Order Types
GTT Order:
A GTT (Good Till Triggered) order is a feature enabling users to place buy or sell orders for any stock at a market or limit price. These orders are executed once the stock's market price reaches the desired price specified in the GTT order. GTT orders remain valid for one year and cannot be used for intraday trades due to their extended validity.
For instance, if IDFCFIRSTB trades at Rs 100 and an investor wishes to buy at Rs 85, they can place a GTT buy order at Rs 85. When the stock's price falls to Rs 85, the GTT order triggers, executing the purchase.
It is important to note that insufficient funds in the wallet balance can cause buy orders to fail, and also failure to verify holdings on the day of triggering can cause sell orders to fail.
This feature eliminates the need for daily price monitoring, allows setting trigger prices beyond the current circuit limits of the stock, and provides notifications when the entry price is breached, and the order is sent to the exchange.
Basket Order:
A basket order streamlines trading by allowing simultaneous execution of multiple orders. Similar to a shopping cart, it consolidates various securities into one transaction, saving time and enhancing efficiency. Retail investors track non-index stocks conveniently, while option traders efficiently execute complex strategies. Basket orders offer time-saving benefits, clarity in strategy evaluation, and capital optimisation through hedging. It's crucial to monitor margin requirements and choose between limit and market orders. In TradePoint Desktop, created baskets remain accessible post-execution, reducing repetitive tasks.
AMO (After Market Orders):
AMO allows traders to place buy or sell orders for stocks even when the regular market trading hours are closed. It provides the flexibility to submit orders outside of the market's operational hours, typically before or after the market closes. These orders are then executed once the market reopens.
Cover Orders:
A cover order is a type of order that combines a market order with a stop loss order. It is designed to help traders manage risk and protect their positions. When placing a cover order, the trader specifies the desired quantity to buy or sell at the market price and sets a trigger price for the stop-loss order. If the market reaches the trigger price, the stop loss order is activated, resulting in the automatic execution of the stop loss order at the prevailing market price.
Slicing:
Active traders looking to trade Large Quantity Orders can now slice their orders into multiple small orders (also called Child Orders) with Order Slicing in Zone Web. With Order Slicing, you can divide your orders into 2 to 25 Child Orders that will be executed one after the other.
Disclosed Quantity:
Disclosed quantity refers to an order type that allows traders to reveal only a part of their actual order size while keeping the original quantity confidential. When placing an order with a disclosed quantity, a trader specifies the total size of their order and the quantity they wish to disclose to the market. The disclosed quantity is the order portion visible to other market participants in market depth.
