Zerodha API Algo Trading Automation
Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR
I need an experienced developer to deploy my options-selling trading strategy on Zerodha Kite Connect (Python). IMPORTANT: The strategy is already fully designed, documented, and the core logic is written in Python and unit-tested. This is mostly INTEGRATION + TESTING + DEPLOYMENT, not strategy design.
WHAT'S ALREADY READY (I will share):
- Complete strategy specification document (every rule, formula, edge case defined)
- Core strategy engine in Python (tested, acceptance tests pass)
- Indicators (SMA, ATR, ADX), backtest skeleton, and a live-bot skeleton
WHAT I NEED YOU TO DO:
1. Review my existing Python strategy code against the spec
2. Integrate with Zerodha Kite Connect API (live 5-min option data + order placement)
3. Implement multi-leg basket orders (a hedge BUY first, then the main SELL) for margin reduction
4. Robust order management: order tracking, fill detection, partial fills, rejections, API timeouts, cancel-after-3-candles, and auto square-off at end of day
5. Multi-instrument scanning (~24 option strikes for NIFTY + SENSEX, both CE & PE, simultaneously)
6. Build a backtest using Kite historical data and validate against my 3 months of real trade journal (the bot must TAKE my winning setups and SKIP the rule-violation ones)
7. Help me run it in paper / DRY-RUN mode first, then deploy live
MUST HAVE:
- 3+ live Zerodha Kite Connect bots built before (please share examples)
- Strong Python + options trading + multi-leg order experience
- India-based preferred (timezone + API access)
- Willing to work milestone-based
PLEASE ANSWER IN YOUR BID:
1. How many live Kite Connect bots have you deployed?
2. How do you handle order rejections, partial fills, and API timeouts?
3. Do you have experience with multi-leg / basket (hedge) orders?
4. Your time + cost estimate?
Note: I will provide API keys myself on my own machine - please do not ask me to share keys. I will share the full spec + code with shortlisted developers. Since the logic is done, I'm looking for a clean, safe, well-tested deployment.
