Trading Q&A
Traders,
Today, we announce the launch of Trading Q&A — tradingqna.com, a new initiative in our quest to empower retail traders & investors with knowledge.
In 2012, we started Z-Connect as a way to converse and connect with you and to provide you with up-to-date information on all aspects of trading with us. Soon, Z-Connect grew into something bigger, a very active educational portal covering a wide variety of topics on trading and markets. We were immensely happy that the trading community, you, embraced Z-Connect and sparked countless insightful discussions. However, we also realised that it is not an easy endeavour to produce, classify, and disseminate quality information, and definitely not by one or two people in the form of a blog. We realised that it was the need of the hour to have a better platform, much better than anything that is currently available to the Indian trading and investment community, given the pitiful state of the popular trading forums out there that severely lack quality, spread misinformation, and are painful to use.
Enter Trading Q&A—a community maintained, self-curated, question and answer site for all things related to trading and stock markets. It is absolutely free to use, open, and community powered. Unlike a forum, where discussions often turn long winded and useful information gets lost in the countless pages spawned by threads, Trading Q&A enables you to ask a question and get direct, to the point answers from the community. Members of the community vote up or down questions and answers posted based on the quality and merit of the content, and as a result, good questions and good answers naturally rise to the top. An open and democratic way of learning and sharing knowledge.
tradingqna.com
How does it work?
- Ask a question pertaining to trading and markets
- Wait for the community to answer
(Remember, you are the community, so when someone asks a question that you are knowledgeable about, it’s your turn to answer) - Look out for answers that have been upvoted the most, and select the best answer based on merit
To get a gist of how it works, see this example question: To trade in MCX why do we only need SPAN margin, where as for Equity F&O we need SPAN & EXPOSURE margin?
Points
Beside quality content, the best part about Trading Q&A is the points system. When you post a good question or a good answer, the community will show their appreciation by up-voting your submissions. Each up-vote earns you points. These points depict your “reputation” in the community. The higher the number of points you have, the better your contribution to the community. The points can also earn you privileges in the community, such as gaining content moderation abilities, or becoming an “Expert”. You can read more about points here.
Zerodha’s role
As administrators of the platform, we consider it our responsibility is to keep it entirely neutral, clean, and free of spam. We will strive to make the platform a high quality repository of curated knowledge that is up-to-date, relevant, and continually growing, backed by a strong and dedicated community. One of the things we’ve done to ensure openness and to really give ownership to the community, is to license all user generated content in the public domain (cc by-sa 3.0 with attribution required), similar to what Wikipedia does.
In addition, though the community will be self curated, we as Zerodha will keep finding market experts to join and participate, and moderators to keep everything neat and tidy.
Stock tips – a big No
As you already know, we’ve never promoted, nor will we give stock tips and recommendations. Trading Q&A follows the same principle. The community will neither encourage, nor tolerate solicitation and publishing of stock tips and recommendations. For it to grow as quality repository of information, it is important to keep the questions and answers generated by the community as objective as possible.
Finally
We are very excited to see how the Trading Q&A community grows. Together, we can make it the best community and the highest quality store of trading and market knowledge in India.
As always, looking for your continued support.
Team Zerodha
Good Initiative

Is Reliance Power is good to Hold?
I have been trading from 2015 that is last 9 years. Still not gotten over the psychological element in trading.
I take good trades 75% of the time, but still on the losing side.
My biggest problem is I enter a good trade, not able to wait the course of the trade and trail my gains. I exit the trade within 1 or 2 minutes with some gains like 500 or 700 bucks in NIFTY and FINNIFTY options and immediately chase the same trade again and re-enter with a bigger premium and wait for 1 or 2 minutes, this time the trade pulls back and gives me a loss of 2000. Next trade i enter and like this I do 40 trades in a day and mostly end up on the losing side losing 10,000 to 15,000 on some days. This type of over trading approach eats a lot of my money on brokerage and other charges too apart from the trading loss.
What do i need to do to develop patience in a good trade & stay the course of the trade, let the profits run & keep trailing my trade on intraday basis. Why do i become so impulsive to exit trade early & very impulsive to re-enter, actually i am not trading at all. I am scalping & gambling 90% of the time.
Please suggest some corrective course of action so I can improve my trading.
Sir,
Sub :- Need a Clarity On TAX AUDIT.
Share Trading Is My Only Business.
I Do Only and Only Cash Buy / Sell.
And Sometimes INTRADAY.
( No Futures N Options )
My Turnover I Keep Below 10 Crore.
Till Now I have Booked Profit Only at Minimum 6 %.
Now I Intend To Book Profit at Less than 6%.
May be 3 To 4%.
Whatever Yearly Profit I will Make, I check Through ZERODHA Tax P/L Statement and will file my returns accordingly.
So Then…
Sir…
Is the TAX AUDIT Required in My Case… Just Because My Profit is BOOKED Below 6 %…???
( My Income is Above Taxable Limits )
Waiting For a Straightaway Fixed 6 % Profit in Shares Is Becoming bothersome,and Too long Waiting and Uncertainty.
Hence I wish to Book Profit at Lesser Percentage.
At the same time…want to avoid the Hassles of a TAX AUDIT.
Kindly Clarify…???
Do I Need To Go For an Audit… Just Because My Profit percentage is Less then 6%.
Thanks

In option we can trade multiple times in the same strike. It will affect our p&l or that strike will average each time after my 1st trade is over(In intraday)
Ex: 1st trade-If I buy 21000ce at 30rs ,then sell it 37rs
2nd trade-
After again few hours later same strike I buy at 5 rs it was expiry day so much decay then I sell it for 8rs
Is there any connection with 1st and 2nd or totally it will understand different Trade??
Anyone who know clearly please explain briefly and simplicity so 18 year boy understanding easily??
Suppose I have Rs. 30000 in my Zerodha account for trading. For swing trade, shares of how much amount I can purchase. Is it more than Rs. 30000?
Hi Dhananjay, there is no leverage provided for overnight positions, so you will be able to buy shares worth 30,000 only.
If i place an intra day buy limit order, it gets executed at 1 pm, at 1.30 pm i convert it to CNC ie i take delivery. Will i be charged Rs 20 for intra day transaction in addition to stt etc payable for delivery. Same question if i sell on intraday basis but later, before 3 pm i convert it to CNC as i already have shares in my demat account.
Hi if i buy shares on CNC ie delivery basis and later on the same day sell these on CNC basis, will i be charged short delivery auction penalty because I have sold shares before reaching demat account? Suppose the person from whom i have bought fails to deliver shares in time. Second question will zerodha charge Rs 20 in this case for intra day transaction? Assuming i don’t have those shares in my demat account. I am first buying and then selling. When I am selling after 3.15 pm it has to be CNC.
Hi Mahesh, buying and selling shares in CNC on the same day will not lead to the short delivery. This will be considered intraday trade. Also, the charges will be applicable as per intraday. Please check this article for more information.
Thanks Shubham
I have read on Varsity that in Short Condor strategy margin decreases by Buying one deep OTM Call option and selling one OTM Call option , Similarly in Put Option also.
But when I tried to execute it was failed because of margin. I had selected Intraday.
Please explain why more than 1 lakh margin money required although in Varsity it was written 40000.
Hi Sanyukta, the margin requirements can change based on changes in price and volatility. To place orders in the basket you need to have sufficient ‘required margin’. The final margin is the eventual margin that will be blocked after all the orders are executed. Explained here.
hi for intraday option selling trade can i use 100% non-cash component pledge margin
Hi Gokul, yes, you can. Only for overnight F&O positions, 50% of the margin needs to compulsorily come in cash and the remaining 50% in terms of collateral margin. More here.
I need a list of ETFs traded on zerodha kite, with their full form/name and code used in the watchlist. Is this available somewhere?
Hey Bharat, the list of tradeable Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) with the symbol and underlying can be found on the NSE website and BSE website.
Hi Nithin /Team,
From July 1st ,As usual I have transferred amount through coin using upi..but h I see my mutual funds orders not yet placed or processed.
and i See the link: https://support.zerodha.com/category/mutual-funds/coin-app/buying-and-selling-through-coin/articles/add-funds-coin-new
But however if i follow same process then I to have transfer amount for each Mutual Fund ,which is becoming very ridiculous and redundant so request you to please have work around on this like earlier and do needful.
Example:
I can able to pay individually but which is not good at all (To many redundant work). Lets say for example .
if i have 20 MF of SIP each of Rs 1000 then i have to do 20 transactions. Actually i would like to transfer Rs, 20,000 so automatically based on SIP amount will get deduct in this case Rs 1000 for each Mutual fund. Please find the attached screenshot for your reference (ticket number #20220703119380. and its really becoming difficulty for users and which is not user friendly
Hey Ajay, for now, you’ll have to make the payment individually for each SIP. However, we’ll soon have a single payment for all orders and mandates as well. Will keep you posted.
thank you . Single payment for all order is user friendly as Mandates works like Emi options… if i dont have enough amount in bank then some penalty will get deducts .. anyway waiting for solution/fix for current issue. thanks again.
Also ,if i want to run my SIP’s on 10th of every month and 20th of every month… which cannot able done in mandate option. so single payment for all order would be benefit the customer . please help us fast track and thanks for understanding.
I want to trade “options”.
Instead of holding cash, I want to pledge bonds & bees. As there is a requirement for keeping 50% cash for the overnight holding & “Liquid bees” are considered as quasi cash. My doubt is that…
If my Capital = ₹3,50,000/-.
Can I keep the pledging portfolio as
Government Bonds = ₹ 1,50,000
Liquid Bees = ₹ 1,00,000
Cash = ₹ 50,000
Do I get margin around ₹ 3,00,000 for Options trading ? Pls Help. I am new in Zerodha.
Hey Maddy, you can check the haircut percentage and collateral margin you’ll get from pledging each security here.
Hi nitin
I want to open trading account of my LLP firm and I have 5-6 employees it is possible to open 1 trading account with 5-6 client account for my employes from which they can trade for my firm
Hi I got a short margin penalty. I generally do option trading. But I can remember that end of the day I cleared all my positions. So my question is whether margin penalty can be levied even if during the day I have short margin.
Hey Sanika, there is now a peak margin penalty applicable if there is a margin shortfall during the day. Please check out this post for more details. For further assistance, please create a ticket at http://support.zerodha.com. We’ll have this checked and clarified for you.
What will be my account balance if I sell all my stock holdings,
square off all my open positions including futures and options ?
Is it same as “Account Value” displayed in console ?
Does kite have functionality of saving plotted charting studies (Support, Resistance, Trendlines, Chart Patterns, Wave Structure) for multiple (50-100) charts?
If I place a after market order at 7:00 AM today say…it gets sent to the exchange at 9:00 AM…9:00 AM is start of pre market …so will it be treated as Pre market order? Will treatment be same or different?
Hey Ayush, market and limit AMO orders in equity segment (NSE and BSE) are sent to the exchange at 9 AM. If your order is matched, it’ll execute in pre-open session itself. If it isn’t, it’ll be carried forward to normal market hours. You can learn more on pre-market session here.

In my account latest trading call or put option not showing ….why this happen
I have found zerodha as the best broker in the market. BUT, there is only one limitation i.e. OI limit on strike price and being an option trader, this is the biggest limitation for me. I want to know whether Zerodha is going to remove the OI limits on strike prices so that we can buy deep OTM options in times to come.
Hey, this limit exists only for naked buy positions due to an exchange limit on the total OI a broker can hold. Until there is a change in regulation, there is little we can do.
Hello

I bought 210 units of liquidbees and created pledge for margin. Afterwards I purchased 190 units of Liquidbees. When I tried to pledge the 190 units,, the thread opened has a column showing UNPLEDGE but PLEDGE FOR MARGIN option is not avialable. Is it I have to unpledge 210 units first and then pledge for margin all 400 units at one time ? . Iam unable to carry F&O trade because of this and not getting answer though I raised the issue in SUPPORT app. Iam not able to contact Zerodha over phone since IVRS of no use.
Can somebody help me out.

Why is RSI in kite (using TV view) and TradingView different. Isn’t kite using TV indicators in TV view.
If these could be different, which RSI is Zerodha using. TV uses Exponential RSI.
Could this be due to the fact that though both are exponential but the start dates are different. Leading to differences in RSI.
Nifty Option Chain query :
While looking to NSE Option Chain for 7th Jan21 Settlement – I found 15000 Strike period with sufficient OI even on 6th Jan21 and this quoted whole the day between Rs.1.05 – 80p even when the Nifty was about 100 points down. My query is when we all are over sure that Nifty will not touch 15000 by 7th Jan.21, the settlement day, then how and why OI and trading is going on and who are the operators i.e. writers and buyers, and what interest / profit they do have here. The 15000 Strike Price Option Chain as on 6th Jan21 (settlement 7th Jan21) is furnished below for view and review / comments : –

Hi – It looks like Zigzag indicator is based on Low of the day. Can we have option to get this based on closing price of the day?
Do I still have to use TPIN to sell stocks or kite PIN. There was a message saying there are some TPIN problems.
I have selected the following ETF to buy (hold / delivery position) from zerodha platform. The investment amount is 1,00,000/- (one lakh in one go). Take below as an example. Amounts taken to nearest round value for easy understanding.
niftybees @ rs. 100 @ 200 qty = 20,000/-
setfnif50 @ rs. 100 @ 200 qty = 20,000/-
setfnn50 @ rs. 250 @ 200 qty = 50,000/-
icicinifty @ rs. 100 @ 100 qty = 10,000/-
The biggest query is that VOLUME & VOLATILITY. I heard that apart from NIFTYBEES , other ETF are not- recommended by many analyst, youtube experts , as instantly 100 or 200 quantity buying/ selling couldn’t be possible in one go due to less interest / low demand / less traders on those. So it would not be possible to trade as short term and buy sell 100-200 quantities in one go. How far it is true / correct ?
(Note – I don’t want to treat ETFs as SIP or mutual fund as I have some different outlook on it , and I already have diversified SIP portfolios. This ETF investment I only want to take tension free gain. Once nifty become up , then take the profit by selling and buy on low again and go on , rather investing in stocks and watch , monitor )
So please advise , whether the above 4 ETF are ok to invest , or only at NIFTYBEES considering my above concept.
I was trading in zinc mini and each Rs 1 movement equal to Rs 1000 P/L.

How can I Trade in zinc mini??

