Do you have roadmap to add Zerodha, an India broker?
Hi Rajesh,
At present we have one Indian broker live on the Blueshift platform, MasterTrust in addition to the other brokers (Alpaca and FXCM).
We are continuously working to expand this list. Follow us for more updates!
Hope this helps!
Hi, this is really surprising that an leading number one broker is not yet included for Algo trade even though they are providing well established APIs. I am waiting to take a course after supporting Algo with Zerodha.
The Blueshift integration with Zerodha can happen in future but not in the immediate/near future as we are yet to plan for it. Meanwhile, you can refer to this article to connect your strategy to Zerodha.

Thanks!
Is there any way I can write connector to kite api and run them on blueshift platform ?
(I dont know may be using IBridgePy)
No, this does not seem to be possible at the moment. You can write and run any Python code on the Blueshift platform as long as you stick to the whitelisted packages. Packages required to make kite api (or for that matter any apis) work is not part of the whitelist.
We are expanding our broker coverage and do have Zerodha on our list based on multiple users requesting for it. However, at present, the expected timeline on this is not very clear. The other option for you is to wait for the open source release of Blueshift (first quarter next year). At that point, you will be able to run blueshift locally from your PC and can connect to any broker you prefer using their SDK (or your own code).
