I'm placing an order using Fyers API v3, and initially, it's in a Pending state. I track its status using the Orders API. Suppose this order gets filled/traded at 11:00 AM, and the position is exited at 12:00 PM.
Now, using the Order Book API, how can I determine which order is the exit order corresponding to the entry order placed at 11:00 AM?
One approach is to match orders based on the side and symbol fields from Orders API response — for example:
11:00 AM:
side = 1(Buy),symbol = NSE:NIFTY2570326900CE12:00 PM:
side = -1(Sell),symbol = NSE:NIFTY2570326900CE
However, this logic breaks down when trading the same symbol multiple times in a day — e.g., if another Buy-Sell trade happens between 2:00 PM and 3:00 PM, the Sell order at 3:00 PM (Exit) might incorrectly match with the Buy (Entry) at 11:00 AM.
I also checked the Positions API, but the orderId returned by the place_order API doesn't appear in the Positions API response.