Has zerodha increased brokerage charges for intraday…Please explain..
The maximum brokerage per order is still Rs. 20, however, the minimum has been changed from 0.01% to 0.03%. Explained here.
Please explain how brokerage charges are deducted. Is it calculated on a daily basis or weekly basis. Today I find approximately Rs 100 deducted and i took one trade today.
How can we auto trade in Nifty Futures, based on Nifty 50 Index?
Normally, my strategy consists of zones at different price levels.
So, is there any way so that I would automatically enter the trade in nifty futures by entering the trigger price of Nifty index?
Similarly exit the trade when nifty index reaches particular price?
To be simple, I want to know whether there is any chance to enter & exit the Nifty Futures by using the Nifty 50
THis would amount to algo trading, which is not allowed for retail.
Today there is a difference of Rs. 0.70 between the chart prices and the prices on the watch list…Please explain why so? Anyways there is always a difference of Rs. 0.30 minimum between these two prices.
Explained here.
in zerodha margin calculator site, in USDINR MAY 2020 its given lot size -1000, nrml margin – 2271 , mis margin-1135
In Margin calculator option there, If I enter Rs1000 as cash available, its showing number of lots that can be bought is zero.
But, if I enter Rs 4000 as cash available its showing number of lots that can be bought is 1.
Does that mean I need a minimum of Rs4000 cash available to buy 1135 shares in MIS.?
Cant I enter this USDINR MAY 2020 trade with cash lesser than Rs4000 through MIS?
The SPAN calculator only shows you NRML margin. A percentage of this is required for MIS trades. Check out that percentage here.
Please explain how brokerage charges are calculated for intraday and cnc trades. I have gone through the brokerage charges calculator but I find that charges are being deducted even on days when I have not taken any trade.
When brackets and cover orders start again?
Please include alert facility of trading view in chart
I tried to find NIFTY 23rd APR 8900 PE under the watchlist section but it isn’t showing. I can’t add it.
It happened earlier too when I wanted some put option but wasn’t able to find it in the search section.
In the Trading View chart, when I pop out the chart that gets open in a new window that is expected behavior but whatever indicators I have set up in a normal window that gets lost in the popout window.
If you could fix this that would be very helpful.
Hi,
I plotted 50 days EMA on daily chart and when compress (more data points) or expand the chart (less data points), why does EMA line changes in value.
Example for Apollo Types when I have my chart from Sept 2019 to Apr 2020, the EMA 50 is above any price point but when my chart is from Jan-2019 till current date then the EMA is below the price point for the same period Sep-2019 to Apr-2020.
Since this is Average so it should not change and remain fixed at all times . Is this a bug?
This is because the EMS is only calculated with the candles visible on the chart, this isn’t a bug, this is how any charting platform works.
I want to understand the meaning of these two terms and how to apply them in zerodha

Dear SIR/Mam
Just wanted to know, how is it that my Yes Bank shares -1380 inquantity that I had purchased on Tuesday March 24 2020 for Rs 49983 with Rs 36.22 as average cost on Wednesday March 25 showing Rs 40368 as total investment done by me with average price reducing to 29.25……….Please revert and do the needful…………thanks…….
Hey Faiz,
The average price we show is always the average of your total holdings. Your YESBANK holding average is calculated including the locked-in shares in your account.
hii… zerodha , why are you increasing the rates of call and trade , you are already taken a large amount of amc charge comparion to other brokers near 386 with GST and other brokers take only 150₹ and your team increase the unnecessary charges it’s is the moto only how to pull out the money from customer pocket . if i paid to u 50₹ and 386₹ for amc then it is so better i opened a new account our nearest house broker
I bought yes bank shares on Friday the 13th and still I don’t see them in my demat and thus not able to sell even 25%
May I know when will it be done ?
tomorrow margin will be same as on 17 th march or there will be an increase

Hey Jerin, the company is suspended from trading due to compliance reasons.
How to sell the share then?
Hi All,
I have seen today (9-Mar-20) that in MCX there is no chance of buying MIS/CO/BO, my simple query is does a pond,lake,sea,ocean etc etc meant only for big fish ? Do small fish like us don’t have any scope of surviving in such critical cases where we can able to earn based on our luck,study,analysis etc etc…each time when there is a huge volatality this stops working and won’t allow us to place the orders… seriously you guys are providing good stuff.but let small fish like us also survive by not blocking such orders during volatality time. Hope you can understand and support us
Even option also didn’t allowed to place
Hey Chaithanya, you could still trade on MCX with full margins. On volatile days, the risk associated with offering margins is significantly higher than normal for us, hence the block. For instance, if we allowed a customer to take an MIS position in Crude Oil on Monday, the client may end up losing a lot more money than what is available in the account and we would have to still pay that to the exchange from our pockets.

Hi,
Why there is a restriction of 20,000 share per order in Zerodha? Is there a way in Kite to place single order for than 20k shares especially for low price shares?
Hey Tulsi, this restriction is part of our risk-management policy. You will have to place multiple separate orders. We are working on making basket orders available on Kite where you can place multiple orders of 20k stocks in a single basket.
Thanks Matti. I have been placing multiple orders of 20k shares but loosing lot of time at important time and ended up loosing the golden opportunities because of this.
When is the basket orders option expected to be available?
Hey Tulsi, while we are currently working on the baskets feature, I wouldn’t be able to give you a timeline at this time.

How to know if my account is in debit balance in zerodha. I want to know this so as to avoid interest 0.05% per day fees.
1. The funds page in Kite has an Available Cash field which shows the balance in your account excluding the collateral component. In case this is in debit balance, you will be charged interest on the debit balance.
2. You can also refer to the daily margin statement you receive on every traded day. If the total funds value is less than 50% of the total margin requirement, you will be charged interest on the shortfall.
Hi Nitin,

Hi,
I have a question on the HDFC screenshots given for 20 depth
In the given example of HDFC Market Depth, total buyers 269,171 and total sellers 948103.
However, the 20 depth shows around 6000 buyers and 10,000 sellers. There is a huge difference compared to the total. It means the 20 depth shows only 2% of volume.
Where are the other bids and what could be the motivation for keeping the prices for those bids below/beyond the current prices?
Can there be any fraudulent interests for placing such bids at far prices? If yes, what could they be?
Why someone has a bid or ask at a given price is very subjective. The 20 depth, however, gives you an idea of what most likely to be traded. Explained in more detail here.
On 23 October 2019 I have purchased 20 shares of Yes bank for Rs 51.60 in CNC, and on 24 October 2019 again I purchased 220 shares of Yes bank for Rs 48.50 in CNC. Now it’s showing only 220 shares in my holdings with an average of 48.78. why it’s not showing the remaining 20 shares in the holding?
Can anyone please help me.

Hey there, just a small query. I was trying to find BANK NIFTY 3rd Oct 29900 PE & CE. But on search i only found BANK NIFTY OCT 29900 PE & CE expiring on 10th Oct, 2019. Why is that most of the call and put options of BANK NIFTY with specific expiry date could not be found and why is that customers/ traders are made to trade in a given option chain and not the one in which they wish too. kindly reply.
*** Correction: expiring on 10th Oct, 2019 be read as 19th Oct, 2019
HDFC bank split 4 days ago but but my stocks not get doubled, what is the reason?
The stocks were credited to your demat account on Saturday. Since Saturday was a holiday, you wouldn’t have seen them on Kite today. You’ll see them tomorrow, though.
I had 3 hdfc bank shares in my kite app in past. But after 1:2 split it still showing only 3 shares at half price however it should be 6 hdfc bank shares at half price. Why changes are not reflecting with 6 shares.
The split shares were credited to your demat account on Saturday. These will be visible on the platform from tomorrow.
I was trying to find NIFTY 26TH SEP 11200CE option in Zerodha Kite web for last 3 days but i was unable to find any call/put options for 26th September ( even 31st October and 28th November call/put options are also not showing in Zerodha Kite web ) and because of that i had to buy call options of 3rd October paying double price ( compared to 26th September call options ) on 20/9/2019 and because of that my profit was half. It was a once in decade chance and i did not make most out of it because of not finding 26th September option. I am a new trader. So please help me to find the missing call/put options
26th September being the monthly expiry, it’s the same contract as the monthly contract. Search for Nifty SEP 11200CE.

why Zerodha is not allowing to trade in banknifty june expiry 31000 CE (when spot price is near 30400) saying to choose the closer spot price? As closer strike price premium is too high required more capital. Dont understand the policy of zerodha. Please explain.
This is explained here. Trading members have OI restriction set by the exchange that forces us to do this.
Hi all,
Any one can help me in clearing ESOP doubt regarding taxation,
regarding ESOP of Federal Bank,
I m working in federal bank, m eligible for 4500 equity shares of different rates like 28/-,42,52,62/- etc for last different years,
I m in tax bracket of 5-10 lakhs, want to know the tax aspects of this transaction if I execute sell all shares next month, some body from bank says bank deducts TDS of 30.9% as perquisites tax on profits earned from this transaction and if I sell immediately with in an year short term capital gains of 15%**,and if m holding it more than one year there is no tax if the gain is below 1 lakhs..
I m not purchased it still.. plan to purchase(exercise the option) in next montg
when the option exercised,(exercised price- allotted price), and this difference amount is treated as salary and add to my total income and claim the refund from income tax if I m eligible in lowest slab..,
Is it like that? Or plz rectify if m wrong..
The difference between the strike price to market price on the day it got allotted is considered as income/salary. You have to pay as per tax slabs. From that price to when you sell, it will be considered as a capital gain.

Can I buy and sell stocks on the same day using CNC order type? Is there any risk involved? Will I be prone to any kind of penalty?
You can, indeed, use CNC for buying and selling on the same day. No CNC specific risk or penalty as such.
removing the MTM option from snapquote is wrong decision in PI. Its basic requirement for intraday. there is no breakdown of PROFIT OR LOSS if trade on multiple stocks IN PI. instead improving and adding new features, removed the existing features not a good idea. I hope its restore ASAP.
If I sell 100 shares bought in CNC on the same day. Will it affect my holding date of same shares (already have)? Is FIFO rule applicable?
Please clarify..
Can I send my POA after 1 month for account opening.

Can Zerodha team explain?

Nithin Kamathji,
What a wonderful platform created by Zerodha.
Can’t you solve single most important (and must be the easiest to solve) problem. i.e “View Saving”
(It takes all the efforts in the world to save simply a chart setting!)
Names can not be renamed, & worst is, sometimes all views gets deleted automatically (happened with me, feels very bad).
What’s wrong with all your technical team that didn’t solve this problem yet.
-Sorry but “saving settings” is the first and foremost thing you must think to solve now,
I just feel like leaving Zerodha for such a small reason. (but it’s not small it’s a huge problem, facing since beginning).
Please answer me what’s the problem and exactly when will it get solved ?
Hi,
I use VWAP ( Volume weighted average price) indicator with 1Minute time frame to analyze the market trend.
Issues:
1. There is VWAP indicator inZerodha Kite, but candles will repaint/skip data on chart… So i need to refresh chart frequently, then take decision to enter trade(place orders). Hence there is delay
2. So Please suggest me which PAID DATA FEED (For Amibroker) i should subscribe to over come this problem.
Note: I have VWAP indicator with amibroker
3. Do we need Level-3 or tick by Tick data to calculate VWAP ? OR Level-1/Level-2 data is sufficient? from Data provider
Thanks in advance
You’ll see “Avg. Price” in the market depth. That is essentially the VWAP that is streamed by the exchange. You can use this value. It’s real-time and independent of charts.

Dear Sir/madam , can i buy 5 lakh shares (MIS trade) of a liquid stock at Rs 100 through market order?
Yes, but 5 Lakhs shares will still be a significant quantity and your order will get executed beyond the 5 step market depth increasing your impact cost.
Its recommended you place a limit order with the maximum price at which you want to buy(can be higher than the LTP).
Faisal sir, So you are saying that only one lakh shares will be placed at a time through market order🤔
I did not say that. What I’m trying to say is there might not necessarily be enough liquidity in the 5 market depth that you see on Kite. It is best you look at the market depth and figure at what price your full 5 lakh quantity will get filled at. Read the bid and ask price section of this chapter in Varsity to understand this better.
Thnku faisal sir
Hi,
I am currently running an options strategy. Are there any API’S that will help in automating it where I can slice my orders, automatically choose the best bid and ask?Because there is a lot of slippage when I am hitting my orders on NEST.
Nishant, we do expose APIs to link your trading account. However, you will not be able to fully automate your trades due to restrictions from the exchange(You need to get your algorithm approved from the exchange if you want to automate).
Do check out the Kite Connect Documentation and Developer Forum if you have any further queries

Dear, Nitin Kamath
Your zerodha brokerage firm is largest brokerage firm in India it is good now but I want to give a suggestion you do something for the new agers students I think many students who came here and open a account and trade but these students are newly in this market and I saw many student who wants earning from this market for our tuitions fee clg fee etc. They have much burden on his soldiers like 18+ age students .
And after this age his pocket income is closes by his parents .My moto is only that please give some relaxation in the brokerage in commodity and equity like you give 70- 100 trades free in every month bcz these students are less risky game changers and he want to only achieve 0.10-0.15 paise trgt in commodity but brokerage is so high and he wait for 0.40 trgt and after he doesn’t achieve trgt and is getting a loss .
In end of only in please give some trades free of cost give only students who filled student profile in account opening time
Your one step in good side taking low brokerage for low brokerage
Thank you.
LTP Percentage for buy orders is not good..
Zerodha should remove that LTP percentage and needs to give freedom to customer to chose their own put or call option in bank nifty.
Otherwise it’s a black mark for zerodha.

Hey Mayank,
If you change your email id & phone no. on our records, we will get it changed in the exchange and depositories accordingly. The procedure to do so is explained here – https://support.zerodha.com/category/your-zerodha-account/login-credentials/q-login/articles/how-do-i-change-my-registered-mobile-number-and-email-id
Sir,i have lost my gmail account and couldn’t able to recover my GMAIL ID.please tell if I change my gmail id in zerodha account.Zerodha will charge 50 rupees.
Second question is-
How can I get email or update from Depository Participant(DP) account.if I change email id .
Yes, there will be a charge of Rs 50 per email change request. This is because the email ID has to the updated with the exchanges and the depository.
Yes, your email ID with the depository will also be updated.
Hey Mayank,
Yes, the charge for change in registered email or mobile no is Rs 50. This charge is because we also update the same in the Exchange and depository records.

Hi, It’s been a week that I have opened the zerodha account, but when I try to login to “Q back office login “, it displays a message “User not synced, wait for 24hours if you are new user”. Everyday I try to login but I get this message everyday and it’s been more than 5 days already. What do I do?
While using Stochastic RSI (or any other indicator for that matter), during trading, I just found that the data and trend shown, varies from other websites such as investor.com or chartink.com…please reply…data shown on kite are reliable ?

2) How can I cancel all the other pending orders by single click?

