context of why I am asking for a customisable watch list.
the current watch list helps with narrowing focus to the strike prices we are focused on (support / resistance levels, strategy levels etc.)
having to refer to an option chain just of OI & ATP means I have to look at additional data points across strikes I am not interested in, but in between strike prices which maybe ill liquid ex. 19550 will have a very different OI behaviour compared to highly liquid strikes such as 19500. this difference in OI behaviour leads to noise when viewing through the Option Chain.
Hence the request, I hope this helps nudge the design of the integrated option chain on kite to have similar features.
First adding custom columns in the chain (I really love the customisable columns that Sensibull has for the option chain) if you could add ATP for the day to the list of columns.
Second if there is a way to custom select the strikes I want to watch in the option chain and remove the rest.
This maybe easier and better than touching the existing market watch
Greek data is unavailable, and there is a need for multiple interactive options such as buy/sell, chart, and add-to-market watch buttons, which is not possible with the NSE option chain. Displaying the exchange website within the platform would not integrate well with the design of Kite. Having our own option chain provides greater flexibility in managing various aspects.
