Introduction
Samco was founded by Jimeet Modi in 2015 with a mission of providing retail investors access to sophisticated financial technology that can assist retail investors in creating wealth at a low cost. Samco provides access to India Equities for clients in India with no minimum balance. Samco also provides stock ratings, mutual funds, and a mini-portfolio investment platform.
The Samco data provider serves live asset prices from Samco's Trade API. This page explains our integration with their API and its functionality.
Sourcing
The Samco data provider sources data directly from Samco's Trade API. If you use this data provider, Samco only provides the security price data. QuantConnect Cloud provides the following auxiliary datasets:

Bar Building
The Samco data provider consolidates prices and quotes across all of the Indian exchanges. For a complete list of exchange and securities, see the ScripMaster file from the StockNote API documentation.
Alternative Data