Need to understand how can we trade ETF, is it like stocks we trade in cash market???.(delivery & intraday)
What will be brokrage/charges for that.
Pls reply..
You can buy/sell ETFs just like stocks from the cash market.
While STT is lower for ETFs at 0.01%, all other charges are same as equities
One of the stupid and pathetic service providers, I have seen.
The helpline is not attentive. I had lock complain above 1 week ago and the ticket is not resolved yet. It’s related to the fund transfer and I am not able to use my amount. Even the support guys not responding on the created ticket after giving transfer details.
Shweta, I believe your issue concerning fund transfer was fixed on the same day.
Few banks(like yours) do not provide us the necessary details to credit the funds to your trading account, hence, we require you to update the details in the backoffice
if i sell ITM put or call and remains ITM till expiry then what will be stt rate and exchange transaction rate ?
You will STT when you sell(0.05% of the premium) and there is no STT charged on expiry as you are an option writer. ETT will apply as mentioned in the charges list: zerodha.com/charges

I holding 30 reliance share in cnc. today I sell these share these are seen in position and the quantity is -30 . Plz reply
Hi Shubhankar, this has been explained here. Nothing to worry about. This is normal behaviour.
worst expirence ever . whatever price i give stock comes to @ the market price . i have recorded the trade. no matter what price i put stock comes to me at market price .eq i quoted adaniports s@ 394.95 stock was immidiately purchased @ market price which was 396.25. i mean why was the order executed.it is happening since 2 days.i have recorded this trade..
This would only happen if there’s a better price available in the market than your quote. To place buy orders at higher prices/sell orders at lower prices, you’d need to use SL/SLM orders.
Hello Sir,
I’m a regular trader in Zerodha.
I’m doing lot of technical analysis to come up with a strategy of my own.
Please help me with the formula of how the time based renko chart is calculated in kite.
It is different from the conventional non time base renko chart calculation.
I tried a lot to understand, but my calculation is not matching with the kite tool.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Manjunath
Hi Manjunath, there is no concept of time when you talk about Renko charts.
Hello Sir,
In kite, Renko chart for different time frames looks different for the same brick size.
You can check for nifty in the kite platform, you will see the difference for different time frames.
The original form of Renko chart will not depend upon time, but here in ‘kite’ their is relation ship established with time as well.
Please help me understand the relationship & also the formula behind it.
Regards
Manjunath

Hi, I have to fill the return. I am a private employee and I do trading in both stocks and options. Help me to tell the section on short-term profit/loss section and options section in return form. Thank you.
Hi sir, I buy reliance share on Friday ( 27/7/2018) on CNC. Yesterday (31/7/2018) it shows t1 holding. Today’s (1/8/2018) not showing anything ( t1 or t2) . What’s happened? And these share are credit my demat ac. Or not? Plz reply
Hey Shubhankar, you should be able to see the stocks purchased in your holdings. Can you log out, log in and check?
Hi matti, I log out and then log in. I see stock in holding but there not showing (t1 or t2 ) . I don’t understand the stock in demat ac or not? I fear that if I sell the share than it go auction. Plz explain
Please clarify your Call and Trade charges. I think there is no system at all. As far as know you declared that Rs.20 extra for the same. But have debited haphazardly for call and trade charges.
For example.. today there was 600 qty PCJewllers shorted in just a Single trade which undergoes call and trade. But zerodha charges Rs 354 for the same.
Hey Bidhan, best get in touch with our support desk on 080-40402020 for account specific details. Alternatively, you can raise a ticket on the Support Portal.

Thanks Matti!
simply you means that one should buy stock before ex date and hold it utpto the ex date? what if i sell before ex date which i purchased one month earlier?
Apart from this, the respond could have contain two or three scenerios which could happen regarding dividend’s ex date purchasing or selling the stocks.
Hi Nitin,
We appreciate your efforts making trading seamless for normal/small trader.
since it seems that you are going to sunset your support by email and starting some kind of automated/AI processes to answer queries on tickets. It is well deserved step but i guess you need to have some physical person for support that can be straighforword to the user’s questions. Your AI doesn’t look like that much smarter yet. so kindly facilitate us needed support.
yesterday i created ticket #201807033994412 and i am not okay with your automated reply.
here is my query:
i bought shares on 2nd july
companies ed-date was 3rd july and record date is 5th july. payment date is 1st august.
if i sell shares on 4th july will i get dividend(ignore short delivery case)? or else what will happen if i sell on 5th july?
please guide ASAP
Hey Yash, you’ll receive the dividend even after selling if you held the stock on the ex-date. In this case, since you’ve bought before ex-date, you’ll receive the dividend.
Also, regarding the support, whenever you create a ticket, it is always assigned to a real person. 🙂 The idea is that most queries are generic and are answered on the portal. If you still have questions, you can raise a ticket and an agent will answer. Now that you know the answer, we’d appreciate it if you could respond to your ticket with feedback as to how it could have been answered better. 🙂
Hey matti,
Please have a look into assigned ticket #201807033994412. We search for answers on portal first if found unsatisfactory then we will create ticket or query. And as you say that ticket is assigned to a pysical person then are they responding without reviewing the question and respond with what category fits the question’s headlines like a google search.
Also we can find answers on open forum but that are not trustworthy at all.
“The more active and satisfactory your tech support team the better convenient your client will feel and being loyal to you” this is the main thing we focus in IT industries and results are well known for everyone.
If you are looking for good tech support then hire me and i’ll handle for all best assistance and can handle team as well. I am having suffice experience.
Thanks

Hi Sir,
Can we put target price in case of Cover Order for selling any purchased share? As we have to put stop loss price in CO.
If you’re using CO, you’ll have to exit the position once the target price is hit. If you want to enter the target while entering the position, you’ll need to use BO.
Hi Team,
I had invested in the fund: HDFC Balanced Fund in Coin Platform in SIP. But it has been recently merged with HDFC Hybrid Equity Fund, and so for this month’s EMI it’s showing status – Purchase not allowed for this fund/ AMC stopped subscription.
Please suggest a way out such that I can continue to remain invested in the merged fund. Any other profitable suggestions are also welcome.
Thanks
Hey Indranil, you’ll need to simply delete the SIP you have for the balanced fund and create a fresh SIP for HDFC Hybrid Equity Fund.

Hi Matti,
I have a query on volume indicators.
Is there is an indicator in kite web/mobile app that shows both selling and buying volumes for a session?
Regards,
Volume, by definition, would require a trade to happen, which means that both a buy and a sell needs to be filled. So, there’s no concept of separate buy volume or sell volume. You can see the total bids/asks in the market depth.
Hi team
Is there a way to see transaction summary of a specific stock purchased in different quantities on different days?
You can check the trade book for any period and filter for that particular stock.
Can I customize parameters of any indicators in Charts in Zerodha Pi software. Although is very basic feature and available in Kite but I dont find any way to do this in Pi. Please help.
Hmmm… Will have this checked.
Hi,
Just read that Zerodha charges brokerage on “Executed Order”, but then would it also charge brokerage on “Cancelled/Rejected order”? Please let us know
No Anil, only completed orders are charged.

Hi, would like to know in pulse how do you get to know what is trending?
Hey Kratika, on top of the Pulse page, you’ll see the trending keywords.
ZERODHA team, please add BO to mcx also. That will be welcome feature. I have to pay more brokerage to other broker only for using this feature
Working on it, Akshay.
I understant. But genuine zerodha customers like us suffer from this. I have 5 accounts of my family members with zerodha. Just opened new account in my father’s name and wanted to dematerialize his old share certificates. There current value is low and dematerializing this at such high charges will not be worth their value. Kindly revise the charges to bit reasonable value.
Thank you.
Why did you guys changed your ‘Dematerialization charges’?
Earlier you use to charge 10 rs. per certificate subject to minimum of 25 rs. per ISIN. Now you have changed it to 150 rs. per certificate. Why this huge change? It doesn’t match with your philosophy of minimal charges for small investors.
Hey Vinay, the decision was taken keeping many factors in mind. One of them being that our charges were so low that individuals trading with other entities also started sending us requests.

your stock broker zerodha reported fund balance– and securities balance 0 as on end feb 18. note that balances do not cover your bank and dp balance… do i need to keep certain minimum balance at zerodha….y i got retention statement
Hi Shishir, the exchanges send this SMS/email just so you know what the broker is reporting to the exchange. The idea is to make sure the reporting done by the broker is accountable.

Heyy Nitin Sir,
Why leverage for MIS is different for every stock ??
I mean if even in worst case loss would be recovered from client allocated cash. There are situations when a good profitable stock is not available or available on low leverage.
Is it possible to provide flat leverage on every stock ???
Deepak, the leverage afforded to any stock is determined by the RMS team based on various parameters, like liquidity, volatility, etc.,. Also, whenever leverage is afforded for a stock, there is a chance that the loss the client runs may be more than what he has in his account. The broker always runs this risk while giving leverage, and so does thorough math before affording any leverage.
For e.g., let’s assume stock X costs Rs. 100 and is afforded 14 x leverage. So, with 100 rupees in your account, you can purchase stocks worth 1400 rupees. Let us also assume that the circuit limit for this stock is 20%. So, if the stock suddenly falls 20%, the loss here is Rs. 20 * 14 = Rs. 280 (1.8 times more than the money in your account). Now, this would lead to a debit on your account. So, in order to make sure a scenario like this doesn’t arise, the leverage multipliers are different for each stock.
Can anyone please bother to take into my query. I filed the ticket on 13th and still there is no response. Neither on this forum I am getting any response.
I am a user of kite as well as coin. Recently purchased the mutual funds worth Rs. 40000 via coin, in 4 MF, and planned to make the similar purchases every month. But I am facing some issues due to which I am very much disappointed and really worried about the security of my investment.
1. I think Zerodha, as part of my purchase, sent my KYC details to CkycIndia. CKycIndia sent an email to for confirmation of my kyc containing my details. To my surprise, the kyc details that you have sent to them was not correct. The details are mine but the *photograph* was not. You ask for all details, including photo, pan card aadhar number and etc then how can you make such a big mistake to attach the photograph of some other person. When contacted CKYC then mentioned that only zerodha can file the kyc again and they cannot do anything from their side.
I filed the ticket on 13th Dec 17 but there is no response yet.
2. Though coin web site mentions that you have allocated the MF but I did not received any mail from AMC on confirmation. Am I not suppose to expect confirmation emails from fund houses? Is there any other way, apart from coin, to know that I am really invested in said mutual funds?
Please resolve my issues soon.
Thanks.
Hi Nithin,
To be honest, i got surprised. I have never requested to change my address but i got mail from cdsl that address has been changed i.e also some madhya pradesh address and basically i am from karnataka only. how come address changed to madya pradesh. ticket No : 372366.
address changed to below one.

So i need one information how can i check all my investments are done in AMC mutual funds and as well about purchased shares. as i am worried. please do needful
Thank you ,

Hello Team,
I have some on-going Direct MF SIPs on the Zerodha Coin Platform. As far as I know these are being invested in the AMCs as lumpsum investments by Zerodha. So, just wanted to know what happens if these AMCs stop lump sum investments in MFs after their AUM cross a particular threshold, as quite a few of them are doing at the moment. What would be the status of my currently invested MFs and what steps would Zerodha take to ensure continuity of the SIPs?
How to know which shares are blocked for intraday trading … As on some shares I’m unable to convert them from delivery to intraday … And on rest it is possible … How to find that list …
Hi Nithin,
ClientId : YV5670
I have sent hardcopy of POA and Nominee Forms to zerodha with given address from zerodha support on 05/12/2017. And its still its not yet updated . However i have sent speed post acknowledgment as well.
I see it has been reached zerodha office in jp nagar bangalore. but still how much time its required i don’t know.
i am keep on doing followup with support but still i am not getting any response from them regarding this issue.
please do let me know.
Thanks,
Basavaraj
adding few more points
track id : EK657218077IN it shows that it has been delivered on 07/12/2017. Please do needful.
07/12/2017 15:30:00 J P Nagar S.O Item delivered [To: ZERODHA ]
Sorry for the delay. It normally takes up to 3-4 working days to have this updated.
Its More than 5 days . please do let me know. i am not getting proper response from you support team as well.
and in support ticket they said after receiving document it takes 24-48 hours but its more than 7 days also. please do needful
Hey Basu, this was done a couple of days ago and you should have received an email confirming the same.
I am a little surprised with this brokerage firm
Had requested to open an FnO account ( already an account holder) and it takes you more than 48 hours where you promise 24 hours?
and your support desk are just giving false promises over and over again
I participated in Infosys buyback throughQ portal of Zerodha and received this message—-
“Buy Back
Order acceptance for buybacks of Wipro & Infy will close on 11th & 12th respectively. Orders will be placed on the Exchange platform on these dates. Please make sure to have not sold the stock until then to be eligible for the buybacks.
Your buy back order of ….. is accepted for Infosys
Once the buy back orders are placed, they can’t be modified.”
Is this sufficient to participate in buyback offer? or do I still need to send the duly filled-in scanned tender form through email?
Sir any update on Crux. So much time passed………
Sir
1.Not able to link my aadhar details. as OTP generated sent on old number which i am not using. Any other option. In Motilal oswal OTP not required.It validated only after filling some details like Father/Spouce name , DOB , Aadhar no. etc. Kindly do the needful.
The right way to do this as per the regulations is to do the entire OTP verification.I suggest you get your mobile number updated on your Aadhaar. You can now do it in most banks as well and doesn’t take much time. I personally visited a bank and got my number on Aadhaar updated recently. The formalities took me 10 minutes.
Thanks Sir…
Hi,
Once opening DEMAT and trading account, can I do first time login on Kite Android App?
Hi
one suggestion please from my side. It is good if zerodha kite provide an extra feature to add our holding stocks to different buckets manually for better multiple portfolio management.
This is on our list of things to do Ajay.
Hi…………When we place a request for sell or buy order in f &o , why don’t we have the option of stop loss , target, trailing stop loss,as we have it in bracket orders. When can we expect it to be added?
Can I get an answer for this?
BO in stock options is not allowed as a risk management measure Sharmila. This is because the stoploss order in BO is an SLM order and this could lead to a rather large impact cost in illiquid stock option contracts.
How do I see the total p&l for a given day ? I tried on the site q.zerodha.com/ under Reports tab, P&L for Absolute P&L, however I was unable to see my sale of ARVIND for today ??
Also I purchased 240 Stocks at 421.39 and sold them at 424.00 but I see a buy qty of 480 ??
Hello Nithin,
I have been using Kite for couple of years now and often trade into F&O. I have found an issue and this is the 4th time, I have the same precise issue. When squaring off a future position, if I update an already placed order multiple times (the order price is no where close to the current market price), system keeps the copy of stale order and executes it without showing that order on the screen. Can you please raise this concern to your quality assurance team and look into the problem. As I said this is the 4th time I ended up in a short position without I explicitly placing it, the sort position got created because of updating an existing square off position.
in this month 2 days (including today) i placed BO .It got executed .but one day s/l and target order got auto cancelled and today there was no s/l or target order got placed.what is happening ? i have never got customer care executive to talk to in this matter.please look into the matter.Also suggest how to exit from the trade in such situation
Hey Milan, please write to support[at]zerodha.com with this. This is an inherent risk of BO orders that we’re trying to fix currently. But don’t worry, this shouldn’t happen again.
Hi Nithin,
Hope your doing well 🙂 , i have referred my wife on (20/10/2017) and today for my brother to open Zerodha account.
But till now they didn’t get any calls from zerodha. I don’t know why its taking lot of time. please do needful.
Thank you ,
Ajay Patil
Ajay, will have someone from our team get in touch with them on Monday.
Hi Team,
Hope so. 🙂 lets see thank you
Hi Team/Nithin,
Thanks for calling both of guys to whom i have referred. One kind request is If some one don’t know the english and if he requested to speak in kannada ,please do speak kannada else you can assign to some other operator who knows kannada. I hope you didn’t called back to the person ,who requested you to speak in Kannada.
Thanks,
Ajay Patil

Hi Matti/Nithin,
Thanks both of guys had completed the online forms but till now they didn’t get call /mail about kite login credentials. if anything mismatch in the documents ,i request you to call them and get it done soon please.

