Abstract

The ability of machines to efficiently execute complicated and high-frequency trading strategies has made algorithmic trading, or "algo trading," an essential part of the financial markets. With a focus on three well-known platforms like SmartAPI, Uplink, and Kite Connect this research paper offers an in-depth study of Python APIs in the context of the Indian financial markets. The basics of algorithm trading are covered in the first section of the study, along with the value of Python as a programming language for creating algorithmic techniques. The selection of Kite Connect, Uplink, and SmartAPI was driven by their notable positions in the Indian financial scene, each providing traders and developers with special features and functionalities. Factors including order execution speed, accuracy of market data, and the variety of supported financial instruments are considered in this study. Case studies and real-world examples show how each API is used in algorithmic trading scenarios. The study additionally looks at each API's WebSocket streaming capabilities, which are essential for real-time data updates in the market.
