Accounts here are created by the owner, not by signing up. It is a smaller, slower door on purpose.
You are given an email and a password. There is no public sign-up form on this server — if you should have access and do not, ask the person running it.
There is no email-based reset either, so a forgotten password is reset by the owner by hand — which signs out every session that account had.
Your password becomes a PBKDF2-SHA256 hash at 600,000 iterations with its own salt, and your session becomes a random token of which only the hash is kept. The details are on the security page.
One click, Zerodha's own login page, and the session that comes back is filed against your account and used only for your data. This site never sees your Zerodha password — you type it on Zerodha's page, not on this one.
Zerodha clears every access token each morning around 07:30 IST regardless of when it was issued. That makes this a once-a-morning step rather than a once-ever one. Their rule, not this tool's.
Your feed starts when you open the tool and stops a few minutes after you close it. Nobody else's activity touches your rate limit, and yours does not touch theirs.
| You need | Why |
|---|---|
| An account here | created by the owner; the login gates everything except these public pages |
| A Zerodha account | the candles and the option chain are read under your own session |
| Kite Connect access | the API side of Zerodha, billed apart from the trading account. The free personal plan carries no market data, so the paid one is the plan that works here — what it costs, and who is allowed to use it |
| A browser | that is all; there is nothing to install to use the website |
Zerodha's own pricing and permissions are between you and Zerodha, and they change. Check their current terms rather than taking a number from this page.