Thanks,
ajay patil
Forgot add point is that ,they have paid amount as well. Please do needful
Ajya, can you write to [email protected] with the details please.
Hello, I am a frequent user of Kite application. It would be beneficial for me if someone kindly inform me how to participate in Infosys buyback offer through trading application(s) of Zerodha? What are the pre-requisites ?
Debarshi, check this link.

Surya, can you write to [email protected].
The contract notes issued combine the equity purchase and F&O trade in single note which should be separate.Also the note lists it tradewise and the total no. of shares/total consideration is not mentioned. Can you have it improved.

Dear Zerodha Team,
I having an issue while selling, my order getting rejected and reflecting error message “check circuit limit including square off order exceed for entity account-ZQ—-across exchange across segment across product”.
I bough at the price of 14.29 and want to sell all the shares at 15 (at limit price) but every time it says the same error, could you please help how to sell ?.
Ravi, This error occurs if an order is not placed within the exchange stipulated circuit limits.Check this post for more details.
hello, from where i can get percentage of transaction charges, like how much is STT per scrip

In symbol when i write scrip name , still i get transaction charges of whole month rather just that scrip
Hello i have previous holdings of 245 TFCI shares @ Rs 150.78 and i bought another 210 shares of TFCI @ Rs 142.05 this friday for the purpose of doing BTST on upcoming monday. However, the average price of my share is now Rs. 146.75. Suppose i sell those additional 210 shares of TFCI on monday @ Rs 146 with margin of Rs 3.95 each share (Rs 146-Rs142.05), then what will be correct margin/profit? Will i get the profit/loss on average price or on the basis of Rs 142.05 ?
Saurav, the average price is calculated on the basis of First In First out. So the shares you bought fist will be sold first, you can calculate your avg based on this.

hello,
i am a trader and holding a zerodha demat account. Tomorrow is holiday. so can i buy/sell shares on intraday tomorrow..?
Hey!
I’m a trader and do only delivery based trades do I have to show this gains from trading as non speculative business income if I have no other source of income or I can show it as STCG
Thanks
Hi Zerodha,
I have one question for Zerodha application on holdings. I purchase XXXX shares two time in slot of 10 each with different price.
First slot I purchase at 49/- approx. and Second Slot at 65/- approx.
After second slot purchase Avg price of each share become 57/-. approx.
After some time I sold out 10 shares for 74/-.
Now in zerodha application Avg. price it showing 65/- approx for remaining 10 shares.
Could you please help me to understand why Avg. price increases from 57/- to 65/- ? Is there is any specific reason behind it?
As per support team, We have to sell all shares at a time so that system will be updated correctly.
Thanks,
Subhash
Subhash, the avg price is calculated based on FIFO (First in first out) method. So the stocks brought first will be sold first.
can we deposit money on non trading days? if we do so will it get reflected to or account
Yes, it will.
Hello Zerodha,
I have a query regarding Talbros Engineering ex bonus date, which is set as today and the record date is set as 14-10-2017. If I purchase the Talbros engineering stock today, am I eligible for bonus stock . Please confirm
Thanks,
Sreekumar Hariharan
Sreekumar, the rule is you need to have the shares in your demat as of the record date.
Heya Nithin
Do zerodha charge for leverage provided for intraday?
Hey Nitin, no charges.
Hi………….I have a bank nifty call option, if I want to sell it, can I place stop loss and target in a single order? Can we place bracket order for bank nifty?
Our RMS team has disabled BO for Bank Nifty weekly options. I’m afraid you’ll have to place two separate orders. Margins will blocked for one of the orders though.
please provide volume info for banknifty index on kite platform, why is it showing 0 ?
Hey Vicky. The Bank Nifty index isn’t traded. The future/option contracts based on the index are. As such, the volume for the index is always 0.
But I only do intraday in shares so I can’t file ITR 4 sugam?
ITR4 sugam is now called ITR4. No you can’t use that as intraday trading is considered speculative business income and can’t be declared on ITR4. Do read through: https://zerodha.com/varsity/module/markets-and-taxation/
Hi Nithin,
I am not able to access quant feature in Q- Backoffice
We have removed it for now. Should be available soon.
Hey Nithin
I am a intraday trader can I file ITR 4 sugam and show my profit at 8% though actual profit is more?
You can if you have only F&O. Otherwise ITR3. Check this: https://zerodha.com/varsity/module/markets-and-taxation/
No I don’t trade in FNO I have only shares so I can’t file itr4 sugam?
Thanks for your reply Nithin 🙂
I have one more doubt, i want to manage my account, my dads and my brother at in intra day, is that possible i can manage at same time buying or selling in all 3 accounts. i can keep all passwords same for 3 accounts in zerodha, as managing individually its becoming difficulty for me in intra day separately. is there any solution please do let me know thank you
thanks,
Ajay Patil
Hey Ajay, exchanges don’t allow this.
Hi Nithin/Team,
Could you please help in understanding below thing
Example : Assume ,i bought 10 share in zerodha ,after some time(within 1 year) if sold it and i invest same amount into other shares in zerodha only.
Note :i don’t even with draw money from zerodha.
in this case still we need to pay short term tax for IT. please do let me know . thanks in advance
Thanks,
Ajay Patil
Yes you need to pay the tax (STCG) on the realized profit. Check this for more: https://zerodha.com/varsity/module/markets-and-taxation/
Was not able to sell ICICI Lombard shares today on kite as I was not able to add through market watch. Was also not able to exit the position through holdings tab. Please look into this matter as this is the issue with every new listings.
We had shared this link in the morning.
Hi,
I insist to my friends, relatives to open account in zerodha. But in the past few days i had bad experience with Zerodha service in account opening. Whatever issue with the account opening kindly communicate with the respective people on immediate basis so they can try resolving. But i found no communication from your end.
For example – Kavi Choudhari completed all formalities but till date no update. Kavi choudhari called you regarding account opening but no response from you side. These guys already paid fees, account opening documentation.
I do not know what is the problem. All leads provided by me is genuine. They are ready to open account with zerodha. they paid your fees, documentation etc but….. They are so much busy in their work so they do not have much time. They are ready to help you in documentation but need your support. Kindly communicate the issue with them through email, phone. Update them on regular basis if there is any issue in account opening form.
@Nithin, My client id is ZV1748. I gave around 4 to 5 genuine leads in last month who already paid account opening fees also. But till date account is not open. Even they do not know the status of account. Today i received call from my friend and they asked me Zerodha account status. They said” Very bad service from Zerodha in account opening”. I really feel very bad. Even i do not have much time to write such long email but…… anyway..
I am expecting little bit more service from Zerodha. I hope so… else zerodha will lose good leads
Looking into this.
Hi,
I am using zerodha screener and wondering what would be the lowest market cap company we should filter? 50 crores? and maybe some insights on the P/E would help to some extent too.
Why are my tickets not being addressed properly?
Hi Nithin,
I am facing one issue in KITE/Q-backoffice tool.
I have transferred my previous Demat account to Zerodha with all my holdings transferred.
I have edited Buying Price for my Holdings because Buying price was not available as holdings got transferred. I have sold my SPICEJET Holding through Kite and it is available in my P/L Report in Q tool.
Now I have bought SPICEJET but it is not showing the correct Buying Price. What I should do to get correct Buy price show in Q and Kite both.
Can you email [email protected]
Even though m facing the same issue. I’m not getting proper response from support too. Please advise.
I have just started trading with zerodha after switching from another broker.I find two things really lacking:-
1.In the q back office in ledger there is no way to check the internals of the daily F&O obligation amount i.e the mark to market scriptwise, unless i login to archaic bo in internet explorer which most of the time gives errors.Cant you provide an option in the ledger itself.Even logging to email will be time consuming.
2.Secondly,open positions do not get updated till the next day..is there any option to view with the closing rate atleast till late evening?
Hopefully these basic but valuable things provided by other brokers can be resolved without me shifting back.
1. The contract note emailed to your everyday is a contract note cum bill and explains to you the basis of the amounts posted on your ledger. The MTM & the charges are present on this contract note.
2. You can check open positions on backoffice on Q here.
In the emailed contract notes for futures position the MTM is shown on daily basis but when the position is squared off on that day there is no calculation and it has to be done manually by comparing the turnovers from the previous day.Also the emails do not come on the same day as the time as the “fno obligation amount “is shown in ledger and thus no confirmation and calculation can be done from our side till very late.
Secondly,open positions in Q do not get reflected till the next day also. So at the end of the
trading day or late night also if you click in open positions for the current date it will show as “No open positions” even though there are positions.
Can you email me at [email protected] your contract note so I could check.
query resolved thank you
one mr.pavan spoke to me and he was very helpful and knowledgeable
thanks zerodha keep up the great work
Greetings Sir.
I have one question. How to shift/transfer the shares from one broker to another broker ONLINE ?
Check this.
Thank you so much. But my query is, can’t we do it via ONLINE sitting at one place?
And I will get back to your person very soon, to open an account at Zerodha.
Yes, you can.
Hey Hi,
Just wanted to inquire if we can use our zerodha account to trade in other countries Markets? Like HSI, DJI, etc.
thanks!
Not possible currently Bhimashish.
I tried to buy Banknifty24aug1723900PE. But the order got rejected with below message.
Status
REJECTED
Status message
RMS:Rule: Option Strike price based on Ltp percentage for entity account-ZB9950 across exchange across segment across product
Please let me know, why order rejected. and In which other way I can purchase it ?
There is a restriction on Banknifty options strikes range due to a violation of broker level open interest of 15%. The range for today, Thursday, 24 Aug 2017 is 1.3%. You can trade option strikes plus or minus 1.3% from this ltp, which is +/- 300 points. If you’re placing a trade for a strike outside this range, your order is bound to get rejected.
Refer to this NSE link for more explanation on open interest violations.
Dear Nithin/team,
Would you please let me know if there is an option to sell stocks of a company (e.g. Infosys buyback offer coming up) in a buyback offer online via the Kite portal?
If not, what’s the procedure to follow in Zerodha?
Your reply would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Pratik

HELLO NITIN SIR,
First of all thank you for your replies. being a customer of your great services I have one suggestion to make it more convenient for all of us. can you add price alert feature in kite. as a trader we have to always look on Pc or laptop for price changing or lets say pivot point touch but if you add the feature where we can set the alert at a particular price or lets say R1,R2,R3 – S1,S2,S3. that would be really good for us. I guess Investing.com have this feature (but kite is just awsome). it will be very helpful for us.
Thank you.
Yep, we have a plan.
Hello Nitin,
I have been using Zerodha for past couple of years and have used other platforms for more than 8 years. I have been noticing for sometime that whenever I put market orders (100 out of 100 times), it always execute at couple of points less (for buy order) and more (for sell orders). So for example if the market rate as flashing on the screen is lets say Rs 200 my sell order would execute at around 198.X or 197.X but certainly never closer to 200 or at 200 but if I put the limit order it will execute at that price.
Quite surprised how come you always gets executed on the lower side of market even when liquidity spread is not high and when even after execution the market price as shown on screen is higher than your execution price. Am I missing something ?
hmm.. can’t be happening Swati unless the bid/ask has that Rs 1 or Rs 2 spread.
Unfortunately it is happening, even I initially questioned myself several times that it can’t be true but now fairly convinced. I have significant experience into Technology and have run Electronic Trading Capital Markets for large global bank. Today only while trading on BEML, FUT the price was at 1800 when I executed the order at market price, the order got executed at 1798.2. I guess BEML is fairly liquid. Could there be a possibility that the internal system while putting the order into exchange is tinkering with the price to prioritize the execution ? Or there is some latency on the price which shows up vs the actual price. If possible I would strongly encourage your testing team or you yourself to try out at your end.
As brokers we only provide clients a platform to place orders. Order matching and subsequent execution based on available bid/ask prices happens at the Exchange end. The OMS that we use for sending out orders is from Thomson Reuters who is probably the biggest in the context of the Indian markets. There can’t be latency in the prices that show up, cos if it did, it would have affected a larger set of our clients. Slippage is the only explanation that I can think of, however since you always have the option of placing a limit order, it’s best to place one.
Hi
Kite is a best trading platform having only trading related tool that good.
if one tool added in kite that help to investor as well as trader that is PRICE ALERT
Hello sir. I appreciate for your services which you are providing. I just have one suggestion that can you increase the intraday margin atleast on nifty 50 stocks. I have account in zerodha but for trading purpose I am still using other broker. I hope that many traders will appreciate your next move regarding this.
Thank you
Onkar, as a broker offering higher leverage increases the risk in the business. Also as a trader, I can tell you with all the data I have that people who take lesser leverage are the most profitable.

or is there any separate email . Please provide.
Dear Sir,
I’m having share trading a/c with Sharekhan but now I want to open new account with zerodha & close my trading account with sharekhan. so what is the procedure? Do I need to open new Demat account with you ? How can I link my old bank a/c ?
Thank you.
Yeah, you need to open new demat and trading account with us and map your bank account when opening. Go through the process here: https://zerodha.com/open-account. Once account with us is opened, you can transfer the shares in sharekhan to here and close that account.
I have created new account on Zerodha and for testing purpose bought SBIN in MIS – intraday. I saw that for SBIM the margin is 14 times. I bought only 1 stock qty so I should have got 14 stock qty but as I checked the position it says only 1 qty was bought. Also I sold the stock and Rs 0.7 profit, so I should have earned Rs 0.7 * 14 = Rs 9.8 but that did not happen. Am I missing something?

Ah it doesn’t work like that. If SBI is at Rs 300, if you have Rs 1000 in your account, you will get to buy for Rs 14000 of SBI. You will get 0.7*14 only if you had bought 14 shares and not 1 share.

