Hi guys, i am new to python. i am coding a buy/sell order instruction for interactive brokers api. Is there a way to simplify the code here?

es_nos  = 0
spy_nos = 0
nq_nos  = 1
qqq_nos = 2
rty_nos = 3
iwm_nos = 4
zb_nos  = 5
tlt_nos = 6

es_buy_sell  = 'buy' if es_nos > 0 else 'sell'
spy_buy_sell = 'buy' if spy_nos > 0 else 'sell'
nq_buy_sell  = 'buy' if nq_nos > 0 else 'sell'
qqq_buy_sell = 'buy' if qqq_nos > 0 else 'sell'
rty_buy_sell = 'buy' if rty_nos > 0 else 'sell'
iwm_buy_sell = 'buy' if iwm_nos > 0 else 'sell'
zb_buy_sell  = 'buy' if zb_nos > 0 else 'sell'
tlt_buy_sell = 'buy' if tlt_nos > 0 else 'sell'
