Comment on BTST/ATST( Buy/Acquire Today Sell tomorrow)

Mayank,

When you buy and sell at a higher price, be it intraday or BTST or after delivery, you will 100% get the profits to you trading account. The risk is that when you do a BTST trade, you might not get delivery of a stock and hence you end up defaulting on your sale.

It is very similar to if you write a cheque on your bank account expecting another cheque that you had deposited to your account. If the cheque you deposited bounces, the cheque you gave also bounces.

Hope this clarifies,