Hi..
If I have to trade on behalf of my clients on zerodha. How do I trade?
Is there a way where in I can put in trades for each account through one command or something similar?
Is there a video explaining that?
Regards,
Rhishikesh Agashe
That, I’m afraid isn’t permitted.
Dear sir, zerodha is very good for service that you are offering but still I am using Angel broking for just one reason as I am intraday trader and they are offering 40 times margin for Thier intraday product which makes good difference. I wish If you really start this product on your platform that would be really good thing for traders like us to join zerodha service.
Thank you.
Hi
i am a customer of zerodha, i feel that very important tools are missing in zerodha which are there in sharekhan
1. tools for marking demand/supply zone, like entry stoploss and target
2. retracement tool , which is also used for marking the zones….. simple marking without colors where two lines will be drawn one as proximal and other as distal line
any plans to have this tools in near term
Regards
can you email in detail to [email protected], maybe send screenshots of tools you are referring to.
Dear Sir,
1. I brought 200 SBI Shares in Feb and sold out two day back with total turnover of 1,14,800 and total profit is 3100…my question is STCG 15% will calculate only on my gain what i made 3100 or either total turn over 1,14,800… yearly maximum what amount that i can trade to avoid income tax
Regards
D.Sunil Kumar
15% total on my gain what i have done all this year
Dear Nithin Sir,
This Sunil, and i am trading regularly in NSE with delivery based trading. My questing is..
1. STCG is 15%, recently i sell my SBI Shares in NSE but they didnt cut any of STCG 15% from that…. can you clarify this to me.. and i am a short term trader and do i need income tax return to file
You are required to pay 15% along with your income tax at end of year. Check this: http://zerodha.com/varsity/module/markets-and-taxation/
Dear Nitin,
Very happy trading using PI software. Recently you have upgraded like line chart which is very useful. But request a small upgrade to this. Please make it with colour like red and green, similar to the one like candle chart. which is more helpful in understanding the trend.
Regards
Raajesh
Suppose in a hypothetical situation, I refer a person to zerodha and he wins all 60 day challenges getting all his brokerage back. Will I get any referral commission on brokerage in this particular case?
Nithin sir ,

Thanks
Can you email [email protected], we will explain in detail.
Dear sir,
I have a basic question about future stock trading. Can I buy ex: Ashok leyland future (lot size 7000) at 3:25 pm today evening and sell tomorrow morning @9:15 am. Can you guide me.
Yep absolutely.
Sorry
Sell price is 10.75 and Buy is 6.75 and Qty = 40
Contract Note says: Pay in/Pay out obligation is = (270) + Charges = (293)
How is it possible? Why should I Incur loss in this trade?
I am guessing this is an exercised bank nifty option trade. STT is quite high if you let in the money options expire (23 points just as STT on bank nifty). Check this post. If it is not, send an email to [email protected] with ur client ID.
Nitin Sir,
I have entered a sell position on bank nifty weekly option (OTM) yesterday at 3.25PM (Not MIS Order) and carried forwarded. The next day it was executed.
Do I have to bear STT penalty?
Why i cannot add chart of nifty in kite platform only nifty futures are avlb.
Plz clarify
Nifty is also available. Check this.
Thanks for the prompt reply.
Hi Nithin,
I am very happy with Zerodha service except that I am missing a very basic functionality.
SMSes.
SMS for delivery traded positions. All brokers (well, most) send sms either realtime when a trade goes through or send it at end of day for all the trades that were triggered on exchange.
Why does Zerodha not have such a basic feature. It is very much required.
– Somenath
Hi Somenath,
The Exchanges today send SMS’s at the end of the day which is why we’ve stopped sending SMS’s. If you’ve placed an order through our dealing desk, you’ll receive an SMS upon the execution of the trade.
Additionally, you always have the option of tracking your trades on the Kite mobile app.
I had placed a stop loss at 40560 on a lot of silver micro. The price didn’t reach that level, yet the stop loss got executed, and whats worse is that the trade got executed at 40648, ripped me off. What is the meaning of this?
Please clarify.
I have answered it here, check it out. A big market order can easily move the market quite a bit and back down.
Gst will change stamduty in tamilnadu…tamilnadu is expensive in stampduty
GST won’t change stampduty.
Hi Nithin,
I am badly waiting for Franklin India Tax shield MF to add in Zerodha almost from one and half months. could you please do let me know when it will be available in coin.
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks,
Ajay Patil
We are following up with the AMC’s to list them. It will hopefully happen soon.
Hi
In our system, can u place stoploss and target validity so we can book less loss
Because in zerodha I have seen that stoploss validity is only for one day.
If I take position trade and know I will active the target in next 5 day so I can keep may target with validity that they of provision, we having or not.
Regards
Ashish Ligam
Currently not possible
I registered for both NSE and Commodities when I opened the account but now when I put my order in MCX the orders are rejected with the msg “Client not registered” . Don’t you check with MCX that they have registered the client. I have been waiting since Monday morning when I raised the issue but stil I have not been able to place order in MCX. Ticket No . 476046.
There is one more issue , when I try to save views in Kite it saves only one view the saved views disappear once I restart Kite. Pls look in this issue as I want to save different views for different commodities.
Bro same thing happened to me. They are unable to solve the issue. It’s been more than a week. Still no reply from them. Now a days zerodha service is waste.
Were they able to solve your problem? I am facing the same issue.
Hey Radhika, please create a ticket on our Support Portal. Our team will have this checked and assist.
Hi Nithin,
It really pains to write this.
I placed an intraday MIS order at 3:16:37 to enter a long position. Since all orders squared off by Zerodha at 3:20 are charged with call and trade brokerage, I placed an order to exit that position, which got rejected at 3:19:34 saying “rms: auto square off block”. The position finally got squared of at 3:22:22. Moreover, I didnt get a postback for the auto square off trade. When I called customer support, this is what happened:
1) Call 1: I was told that Zerodha puts a block at 3:18-3:19 and no orders are accepted beyond that point. She couldnt point to any public info. When I asked why should I pay for the mistake from Zerodha’s content team, she asked me to redial and press 1.
2) Call 2: (This guy was very rude) As per instructions from previous call, I redialed and pressed 1 to get here. When I told this guy about the situation and asked the same question, he didnt listen to me and started talking in a loud voice WHILEI WAS SPEAKING (you cant expect this from customer support). Then he asked me to write a mail to support.
This behavior from Zerodha support is not happening for the first time and has significantly reduced my trust in Zerodha. It’s not jjust about Rs. 20 (which I still want back) but about unprofessional behavior.
– Suyash
Suyash, I am having this charge reversed. Also getting our team to speak to the person who was rude to you. After 3.19, no new MIS positions are allowed.
Thanks Nithin. Please get the 3:19 part included in the website.
Is the stamp duty applied for both selling and buying of shares ?
Yes, on turnover.
Hi Nithin,
It would be help full ,if you guys offer us to select any dates in month for SIP’s investment, as currently zerodha offers 1,5,10,20,25 dates only.
Thanks,
Ajay Patil
If I transfer my holdings from another brokerage how can I update the date of acquiring the shares in Zerodha records
We give an option in Q.zerodha.com for you to enter dates and buy prices.
Hi Nithin,
I had conversation with one of your staff, Mr. Saleesh ,It was nice speaking with him, I explained my concern and he gave solution as well and he also agreed my concern and he said he will be going to raise concern with development team as well.
It is good approach to take feedback from users/customer to make it friendly. Which is doing zerodha. Keep it up.
Thank you 🙂
I don’t have any pledged holdings. and Correct me if my understanding is correct or not ,regarding above question
Thank you.
Hi Nithin,
Please find the below my issue ,which occurring repeatedly
Holdings Value/Total Investment Value on Dash Board is not same as Q- Back Office Equity Account Value/Holding Value There is lot of discrepancy in both.
I Have raised zerodha support ticket many times after that it resolves and some down the lines of days same issue repeats . Could you guys please provide proper fixed solution for this
@Nithin, I know this wrong place to type this question but i don’t have option as i am not getting a resolved and fixed solution for this. and i thought it would be better ,if you aware of this issues as its growing company and I am also one of well wisher of Zerodha
Thank you in Advance.
Ajay, have you pledged holdings with us? That is when there can be mismatch. I am anyways having this checked.
Hi Nithin,
Could you please do let me know when franklin india taxshield fund’s (Tax Saving as well) will added to Coin.
Thanks,
AP
I got a doubt, suppose 2 of us plan to increase the price of a stock in the exchange as below:
I place sell order @ 100
and my friend put buy order @100,
while the stock is trading @90 will the trade gets executed & price of the stock hit high of 100 because of that single trade by us.
Please consider this question as from a beginner stock trader…thanks a lot in advance
No your sell order will be stacked in priority. When your friends place a buy order at 100, it will be treated as market order and whoever is selling at 90 will get filled.
The brokerage calculator (https://zerodha.com/brokerage-calculator) calculation of brokerage and actual brokerage charged per contract note varies. On a contact note of mine, I gained RS 874.78, whereas per brokerage calculator the figure works out to Rs 912. The Exchange transaction charges, stamp duty, Swacha Bharat cess and Krishi Kalyan Cess are not shown in above link. Can you pl incorporate in the above web page so that we will have definite idea of profit/loss after brokerage.
Check this link.
Hi,
Zerodha is a great platform but quite a few issues recently are raising serious concern, please take this as constructive feedback to resolve asap.
1. Yesterday at the time of market close, orders were not accepted by the kite app, which had negative monetary impact.
2. A few days back as well, during the day, traders were not able to put orders for couple of hours which again had a big monetary impact.
3. Q-Backoffice doesn’t show correct P&L for many of the selected periods. Despite raising it multiple times with support team, it is still not corrected.
4. One of my trades on a particular day was not accounted by Zerodha including the profits. Initially support team did agree to this but when i persisted they found out the issue and corrected this. If i had not kept daily log of my trades, I would have lost on these profits. Data integrity should be given top priority.
I believe, Zerodha is truely a great platform but these technical issues need to be resolved to have a loyal clientele who can trust Zerodha for their money.
After opening new a/c do we have to transfer funds to activate the a/c is it mentioned somewhere??
Ya i know.why not ? I wana trade that particular scrip ! Without leverage and i should be allowed to do so
Sohail, Our RMS team has blocked it since hits circuit levels.
isnt Bajajfinance in th F&O listI could not add it to my wishlist.
Ramesh, It is available. Search for “Bajfin” and you can add it to your watchlist.
NITHIN KAMATH ; “RMS:Blocked for nse_cm EROSMEDIA-EQ MIS block type: ALL” ; wth ?i was trying to do intraday trade without using any leverage this thing doesn’t allow me to trade intraday, never had this thing with my previous broker , im out of zerodha now bye
Sohail, Eros isn’t allowed in MIS. Check this here
Ya i know. Why not ? I wana trade that particular scrip ! Without any leverage
I have long term holdings in another brokerage.I wish to sell them,I want to know whether it will be better to first transfer the shares to my Zerodha a/c or sell and transfer the money to Zerodha.In case I transfer them to Zerodha will there be any problem in claiming the long term capital gains.
Ramesh, You could wish to sell/transfer them. If the Date of acquisition is greater than the date of Sale then there isn’t any LTCG. It’ll be nil. There shouldn’t be any issues.
I wanted to find out margin for 7500 put buy at 9300 and 7500 call buy at 9500 But the margin calculator is showing margin as 0 is it correct?
I’m assuming, you’re computing the margins to buy options which is why the calculator shows you the margins as N/A. This is because when you buy options, you’ve to pay the premium upfront which is always = Lot size* Premium amount.
There are no margins charged separately for buying options.
sir, i wiil pay rs. 500 online for zerodha account opening, can have an need another transaction for generating login id for kite…plz suggest me sir

Hi Nithin/Team,
First of all i want to thank you for clarifying all our questions. and i need one more clarifications.
I wanted to start SIP in mutual fund. But I see is minimum amount is Rs 5000 but one of the your operator informed that, for first month it will go as lump sum and next month on wards we can invest min amount from Rs 500 ,till we wish.
However,
So next month on wards if i want to do SIP of Rs 500 on 10th and 24 of Every month ,how can I able to do it. ?
As Currently I am seeing it on weekly or 15 days or monthly or quarterly. But I want to do two transaction one is on 10th and 2nd one is on 24th .Please do let me know how can I achieve it using Coin
Hey Ajay, custom SIPs currently allow you to set up one date per month for investments. We’ll look into the possibility of making more dates possible. In the meantime, you can always run 2 SIPs parallelly for the same fund. 🙂
Hi Team/Nithin,
I wanted to do SIP in Below MF’s Via Coin. but i don’t see below mutual funds. Could you please do let me know when it will be added in Coin.
1. SBI BlueChip Fund
2. HDFC Mid-Cap Opportunities Fund(G)
3. Mirae Asset Emerging Bluechip
Thanks,
Ajay Patil
We are speaking to these AMCs to list the funds on the exchange platform in direct mode.
I am also looking for “Mirae Emerging Bluechip -Direct”. Please add it.
Hi Nitin
i am also looking for -Mirae Emerging Bluechip -Direct (G).
Can you please Give some ETA-when it will be added to the Zerodha coin.
Thanks
Manoj
Manoj, not in our hands. we are following up with Mirae.

Hi
what is the script for stock’s day high,day low,52 week high and 52 week low price??
No script as such.
I recently started using Kite and it is a friendly platform but I have an issue to be clarified..
My demat + Trading account was opened nearly 1.5 months ago but I started using it after a month and in the DASHBOARD SECTION IT WAS SHOWING AVAILABLE MARGIN OF Rs. -3.78. why was it negative?
On 21 April, I added Rs. 5000 to my account (available margin became 4.99k) and did an equity delivery trade and the AVAILABLE MARGIN left was Rs 620.18. But when I checked it on 26 April, my AVAILABLE MARGIN decreased and became Rs 614.
It is decreasing by nearly 1 Rs per day. Why is it so??
First negative amount could be the AMC debit charge from the time you opened account to 31st March 2017. For the other Rs 1 per debit, if you can check contract note and login to Q.zerodha.com, you can see what each charge on your ledger is for.
Thank you . Saw my ledger note. Nothing is being charged per day…query cleared
.
But when will my AMC will be usually charged??? At the end of year or monthly??
End of year.
I have started using Kite only a few days ago and found this quite user friendly. For each transaction, I found that an amount of ₹10.35 is being deducted from my ledger balance showing “Being Payment Gateway Charges Debited”. I could not make out why this amount gets deducted since there is possibly no hints regarding this levy in brokerage calculator. Also does it depend on the charge/dividend bank a/c of the user?
Apart from that, no mail was received from the exchange(NSE) in respect of my successful purchase of equities (CNC) today even if I received an sms from NSE asking for checking my registered mail. But one of my friends received a mail from NSE for an transaction exactly identical to that of myself (same price, same quantity etc) but for a different DP. What should I do now?
Debarshi, if you transfer money from your bank to Kite using payment gateway, this is the payment gateway providers charge. You can send an email to support, we will check if your email is captured correctly on NSE data base.
I wanted to know whether there is any limit for the client set by you like Ventura has 7500 for Nifty future and 2500 for Bnaknifty and overall transaction limit of 25cr.in a day.
Single order limit of 7500 or 2500 is set by exchanges. If you want to trade more, you can do it in multiple orders. No overall transaction limit of Rs 25crores per day.
I have started using Kite only a few days ago. I have a query. Suppose NTPC current price is Rs.165. I want to buy it only at a price of Rs.155 or below. I want a delivery order only by paying full cash. It is difficult for me to track the price frequently and so can I place a SL order with trigger price. I mean “Can I place a SL order with trigger price of Rs.155 and limit price of Rs.154” or “Can I place a SL-M order with trigger price of Rs.155”.
Please clarify.
You just have to place a CNC limit buying order with price as 155. No need to use SL and all. SL is required to buy above the current market price not below (people who trade trends like to buy when price moves up by certain points).
Hi Nitin, thank you for your response. I just found an email delivered to my mail box from NSE around 9:50 pm.
In respect of “Payment Gateway Charges”, kindly let me know where the charge is ‘bi-directional’ i.e. applicable for both transferring money from my bank to Kite and withdrawing money from kite to bank a/c? Your advice is requested to avoid such kind of charges in future.
No, only for transferring into the trading account.
I wanted to know whether there is any limit on the Futures of Nifty and banknifty,also on overall limit.
2.5% of overall open interest. A broker can take 15% of overall OI.
Please let me know how can i get the schedule of the quaterly result announcement date along with the TIME. Result calendar can be found in many sites but i am finding it difficult to identify the time of the announcements.
I think companies are free to announce their results anytime during the scheduled day. I’m not sure if there are any websites that publish this data. You can post it on tradingqna.com to get better response.
I am able to setup price alert for intraday only. How can i setup price alert for equity share which desired price may hit after tomorrow, one week, one month. This feature is required so much for traders who trade in equity delivery and they are not monitoring ondaily basis and need price alert.
I’ll pass on your feedback.
sir, i have a partnership account & i have 15 clients, if all my 15 clients together generates more than 3 lakhs of brokerage within 2 to 3 months so can i get slab rate of 50% ?
thanks.

