indmoney

INDmoney (INDstocks) ticks.

INDstocks names an instrument as SEGMENT:TOKEN - NSE:2885, NFO:35001, NIDX:40000001 - with equity on NSE and BSE, derivatives on NFO and BFO and indices on NIDX and BIDX, and stores the bare token. No INDstocks token collided across segments on 2026-09-13, but the segment still narrows the search so that one never silently does.

What INDmoney's values mean, as measured on the feed's full mode against Zerodha's ticks received at the same moment during the session of 2026-09-15, on TCS, INFY, ICICIBANK, RELIANCE and HDFCBANK:

  • close is not the previous close but the last price: HDFCBANK read 722.25 as both, where the previous close was 708.25. It is never used; the previous close comes from an earlier owner's tick the same day instead.
  • Prices are rupees: last price, open, high and low matched Zerodha's.
  • Quantities are units: INFY and ICICIBANK volumes matched Zerodha's exactly.
  • Both times are true instants: the last trade time matched Zerodha's to within three seconds and the exchange timestamp to within two, and ticks arrived 0.8 seconds after it.

The feed sends no last quantity, average price or order book quantities, and INDstocks streams no MCX.

Classes:

Name Description
IndmoneyTickNormalizer

Normalizes INDmoney ticks.

IndmoneyTickNormalizer

IndmoneyTickNormalizer()

Bases: TickNormalizer

Normalizes INDmoney ticks.

Build the lookup from each INDstocks segment name to the canonical segments it can hold.

The table is worked out once here from SEGMENTS, so feed_key only has to look a tick's segment name up rather than recompute its segments on every call.

Example programs

examples/stock_brokers/instruments/ticks/indmoney/IndmoneyTickNormalizer/example_1_placing_feed_tokens.py
"""Places INDmoney feed tokens, spelled `SEGMENT:TOKEN`, on the canonical segments they can be in.

An INDstocks token names a segment before a colon: NSE and BSE are shares, NFO and BFO are derivatives, and NIDX and BIDX are indices. A bare token the feed could not place, or a segment INDmoney does not serve such as MCX, prints `None`.

The normalizer only works on the text of each token, so the program needs no Redis, database, network or stand-in of any kind. Each output line shows a token as the feed spells it, then the broker token that `unified.broker_mappings` is searched with, the order symbol when the broker names instruments by symbol, and how many canonical segments the search is limited to, with the first of them. A token the normalizer cannot place prints `None`.

"""Normalizes one INDmoney tick for a NIFTY future, whose quantities are already in units.

INDmoney reports derivative quantities in units rather than lots, so every multiplier is 1, and a future carries open interest. Its `close` is never the previous session's close, so `reported_close` is None both before and after the session ends.

The plan that `normalize` applies is normally compiled by `TickResolver` from the mapping cache. This program builds it by hand with the same rules, asking the normalizer how it reports each quantity field and when its close may be trusted, so it needs no database. The tick is shaped like the ones the broker's market feed publishes, with fixed times, so the output is the same on every run. The program normalizes the tick twice, once as received before the session's close and once as received after it, which only changes whether `reported_close` is kept. Order book levels are printed as (price, quantity, orders).

_instant

_instant(value, received_at)

A broker timestamp as a true epoch, or None when it is missing or implausible.

Brokers that stamp times on a shifted clock have that corrected in their market feed; what is left to catch here is a clock nobody has corrected yet, which shows as an instant days away from when the tick arrived.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
value float | int | None

Epoch seconds as the feed published them.

required
received_at float

When the feed decoded the tick.

required

Returns:

Type Description
float | None

The instant, or None.
