15-Minute NIFTY 50 Option based Zerodha Algo Trading
Summary
Freelancer Client is hiring: 15-Minute NIFTY 50 Option based Zerodha Algo Trading.
Location: Remote
I need a small, time-driven algo built on the Zerodha Kite Connect API for pure intraday trading. Instead of reacting to price or indicator signals, the script should fire entries and exits strictly by the clock, working off 15-minute candles throughout the session.
At a user-defined start time, read the current 15-minute candle and place the order logic I will specify (for now, buy or sell a fixed quantity; later I can tweak it).
Auto-square-off all open positions at market close (or at my chosen time) so nothing carries overnight.
Please structure the program so that the following parameters are easy for me to edit from the top of the file or a config JSON: symbol, quantity, start / stop times, and optional stop-loss & target points. Logging of each order with timestamp and status (success, rejected, partial) is essential for review.
Deliverable: a clean, well-commented script (Python preferred, but I’m open if you have a stronger suggestion) plus a quick README outlining required Kite API keys, environment variables, and the command to run it.
Skills: Python, Risk Management, JSON, Data Analysis, Financial Modeling, API Development, Market Analysis, Software Engineering, Backtesting, Financial APIs
Budget: $600–$1500 USD

• Auto-square-off all open positions at market close (or at my chosen time) so nothing carries overnight.

If you have already built similar intraday, time-slice strategies on Kite Connect, let me know—seeing a short demo or code snippet would help me choose quickly.