Hi,
I want to delink my secondary bank account from my trading account..please guide with the same
Please send us a request from your registered email ID to [email protected] and we’ll get this done.
My issues is regarding taxes.I m an intraday derivative trader.From past 2-3 months I have noticed that though I m not making any losses I have been in loss of 3-5k per month because of taxes.I don’t thk my brokerage cost will b much of an issue as I normally execute 2 trades a day.Inspite if tis on reviewing my p&l for the month I found tat I made a loss of (505)&(109) during the past two months bt my taxes wer (5675)&(3900) respectively. I don’t undst how to reduce the turnover charges or wat ever head under which the taxes are charged from me…bcoz I m not a aggressive trader n neither I trade more than a single Lot and even aftr bringing my account to no profit no loss position ,I m losing approx 5k in taxes n brokerage ….can u help me regarding how to trade keeping in view the taxes ?( My account is with zerodha only )
Nisha, STT is usually the biggest cost. Nothing much can be done to avoid this. These are all statutory charges, unfortunately it is quite high in India. Check this: https://zerodha.com/charges
I m curious to know abt the allotment process in IPO…why don’t HNI or NII get allotted more then one lot in an oversubscribed IPO !??!???…and if it is usually a case ,that in case of oversubscription each account is eligible only for a single lot only,no matters how many lots they have applied for,then why ppl borrow huge chunk of money for subscribing in the NII or HNI segment???????i myself has applied for DMart from 3 different accounts.Each amounting to 2 lac but was allotted only single lot in each …:so is it bttr to invest only 45k instead of 6 lacs????
On issues like Dmart, it is very tough to get allotment when over subscription is as much. Maybe you could have gotten same allotment by applying for with 45k. In the HNI category, a client would have put up 1% and borrowed the rest. I think in dmart, if the HNI put up Rs 1 crore, he could apply for Rs 100 crores. I think the allotment would have been for around Rs 35lks, he would have made 35 lks gain out of which financing cost would have been 25 lks for 99 crores. But overall net, he would have still made upwards of Rs 10lks for 1 crore investment. But this was possible only because there was such a big pop on listing.
Hello Sir,
Wanted to know if there is any alternative to check my P&L on financial year basis. ( Short-term and long-term gains)
I might have tried 10-15 times on https://q.zerodha.com/dashboard/ but with no luck, it always says “Bad Gateway”.
Also, I am wondering why you guys are not posting this question here!
Thanks
Can you share your client ID to [email protected]
sir kite holding postion column days chg what is that sir
yesterday to today change.
How options value calculated?
Why it changes even if the value is same. For example:
Nifty is currently at 9000 and I take a call option for 9100 @ 100(expiry after 1 month) but it weakens and at the end of the day call has value to 95 as nifty dips by 20 points. Now, next day even Nifty opens at 20 points plus it it has still value 95. Again if nifty gains 50 points and then fall 50 points i.e. reach to 9000 again and now it shows value 105. Why this happened?? Why at same value of nifty it has 3 different call values ? How these values calculated??
No one two line answer for this Anuj. Suggest you to go through the futures and options module here: http://zerodha.com/varsity/
Sir
when I trying to open the chart a window indicates -unable to fetch historical chart data
what can I do
Hi,
Could you add “Open Interest” as an indicator in Futures and Options?
Hello,
Please solve my doubt about bracket order. Example SBI CMP is 272, day high 276, day low is 268. I want to buy above 274 or shortsell below 270, but why is that it gets executed immediately at CMP?
Anurag, in bracket order currently there is no option to buy with a trigger order as entry. So you can either buy at current or lower price or at market price by placing a limit order at a higher price. Check the video on bracket orders here.
Thanks Sir,
But I believe without the above desired facility the entire idea of bracket order is null and void. Then in this case it is just a bracket order by name without the facility of bracket order. Can we expect Zerodha to come out with real bracket order with the all the benefits of bracket order? Sharekhan in this regard is real helpful which allows you to buy or short as per your comfort only.
We have this on our things to do.Will take time.
Hello sir
I have filled form on 16feb for opening a trading account but my old account was reactivated and demat account was also activated which I don’t required, and I closed it. But my bank account has not been changed yet, please see to the problem, I want to do trading on 14 March. My ID is PS0666
Thankyou
i want to ask u zerodha want 6 month bank statement to open account in F&O segment u required any minimum balance in bank account for 6 month bank statement
Some credits on the bank statement will do.
nitin bro i hav two bank accounts if i send 6 month bank statement different account and link with zerodha diff account there is no issue na coz i my new account only 3 month old
No problem, you can send a 6 month bank statement of the account which you aren’t going to map to Zerodha. You’ll just have to make sure, it’s your own account.
While I try to open chart for BANKNIFTY 9th MAR 21000 CE I am getting message “Error fetching quote:400” and the chart is not getting displayed. Suggest me and I require this for placing orders using KITE Platform.
Seems to be working properly.
The graphs are being wrongly displayed on the pi terminal for the 2nd march,’17. Candles for the day appears twice.
And there are other places in kite as well where graphs of particular months repeat themselves. Its really shocking to see these anomalies as graphs are the most fundamental thing to be kept reliable at their best.
Can you say for which scrips candles are appearing twice on Pi. If possible can you share the screenshot to [email protected] for the same.
Sir

creating problem when I switch internet in between , this has effected my intraday trading few times , please give solution
thanks
Yes, this may happen in some cases when the re-connection is happening between two different networks. If the re-connection is with same network it would be normal. Will try to address it in coming days as there are few limitations for now.
I have finished Petition of huge STT trap on Expiry day mail send by your team … I have a doubt ,
Nifty trading @ 8500 … I took OTM call of 8600 CE @ 50 before 1 week of expiry.
I am tied up with some busy works and even I forget the position too.
Now Nifty is on Bull run, on expiry day Nifty closed above 8600 ( say 8630). My strike price is 8600.
Will my position become ITM because it closed above 8600 ?
So do I have to pay the huge STT ?
Yes, it becomes ITM and yes STT will be much higher.
OMG … I don’t know about this …..
I was bit confused about STT percentage … Please explain with the same example…
Nifty CE 8600 @ 50, Lots : 10, Excise option closed at 90 ( 40 points profit ).
So how much I have to pay as STT . ( bit confused about 0.125% calculation )
Thanks in advance …
Check this post, explanation in detail.
Thanks … New info for me … So if we have a plan to trade on expiry day make it as MIS order , right ?
Yeah better to do that or square off before expiry.
Nithin, Same STT trap is applicable for FUT market too …
No
I am not a full time trader, I want to invest in delivery trading and want to sell some weeks after I bought, can it possible? and also If I buy a share of Rs.100 as CNC and I want to sell it at when the price hits Rs.110 no matter how long it takes, can I give instruction and set leave? (will it execute my instruction without being in online?)
Yes, you can buy and sell anytime you want. Yes you can place a limit selling order and close your system, you don’t have to be online. But this order has to be placed everyday as all pending orders get cancelled end of day.
sir, is there any margin changes in mcx by allowing institutional investor,banks and mutual funds in commodity future market. it means smaller margin to higher margin.
No, no such changes.
Dear Nithin Kamath
your kite web application is excellent and very user friendly..but it is lagging one important feature itseems.
As a client of you I desired that. If it is possible to include kite web next versions please develop it.
Feature details.
for example I want buy nifty feature like below..
Buy above 8858 Tgts: 8873 / 8888 SL: 8838
So your app should buy the nifty feature when it hits 8858 ..once done it has to place orders for target for 8873 and stop at 8838. So if my target 8858 hits it should automatically cancel my stop loss order and vice versa…
Including such a feature in your web application or mobile android application may draw you millions and it is very useful for us also. One thing is for sure it will become very attractive feature..Please include this in your next version
Thanks,
Anand
sir, I bought 1000 share of orient bank at 125.30 and sell 1312 share at 125.25, i make profit of 121.6 Rs. and i didn’t need to buy that extra 312 share . How was it calculated can you explain? Thanks
how much will be the auction penalty in case i bought a cnc product type but sold it before delivery into demat account i.e. before T+2 day
Auction risk comes in only if the guy whom you purchased from defaults. Otherwise no risk. Check this post explains this in detail.
Sir,
Your trading platform is great. And zerodha support is great. I appreciate it.
I have few questions about trading …
1) In pre market (9am to 9:08 am ), if x company share are trading at 100. Can I put an order and buy on that price.
2) after 9:15 am , if I want to sell share of company z at 9:17am. And want to close my position later i.e buy it at about 9:40am. Now, can I put sell order at 9:17am.
Today I put sell order and it got cancelled many times…..
1. No trades happen this time, only orders are collected.
2. Yes you can. Since you are selling/shorting first, you need to use product type as MIS. Check the user manual and videos here: https://kite.trade/docs/kite/
sir, how to calculate average price. EX if i buy 2000 shares at 5 rs and 1000 share at 6 rs. then what will be average price?? and in selling case if i sell 2000 share at 5 rs and 1000 share at 4rs what will be average selling price?
I have lil bit confusion. Thanks
Weighted average (2000 x 5+ 1000 x 6)/2.
i guess, you did mean weighted average (2000*5+1000*6)/3000=5.33 ???
your equation gave me 8000 ans. how could it be 8000!!!???
ah my bad yes, u r rite .
What about a scrip? If i trade 4 times on only one script of less than 1 lakh then will brokerage charge be applied on every trade or on total amount which is 4 lakh, so i have to pay only 20 brokerage. and also stamp duty charges information i want. Thanks
Per trade we charge Rs 20 or 0.01% whichever is lower. So if you buy for Rs 1lk it will be Rs 10 (0.01%) and not Rs 20.
sorry for pardoning, but i’m trading 1 lakh for 4 time which totalling 4 lakh on only one scrip. so my question is that i get charged brokerage 10 rs for every single trade which is 4 trade i.e. 40 rs or on total turnover 4 lakh i.e. only 20 rs.
every time you buy/sell you are charged Rs 20 (or 0.01% whichever is lower). So if you did 4 trades for 1lk, u will be charged 4 x 10 = Rs 40
Sir
Yesterday I have 5000 Rs in my demat account. Then in trading , I lost 250 Rs. Now in my account there are 4055 Rs. Now what is going with this.I am fearing from this…
Please help me

