How to buy/sale ?

[GordonTraveler]

Hi.

First of all, great work! Love it. But 2 things are needed for algo trading... to buy and sale stocks, etc. :-)

Can you give me an example of how to buy and sale stocks with the API? Or maybe you can make a example file for it.
I don't get it from the documentation.

Thanks.

Currently not being supported, will add to my todo list, trying to add over the weekend!

[GordonTraveler]

That would be awesome. Thank you!

Any news about it?
How do you catch the API call of TR? Maybe I can help?

@Zarathustra2 Thank you very much Dario.
Can you give a short documentation or example? I don't understand all parameter.

self = object itself, nothing to enter. Right?
order_id = ?? Is it just a random number or shall I leave it empty?
isin = clear, ISIN of the stock
order_type = clear... buy or sell
size = The amount? Like "3.45"?
limit = The limit price I want to buy/sell at. Is there also a market order possible? TR offers 3 options: market order, limit order and stop order. The market order is the default. Usually I use the market order. Also, the TR app it is showing me the "ask price". From where do I get this price?
expiry = ?? Don't know.
exchange="LSX", = ?? Don't know.
callback=print, = Nothing to do here, I guess.

Thank you for your great work!

Note it's now possible to buy/sell from the web app

@GordonTraveler

order_id is set by you. Choose something there.

amount = size => The amount of shares you want to buy

I will try to market as well but I am not using TradeRepublic so might take time until I do it.

Expiry needs to be one of ["gfd", "gtd", "gtc"]

• gfd => Good for day
• gtd => good till date
• gtc => Good till cancel

Expiry is the exchange you want; just leave it as it is.
