Hello @Tradehull_Imran Sir,

I am trying to access the existing code which you provided in google drive

I am getting below error:

8. Tick By TICK Option Chain.py"
Codebase Version 3
-----Logged into Dhan-----
reading existing file all_instrument 2025-02-26.csv
Got the instrument file
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "c:/Projects/Algo_Web/AlgoPython/AdvanceAlgo/8. Tick By TICK Option Chain.py", line 22, in <module>
    atm_strike, option_chain = tsl.get_option_chain(Underlying="NIFTY", exchange="INDEX", expiry=1,num_strikes=15)
TypeError: get_option_chain() got an unexpected keyword argument 'num_strikes'

I checked with latest Dhan_Tradehull lib file that get_option_chain() defination contains no parameter called num_strikes. Can you share latest Dhan_Tradehull lib file?

Thanks,
Sudip