Hello Nithin, i just want to ask that currently the forex trading in India is allowed only in inr pairs and in future contracts but is anytime the spot trading or trading on the current forex market will be open for us?
Sir,
If I earn 50 in one order in intraday. Then what is the brokerage charges on this. ?????
Brokerage is either 0.01% or Rs 20 whichever is lower. If you place an order for Rs 10,000 for intraday brokerage will be only Rs 1.
Why my position got converted in Intraday when i sold my holding position ???? Unnecessary i’m buying and selling from Position to holding!!! Brokerage expense is also gng . And there is none of customer support number available whr to call man, which service are you providing??
When you sell from holding, for that day it shows in position. It shows there because many people like to sell stocks and then buy back before end of day. If you don’t want to buy back, ignore that position, end of day it will automatically disappear. Check this video. You can always call our call center, 080-40402020, it is on our website.
sir, can someone become master in trading without having a job in stock market? for living?
Yep, there are many.
Does Zerodha allows buying of penny stocks?
Yes,All stocks trading on the exchanges can be bought.
I trade only in MCX market.My questions:
1) Can we cancel two orders at a single time?
Ex:Suppose I trade in Crude Oil.As per rules in a single order I can buy 100 lots or 2.5% of OI.Now I have free cash still left.So I put first order of 100 lots and again I placed 2nd order of 100 lots more.Another 3rd order of 100 lots.So now I have 3 orders;100 lots each order..Now can I exit the the 3 orders at the same price or I need to exit manually one by one by clicking on EXIT.(Assume I am using Cover Order). ???
Sorry the question is Can we exit the 3 orders at a single time??Not the 2 orders…
What you can do is place limit exit pending orders (multiple of them). When you want to exit all, modify all pending orders at same time to market price.
Can I use limit exit pending orders in Cover Orders as u told me in this post. I guess not.Its a separate order type,cant use with Cover Order. Is it??
Ah no, you can’t limit exit pending cover order.
Yes, you can cancel all pending orders at same time. You can also go to positions and square off all open positions on a scrip at same time. If you have more than per order limit, you can do it in small bits.
Is the feature enabled in Kite? And if yes then where should I click to Exit all??
Currently not on Q, but on our list of things.
Kindly bring this feature asap.Because there are lot of commodity traders from my office only who trade after 6pm.We cant install third party softwares like Pi.The only method we use is Kite.So kindly enable this feature so that we can also increase the orders and lot size.
—Thank You.
hello sir,
Is there any kind of hidden cost in BO and CO
how exactly the margin feature works.suppose for example i traded 100 quantity of BOB
@129.20 and sell @130 rs so the total margin required is 621(SL 128.20), in this trade i make profit of rs 62 so in this trade do i have to pay any extra cost other than brokerage and other taxation, is there any cost required to for the bracket order placement (my total trade was 12,920 )
No extra costs Sandesh
how do i add sensex in Kite ? Even in Pi im not able to open sensex chart , it notify in pi that only live data can be fetched not an old one and then chart comes empty with black screen.. Why is it happening ?
You can’t add Sensex on Kite for now. Also Sensex chart isn’t available yet on Pi.
so when you’ll be starting this basic feature ???
dear nitin,
i am a graduate and have a certificate of NCCMP..i am trying to read and learn as many books i can to improve myself in this field and giving my 100 percent towards it and want to be an individual trader(long term) and an investor.. i have a decent financial background..am going on a right track? it is very important me to know..please as a mentor what will you suggest..what mistakes am i making? i am very confused. Getting me a job in any brokerage firm or in NSE/BSE will help me towards my goal or i should sit at home and practice more to trade and invest? i am ready to give it all in. Please reply.
please do reply sir.
If you are serious about a career in investment, then you need to look at getting yourself a CFA certificate from CFA Institute, USA. Post this, you need to aim at getting yourself a job with asset management companies. This will be a great start to developing a career in investment management.
I’M F&O trader and also invest for long term.If I mention income from F&O as business income and if I sold shares after 12 monthes then will I eligible for capital gain benefit ? Can I be the trader and investor at the same time?
Yes, you can claim the LTCG benefit while being a trader trading the F&O segment. But to do that, you’ll have to have a clear distinction between your F&O and Equity trades and you’ll have to maintain proper books of accounts. As long as you’re able to convince the assessing officer (if needed), you could claim the benefit of all LTCG’s.
Dear Sir,
Can I place a buy order at a price higher than the market price as After Market Order?
It it possible with Kite?
Yes.
Dear Sir,
I am trading using kite. When I put a limit order, the order is executing at market price. Please advice me
Are you sure you’re placing the order the right way? You would use a limit order:
a) If you wish to buy at a price lower than current market price
b) If you wish to sell at a price higher than the current market price
How can I add SENSEX or NIFTY in my market watch to do some technical analysis?
What platform are you using to trade?
Sir,
I have a an account in zerodha which has been referred by someone, but now I want to get my account mapped under somebody else. Why is this is not possible as I have opened account through him because I wanted to use his services, but now I do not require them and want to use somebody else’s service.
Tagging an account to a partner is a one time activity, you can choose to avail services from any 3rd party of your choice. This has no bearing on the account you hold with us.
in the contract notes no DP charges are shown but recently DP charges are showing in ledger. what are these?
these occurred thrice recently.
DP or Depository participant charge is levied on stock movement out of demat account which managed by depositories (NSDL or CDSL). This has no relation to contract note which captures all trades and related charges executed on the stock exchanges (NSE or BSE). Hence DP charges and also demat account maintenance charges are levied separately on the ledger and not on contract note.
Hi Nithin,
Thank you for this convenient trading platform, and the extensive educational section. Occasionally I’ve some issues with Kite, still trading has been a pleasant experience here. Please consider adding these two indicators to Kite: Laguerre and Stochastic histogram. Laguerre seems to be an oscillator for finding cycles.
Now it’s turned around 180 deg. Kite started hanging from today 1 pm and Pi is not showing candles above 1 hour. Strange- All good things must come to an end? (:
Support called and resolved.
i just opened new ac with zerodha, i got pi today
but very bad exp, noone to tell how to use tht software , very poor support u have. very disappointed
wht is api , how to use tht .? wht is EA, ? how we can knw tht ? very bad support system
why there is noone who can explain this all?
why renko chart is always hang ?
there is noone who can listen or solve ,
whn i ask to my sales person , they sent me mail with links of z connet and zerodha q and a,
it means we have to take full course like reading all ques and ans abt everone then try to solve our query by ourselves.
i hope someone here wil solve my issues.
i am in markets more then 10+ years , used many charting and trading software and have ac with many broker also , but not faced this kind of disappointing from anyone, yeah they may be take more time to resolve and yeah ofcourse charges higher in terms of brokerage and other charges but my trade wil nt stop , and i think its first priority,
if trade wil nt placed then no use of lower charges or free.
every time i got very bad feelings when try to talk or mail to sales person .
“There is always no charge for dreams , it only costs when u try to manifest them”
Alap, I will check why you were not given demo on. If you go to this section on Zconnect, you will see everything you need to know on Pi.
Today(Mon) I tried Intraday on galada telecom BSE
Prev close Rs10.4 open 10.0 L/U price band 8.32 to 10.48Rs
cur mar price 10.4 steadily no ups no downs
in MIS I tried SL with price 9.70,9.50, trigger 9.60,9.50,9.30,8.40 all orders rejected
it always says stop price is not reasonable default values for price and trigger are cur mar prices
so what is the use of SL if we have to buy at mar price
in MIS I tried SL-M with price 9.60 order rejected it says check last trade price(10.40) vs trigger price(9.60)
if we set trigger price as 10.40 then we have to buy at LTP (10.40) then what is the use of SL-M
Only MIS Limit order with price 9.00 was placed
even when they have to explain about SL orders they don’t say directly with simple examples they confuse us by saying that place SL order for the stocks we already possess. they don’t say how to buy on SL SL-M orders
I think they profit upon our orders by using some software as our orders are processed by their servers
we have to understood that information is eqal to money they don’t give information clearly
Hmm.. Siva, everything about stoploss orders is explained here. Will get someone from our team to call you up and explain.
Cannot access this link posted by you sir @Nithik Kamath
Hi Divya, this article was related to a platform we don’t offer anymore. You can learn more about Stoploss orders on Kite here.
Hi Nithin,
I am an account holder with zerodha, i have some query, I know this is not the correct platform to put up this question, but i will be really great-full to you to please reply on my queries.
I want to know some thing about binary option trading, i have been doing virtual binary option trading with virtual money for the past some weeks and i found it profitable. Can you please let me know that weather it is legal in India? and if it is then which broker will be good to open an account with?
Thanks,
Ajay
Ajay, it is not legal to trade them in India.
Thanks for your quick reply Nithin,
What if, i get an account with some foreign broker registered to deal in binary option trading, and then start trading in binary options, further if i will pay all my taxes in this relation also, in that case also it is not legal?
It’s a grey area, there are no regulation that explicitly allows/disallows it. Since you wouldn’t know the regulatory structure of the entity you’re opening an account with, it’s best avoided.
sir my question is can i have a buy position and short sell postion in one script both the postions are in NRML not in intraday.
for example i bought silvermic in future contract assumeing that the price of silver will go up and suddenly it goes down. now i want to place other order of silvermic in future like short selling as the price is falling down. now my question is that i dont want to square off my buy position becasue i still believe that the price of silvermic will increase in future as it is in future contract.. so can we do short sell and my buy position should not be get squared off…. please waiting for your reply…
Not possible Chirag. At one time you can have only one directional position. You can’t be both long and short Silver in NRML.
Hello,
during the extreme volatile session yesterday, (morning first one hour) I faced a lot of failures to book/place trade orders.
I was using Kite web mode ( I tried kite in mobile too, but it failed to login).
Is there any other website/mode which you suggest is more reliable and faster during these kind of extreme volatile sessions ?
I had this problem during BREXIT as well !
Thanks
Yash, we are working on ensuring that performance doesn’t drop during such times. We should have a solution in the next couple of weeks.
Thanks Nithin for the prompt reply,
hopefully we will not face this kind of situation during extreme volatile sessions in future with Zerodha 🙂
If invested in mutual funds of ELSS category, can I get margin to trade in f&o, if yes how much pl
No, mutual funds can’t be pledged currently
why is that Jan on nifty futures are showing as NIFTY17JAN has expiry date changed from last Thursday of the month.
This will get corrected by next month, usually exchange have the 17 to signify 2017 the first time next year contract appears.
I ordered some share but they rejected and message is showing “””rms:blocked for nse_cm prozonintu-eq mis block type: all”””
PROZONINTU NSE
ITI NSE
and so on
as i ordered every time rejected msg. is showing.Please tell me.
what’s the meaning of this message ?
Mayank, MIS or intraday orders are not allowed on PROZONINTU currently. If you are trying to buy stock for delivery, use product type as CNC.
Hello sir,
Today i was using kite. I ordered some shares and trying to sold my holdings also, during market hours but in my Order book (open orders) message was showing “Nothing here” but after 2 or 3 minutes shares was appear in my order book. it was happen twice during the market hours.Earlier i never see this problem.Please resolve this problem.
Why its showing T1 holding, i am a bit confuse as i am a new in the market..
When you buy a stock in India, it comes to your demat account/holdings after two days. Until then it shows in T1. Check this link.
Hello sir. i m beginner today i saw “Stock widget” icon in kite.Earlier i never seen this icon on kite.Stock widget is powered by small cases.
please tell me.Should i pay amount or Zerodha just updated this icon on kite.
It is powered by smallcase, there is no charge for this. It is provided to help you when making investing decisions.
I am new in stock market.Please tell me I bought some share on 18/10/16.it is CNC product type but today share price has been moved very high but due to t+2 day.today means 19/10/2016 .it is second day and share is not showing in my holdings but i want to sell.
Please tell me
can i sold share before showing my holdings or i should i wait?
You can sell shares on 19th also. If you sell shares before taking delivery of them, you’re doing a BTST transactions (Buy today, sell tomorrow). There’s a slight risk in doing such transactions which you can read here: http://zerodha.com/z-connect/queries/stock-and-fo-queries/btstatst-buyacquire-today-sell-tomorrow
Sir my friend live in Egypt and he is permanent resident of Egypt and he wants to open trading & demat account with Zerodha so can he open account?
If yes.
then ,tell me what are important documents required for opening account if person belong to outside India.
Mayank,
He cannot open a normal trading and demat, he will have to come through the FPI route. Check this SEBI doc.
Why Stock Sybyl on bse is shown as zero price .
Are you checking the price on Kite? If yes, then it’ll show 0 when the markets are closed.

Hey Kiran, you can post taxation related-queries on our forum TradingQnA.
Thank you for your reply sir. sir one more question can I earn 5k to 10k if I trade only in one lot of silvermic..please suggest me because I am only interested in silvermic…
Don’t have an answer to that question Chirag.
Thank you for your reply sir. sir one more question can I earn 5k to 10k if I trade only in one lot of silvermic..please suggest me because I am only interested in silvermic…waiting for your reply sir
Sir how much investment is required to trade in only in silvermic. Because I have only 10k can I trade on that for future basis. Sir please let me know. Waiting for your reply…
You can compute the margin requirement from here https://zerodha.com/margin-calculator/Commodity/
Stability of Q is a major issue (90% of the time, we get the error “502 Bad Gateway”) and for most part of the day, it is not available. When raised with support, we get a standard response that the issue has been fixed and one has to re-login. Even after re-login, the same story continues and it is becoming tough to trade without data from Q. When the issue was escalated to the technical team in August 2016, it was told that enhancements to Q were happening and would be completed within a month after which the issue won’t recur. Even after 2 months, there is no improvement. Do you have any plans to make Q stable or is it just a fancy tool which cannot be used.
Respected venu sir, thanks for your quick reply, And for your kind information I always made payment through IMPS and also send the snap-shot through back office…then also why should i call your support for updating and as I am having account in United Bank Of India,So i am not getting the payment options via “Payment Get-way” in NEST,Those are disable. So please rectify this issue with strict-hand action for future.Thanks.
Hello Sir,
2 questions i have.
1. Is there any options to have short term loan on trading account?(demat?) if margin get reduce and position about to close/square off automatically?
2. If i have four options ( 2 ITM and 2 OTM)position opened on expiry date(Nifty last Thursday of the month).
I close one ITM and OTM just before market closing and let balance one ITM and another OTM expire.
which is better close before or let expire in terms of taxes, STT, service charges etc..
thanks and regards
1. If you have stocks, you can choose to pledge them and raise margins to trade in the F&O segment.
2. Close all ITM options to avoid paying higher rate of STT
ITM short and long options have same effect in this ?
You pay additional stt only when you are long ITM options and don’t square it off. Normally stt is paid by the seller except in the latter case. So when you short options, you would have already paid stt.
thank you so much Venu.
It is clear now.
Can i currency options through nest trading?
is it weekly or monthly?
thanks
Currency option contracts are monthly expiry contracts.
is it available at nest plus?
Hello sir, My Zerodha Clint ID is RM3141,Everyday morning i am facing a problem while i try to open my ZerodhaQ-Backoffice. Its taking so much time to get open. Several time its not opening and showing an Error,Even on that whole day its not getting open at all. Apart from that I have another complain regarding Zerodha accounts department, When a client transferring money from his/her Individual bank account to Zerodha trading account along with a snap-shot,Then that amount should be updated automatically within a certain time limit,But its not happening, From my personal experience I am saying this, after transferring the amount in market hours I waited for 1 hour approx but Zerodha accounts department had not update my balance, So i called up to Zeroda customer care and then after half an hour approx they have update my balance to my trading account.I think it should not belike this, after transferring the amount within market hours why should client will make call to customer support for updating, It suppose to be update automatically, So I would like to request you to Mr Kamath for taking care of these kind of issues please. Zerodha is a brand,and i appriciate Zerodha services excluding those two issues. So will hope for good result on this in future.Thanks
Thanks for your feedback Manas. Apologise for the inconvenience caused. We’ll look into the Funds issue, typically NEFT takes 2-3 hours, IMPS, if screenshots have been uploaded takes 10-15 mins. I suggest you use the payment gateway to make transfers where updates are instant. There’s a small convenience fee of Rs.9+ST for it. About Q, we’re done some changes on the backend to ensure you don’t face any downtimes.
sir,please tell me
I want to transfer fund from my bank a/c to trading a/c. Zerodha is charging 9 rupees for instant transfer but i want to use NEFT for transferring money. o Please tell me.
Should i send any screenshot to Zerodha ?
how much time Neft transfer takes?
Can i transfer after 7 pm?
Will i have to give any information to Zerodha or automatically funds will appear in my trading a/c after NEFT?
NEFT takes 3-4 hours to get updated. There’s no need to send any screenshots if you’re doing NEFT transfers. It’s better to transfer using the payment gateway since the update is instant.
Which engine/framework does tradingqna site use?
I have account with zerodha from last 1 years . Since last 2 months I am starting to get calls from equity research firm to subscribe to there stocks tips. Why zerodha sharing there client info to such form? ow they did get client details and disturb unnecessary even client is not interested.
Also Zerodha is sharing client portfolio who is earning good profit to other client by charging some amount.Its unethical and client portfolio should not be shared at any circumstances.
Request you to look into this.
Rohit, we would never share your number with anyone. This is generally an industry problem where people are getting database of people who trade/invest and keep calling them to sell tips. The next time you get a call, you need to report it to TRAI by sending SMS to 1909.
We never share any client portfolio. We run an initiative called https://opentrade.in/, where clients can opt to share their portfolio for a fees. Do check out: https://opentrade.in/
Bought 250 McDowell holdings at 39.4 ,cnc, price is now fixed at 49.65 , 52wk high, no sellers, what to do, pls suggest fast, sell by converting to mis or hold for tomorrow for more profit??????
Sorry Anivsh, we aren’t into advisory.
Dear Nitin,
It is quite regrettable that, standard of Customer service of Zerodha has gone down considerably. It is only last month I had you contacted through this blog reporting my disappointment with your staff concerning error in P/L report generation in q.zerodha for the month of July. It took more than 2 weeks for them to resolve that issue. You had checked with me if it was Ok, which I had replied in affirmative after checking. However, I had not checked if the P/L report generation was alright for all months in this FY. Subsequently, when I checked I found that, P/L re[port generation for the previous month that is June 16 is now not happening. So while sorting out July month’s P/L report generation problem, technical staff have CREATED a new problem.
I reported customer service immediately with reminders. However, even after 3 weeks it still remains unresolved.
I request you to kindly look into this matter earnestly to resolve ASAP. Kindly let me know after it’s been done with reason for cropping up of such issues.

Is fund transfer necessary from the registered saving account or neft transfer can b done from any other account also???
Only from registered bank account.
Hi Nithin,
I am using PI platform…..
In chart candle bars value will differ from screen(Default MW) value, why it is? and which is the correct value Default MW screen value or Chart candle bar value?
For instance nifty hit the low at 9.44 am
8817.85 in screen and in 8819.75 in chart(1 min candle) both are at 9.44 am
I saw it happens stocks also
Waiting for your reply
Thanks
Vijendra
Have answered a similar question here.
Sir, I didn’t find the answer here…..can you please answer for the same..
Thanks
There are two different servers that sends data to marketwatch and data to charts. In a second there could be 100 different trades recorded on the exchange. Trading platforms at best can show one to three ticks per second. So the tick that is received on marektwatch could be different than what the charting engine gets.
Sir, have submitted a/c opening form, hope a/c will open soon. Got a qstn, what if I buy as delivery and sell all same day before close? Or a part before close? Will it b considered intraday?
Yes, will be considered intraday
Hi,
Does it require to open a demat account as well to trade in equities INTRADAY. My EQ segment not yet enabled.
Only CDS and FNO are available there on PI. Underlying asset also needed for data purpose even if I only trade derivatives .
Thanks and Regards
Atul
Yeah, demat is required to be opened/mapped to see equity prices.
Dear Nitin Kamath
You still not understand the problem of your terminal.

