how to fetch crude oil option ltp , bit confused with segment , shud i use NSE_FNO or MCX_COMM
They do not have crude oil option chain data fetching function yet. Please wait till they bring - God know when
Hey @butta12 ,
To fetch option chain data for Crude Oil, mention the exchange segment as MCX_COMM and use the security ID of any option contract.
for example for Gold option data:
dhan.option_chain(
under_security_id=481575,
under_exchange_segment=“MCX_COMM”,
expiry=“2025-11-26”
)
Same error for long now -----Logged into Dhan-----
reading existing file all_instrument 2025-11-08.csv
Got the instrument file
Dhan Master file saved as dhan_master_file.csv
[‘FUTCUR’ ‘OPTCUR’ ‘OPTSTK’ ‘OPTIDX’ ‘FUTSTK’ ‘FUTIDX’ ‘EQUITY’ ‘INDEX’
‘FUTCOM’ ‘OPTFUT’]
Fetching Option Chain for Security ID: 481575 on MCX_COMM…
An error occurred while fetching the option chain: ‘Tradehull’ object has no attribute ‘option_chain’
Hey @raj001 ,
Thanks for bringing this up @Tradehull_Imran might be able to assist here.
Thank you @Tradehull_Imran could you please check this. otherwise, I have to move to Zerodha.
Below is the code @Tradehull_Imran and @Shrutika_Poojari @PravinJ
import time
from datetime import datetime
import pandas as pd
import talib
import traceback
from Dhan_Tradehull_V2 import Tradehull
— DHAN LOGIN —
— DHAN LOGIN —
CLIENT_ID = " your CLIENT_ID"
ACCESS_TOKEN = “your token details”
print(“Initializing Tradehull connection…”)
tsl = Tradehull(client_code, token_id)
Initialize the official dhanhq client for data fetching
dhan = Tradehull(CLIENT_ID, ACCESS_TOKEN)
URL for the compact master file (lighter to download)
MASTER_URL = pd.read_csv(“https://images.dhan.co/api-data/api-scrip-master-detailed.csv”, low_memory=False)
— SAVE THE DATAFRAME —
MASTER_URL.to_csv(‘dhan_master_file_01.csv’, index=False)
print(“ Dhan Master file saved as dhan_master_file.csv”)
------------------------------------
— 2. DYNAMICALLY FIND THE CRUDE OIL SCRIP ID (Optional step for context) —
a = MASTER_URL.INSTRUMENT.unique()
print(a)
indexdf=MASTER_URL[MASTER_URL.INSTRUMENT == ‘OPTFUT’]
NAME_01 =indexdf[(indexdf.DISPLAY_NAME == ‘CRUDEOIL 17 NOV 5400 CALL’)]
print(NAME_01)
opt_crd=dhan.option_chain(
under_security_id =467015,
under_exchange_segment=‘MCX_COMM’,
expiry=‘2025-11-17’
)
print(opt_crd)
Assuming dhan object is correctly initialized
from dhanhq import dhanhq
dhan = dhanhq(CLIENT_ID, ACCESS_TOKEN)
1. Define Parameters for Crude Oil Options
CRUDEOIL_FUTURE_ID = “481575”
EXCHANGE = “MCX_COMM”
INSTRUMENT = “OPTFUT” # Options on Commodity Futures
try:
# *** Use the V2 Python Client standard parameters ***
option_chain_data = dhan.option_chain(
under_security_id=481575,
under_exchange_segment= MCX_COMM,
expiry=2025-11-26
)
# ... rest of your code to process the DataFrame
# option_chain_df = pd.DataFrame(option_chain_data.get('optionChain', []))
# ...
except Exception as e:
print(f" An error occurred while fetching the option chain: {e}")