Mr kamat….
i had asked a question regarding participating participating in RBB ( reverse book building) above on ul 19th. But, there is no response on it so far.
Kindly respond
Dear Mr. Kamath,
I have a feedback for you which is in favor of Zerodha.
I have shifted my portfolio to Zerodha on 11/07 and This needs a manual input of price and dates of each trade. We need so called backoffice support. Now after 23 emails , 10s of so called ticket and more than 10 calls , My portfolio is still not correct. Satyajit, Sura, Akshay etc I am done with many such names for such a small issue. And below is last email I have puting after getting frustrating to limits. You really need to look in to it.
Hi Akhsay,
I am still waiting for your email to confirm the callback by EOD with Mr. Anand (Satyajit’s manager) . I hope you didnt lie saying you already sent an email.
Thanks
Ajit, I think we are probably the only brokers who allow this to happen. Give an option to enter prices on transferred stocks to DP with breakdown. This feature is a little buggy and we are currently working on building an all new Q with this feature fixed. Hence this is taking time. I will still speak to the guys on this and see if we can do something asap.
Hello Mr Nitin,
I need help participating in a RBB process for one stock in my portfolio. Am using Kite and not sure if this can be done using any of your platforms. Kindly let me know how i can go about it. As you are aware, i can place a bid only through the broker for the RBB.
Requesting your support in addressing this.

Hello,
Can we automate the Buy and Sell and vice versa, using Pi in live market.
Since I am from software background i would like to automate my Trade in PI.
Eg: Using technical indicators cross overs, can the buy sell and sell buy, be automated on to live market in PI.
Dharanish, it can be, but needs exchange approvals and all. If you are a programmer, a better idea would be this: https://kite.trade/docs/connect/v1/
Hello Mr Nithin,
Super trend is not part of PI platform.
could you pls adopt that indicator to PI as well.
Supertrend will be available in the next release of Pi.
Hello Mr Nithin,
There is an option of putting on buy and sell order directly on PI screen, buy giving a right click.
However its a wonderfull option, I have a suggestion from my end if it can updated, by giving a flixiblity of moving that buy, sell or Stop loss order manually which is given on PI chart directly .
I hope you understood my explaination.
You can place SL orders from the Pi chart. If you’re trying to buy higher than LTP or trying to sell lower than LTP, the order type automatically is a SL-M order.
Dear Team,
Do you have stocks price alert option for Kite Trading Platform?

Ajay, if anything stock specific, maybe you should ask on http://tradingqna.com/
I am not able to transfer funds from my bank to trading account. Has this also been blocked for the day?
I am an intraday trader. Since today only normal buys and sells can be done, am trying to add funds but the submit button seems to be disabled. Please do let me know. If funds transfer from bank to trading account is also blocked for the day, I would rather spend my time playing in my XBox rather than staring at the screen 🙂
There’s no reason to stop fund transfer. It’s a little difficult to ascertain why it happened, more so because there were no payment gateway related issues.
Sir, today i can’t trade. Because of every order are rejected. My id- PA0074
Boss. Due to volatility, intraday is blocked. so, you cannot trade intraday today. only positional
Hello Mr Nithin,

Will take some more time.
Hi Nithin,
How to adjust Fibonacci setting in pi and can we expect Fibonacci extension in the pi or kite?
thanks,
Bharath
Kite has it, when you choose fib in drawing tools, under setting you see the various ratios. Some are in -ve which mean retracements, some are +ve which mean extension.
Hi,
Not sure whether this is the right forum to raise this point. I am an intraday trader. I see that the Point & Figure Chart and Renko Chart are very useful to someone like me. While the charts appear to be constructed correctly for price actions that have already completed, however, in the live chart, they do not function properly. Here is an example:
Live Point & Figure Chart:
————————————
Security: Nifty Futures (let’s say, Nifty Jun Fut)
Box Size: 4
Let’s say that Nifty is at 8100.
Let’s say that the previous move was the completion of the “O” column.
Nifty now moves to 8104.
A New “X” column should be formed, with the position of the “X” adjacent to the 2nd “O” (or adjacent to the “O” that is above the bottom most “O” of the previous column)
So, this is what should happen. Unfortunately, in live chart, it removes the bottom most “O”, which means that I still cannot see a reversal in price. This point would be an exit point for me if I am short on Nifty Fut.
A similar issue happens with live Renko Charts. In the above example, instead of creating a new Green box, it erases the lowest Red box.
If this issue is resolved, it’ll be pretty simple for someone like me to make amazing returns. But, Since I am not able to see the changes in live charts for these 2 chart types, I am missing exit points.
Kindly do the needful and fix this issue so that a retail trader like me can profit enormously and put the money made to good use of the society
Best Regards
Vijay Krishnan
Are you using Kite or Pi?
Nithin,
This happens in both Kite and Pi.
Nithin,
I noticed one more thing. When I change the chart duration,i.e., 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, 5 min etc, the Renko and Point & Figure charts change. These 2 charts are time independent, but, on both Kite and Pi, these 2 charts seem to change for different time periods. This could probably be one of the reasons why they are not behaving as they should. They should purely be drawn on price action alone. Just thought this might help in adding more insight while your developers are looking at the issue
Vijay, currently on Kite, they box size changes with change of timeframe. So it is not really the time frame changing, it is the box size changing.
Hi Nithin,
Thanks for the info. Can you please tell me what are the box sizes that Kite defaults to for different time frames? That’ll be nice to know and interpret.
But, the other behavior that I had highlighted in my 1st post, i.e., the bottom most box or top most box being taken out instead of a new box being formed the other way, please do look into it. It is very important that they work accurately in live charts.
When you change the time frame, you can see on the chart itself what the new box size is.
The new box seems to be forming correctly. Anyways having this checked.
Hmmm. So,should I wait for the time period to complete to see the box that are correctly formed? I have not done that. If this is the case, I will use a 1 min chart for Renko and P&F. I will try this out and keep you posted, in order to avoid unnecessary work for your Dev team.
You don’t have to wait for the time period to complete, you have to wait for the box to complete and give you a tick about the box size. So if box size is 1, stock is at 100, only if the price goes above 101 will the new box be formed.
In that case Nithin, I do see existing boxes being erased instead of new boxes being formed.
Seems to be working fine for me. You are looking at Kite right?
Open a Nifty future chart, set the range as 2 when u open the renko chart. So the box size is 2. If current box is 8278-8280, a new green box will form only when the price is over 8282 (if it goes 8282 and comes down, the box will plot and dissapear) or if price goes below 8276. Just checked now, works fine.
Ok Nithin. Thanks
Thanks Nithin. It works as you have explained. By the way, I would still like the box to stay rather than taking it off. My point of view is, once Renko draws a box, it shouldn’t be removed. These boxes can act as strong future support / resistance levels as well. Just my 2 cents.
Banknifty weekly options still not available on kite.when same will be available.
Hopefully by the weekend.
Thanks for quick reply.
Hope to see BNF weekly Options on kite by Monday.
Can we place BO,CO orders on kite browser platform,am not able to do so.

Dear Nithin sir
I’m a intraday trader. I would like to know that how “securities transaction tax” calculated. Because of its higher than brokerage charges how i minimize this
You can use our brokerage calculator for checking out the STT.
Dear nithin, will it b possible to have super trend indicator in pi software? M more comfy using pi software & it would b superb to have super trend in pi wherein I can place orders directly from the chart unlike kite, where I need to pop out the chart window for better clarity.
Guru, yes supretrend on Pi will be available soon. Btw, trading from charts on Kite also should be out soon.
hello sir,
suppose in bracket order I buy nifty @8000 with 50 points stop loss and 50 points target now if nifty is at 7000 and it goes from 7000 to 8050 now my question is
1-will I get profit or not
2-if not then what is wrong in this trade
Sarvesh, Nifty@7000? I am guessing it is a typo.
IF Nifty goes from 8000 to 8050, yes your target order will get executed and stoploss cancelled.
Zpin 1605, Just wanted to know meaning of retention statement that I was sent yesterday.. and it’s implications pertaining to Alchem shares I had purchased 3 days back.

There is no horizontal line in the technical tools of Pi. This tool is basic. Please get this included. In case already there then do let us know.
Thanks

hi, at the end of market hours what is auto square off?
at what price shares will get squared off either it is a buy or sell?
ON normal days it is 10mins before closing. If you have bought scrips as MIS, everything gets squared off 10 mins before close.
hi, if we gain any short term profit by selling stocks whether we need to pay any tax like short term capital gain tax?
if so how much? and where it is going to be deducted?
Yes, 15%. Do go through this module for everything u need to know on taxation while trading http://zerodha.com/varsity/module/markets-and-taxation/
15%, Do make sure to read this http://zerodha.com/varsity/module/markets-and-taxation/
pls let me know, after opening trading a/c and d-mat with u, can i start trading with minimum amount like rs.1000 transfered to trading a/c? or is there any such minimum amount is required?
pls reply asap.
No minimum, u can trade as much.
I have Doubt Regarding This ..Can Anyone Pls Clarify It ..
So in CNC Order Its Clear That No Need to Put Any Stop Loss , or No fear of Getting Negative Balance ….I can Hold Shares as Long as i want in DMAT Account …….
I have Doubts Regarding EQUITY MIS Order NOT BRACKET or COVER ORDER
Say i have Purchased 1000 Shares of PNB At a Price of 77 using MIS Order in Equity.
My questions Are
1.when I place Trade At 77 . Market Goes down to 75 , So Is there is Any Possibility of Getting Negative Balance In my account ? Or I have time Till 3:20 To close The Trade ?
2.Is there any Possibility of Trade closed Automatically when Price Goes down from 77 to 75 ?
1. When you buy 1000 shares at 77 for intraday, u r buying Rs 77000 worth of shares and a margin is blocked. Assume this margin is 10% or Rs 7700. If your account has only Rs 77000 and if market falls Rs 7.7, then you would have lost the entire Rs 7700 in your account. If markets any further below 69.3 (77-7.7), your account will go in negative. Once you take a position you can hold till 3.20pm, provided you are maintaining the balance of Rs 7700.
2. Not at 75, but typically if the margin required in your account drops by more than 40%, it is possible. So if you had only Rs 7700 and you lost Rs 4000, your account balance is now at 3700, our RMS system might auto square this off.
Is This same procedure applied to CNC Oerders Also ? Concept of Negative Balance ? So If I bought 1000 Shares By paying 77000 in CNC , How many Days I can Hold Them ?
No, when you buy Equity shares, they’re fully paid for which means you can hold them till you wish to sell them off yourself.
Dear Team,
Just wanted to know why the pi/kite/q Cash limits doesnt get updated time to time.Earlier it used to get done by 7pm or so.Please look into this as it creates confusion during fund withdrawals.
Thanks.
We try and complete the process ASAP. We’re dependent on the Exchange sending us files and hence sometimes there’s a delay. We’ll see what best we can do to address this.
Mr. Nithin Kamath, instead of solving the problem, why r u deleting my post. Let the world know your mistakes too.
Richard, there’s no reason to delete a post. We had issues with Exchange lines on which we have no control. Please write an email to [email protected] giving details of your client ID and the concerned people will get back to you.
Sir, I have lost money in yesterday’s trade because of your system fault. I have bought Asian paint @ 897.5 with a stoploss of 895.5 and tgt of 899. But because of your system fault it triggered both side. As it is a bracket order it should cancel immediately when it touches tgt or SL, .Its been informed to support team to close all my holdings before the end of the day as it was not working from my side. Now they are saying that I had a open position in Asian paint sell side n they cleared it today morning with Rs 5000 loss. Tell me who is responsible for this. Do you our money is safe with you guys? Will you compensate my lost money? Who is responsible for my loss. Whole day your phone did not work (busy) whenever called all day. Tellvme how will I get my money back. Need a investigation on this issue.
Sir,
I have just received the form form 4 opening. I fear due to all discussion going on frequently over POA.
IN UR POA form there are no of points mentioned (around 21).it is difficult to understand in better way( A lawyer can explain it better).From those all points I COULD NOT FIND that POWER OF ATTORNEY HAS BEEN KEPT LIMITED(What
Ur team is telling this is’ SPECIFIC’ POWER.
My simple question is whether He can debit/credit from my a/c after my instruction (by any means) only. Or he can do it without my instructions also.
Waiting for Ur reply
Thanks
POA is for demat account and not for trading. Check this post, explains everything.
I would like to know when the Zerodha demat account holders will have the margin facility by pledging their shares.
In the next two weeks.
I want to open an account with zerodha. I requested to call back in zerodha website but till now no calls are coming from zerodha.
Our team has been trying to reach you on the mobile given 8011550549 which seems to be continuously switched off.
Mr. Nitin,
While surfing I came across this site. There are hundreds of people complaining about your company, people, working style, software failure etc. Link http://www.mouthshut.com/product-reviews/Zerodha-reviews-925670738
I was thinking of opening an account with your company. Because one of my friends has opened with your company.
What is your say on this? You prompt reply will be highly appreciated.
[email protected]
Manus, there are bound to be some people who will not be happy. Places like mouthshut etc, are places where even competitors jump in to bring the brand name down. Best would be to talk to someone who is actively trading with us, maybe your friend.
Dear Mr. Nitin,
Can you explain why you guys are playing with the software during the market hours? are you not aware that fiddling around a live system is dangerous? today, none of your systems are working and we, customers are loosing heavily. Who will be responsible for this?
Regards,
Vishnu Sankaran
Thank you Mr. Nitin
I really need to do one thing while trading, that I can not set up by myself, please give me some suggestion:
Can you plz help with a script that will be able to scan the securities of NFO based on Bollinger Band and MACD like
if the condition is like (Candle closes above Upper Bollinger Band and MACD is above zero line and MACD directing upwards), then
we get an alert for the list of securities meeting this condition for upside entry
if the condition is like (Candle closes below Lower Bollinger Band and MACD is below zero line and MACD directing downwards), then
we get an alert for the list of securities meeting this condition for downside entry
The alert need not repeat every candle for a particular security.
If the third clause within bracket i.e. MACD direction is too difficult to implement, you may plz skip that.
Parameters of Bollinger and MACD need not be hard-coded. As an user, I should be able to insert the values.
So, I’d expect a list of Futures (current month only), every new candle. I accept that every candle will not generate a list either upside or downside.
Can anybody help me to fix the matter?
Kushal, what you are asking for is not possible on Pi. You can do it on Amibroker, if you are finding it tough try contacting neotradeanalytics.com
Hello,
I have opened my trading account recently with zerodha and want to add hdfc as a secondary bank account ..so what should i do???..PLZ GUIDE
Email us a scanned copy of your HDFC cheque leaf and asking for it to be mapped as secondary bank.
Thanks for the reply…..
i am a cadet in merchant navy.but for the last 1 year i haven’t sailed but i have CDC.for getting NRI status,i had to sail
for 180 days in a financial year.can i open trading and demat account in resident status.
i am maintaning a normal saving account and havent recieved any salary
for last 1 year.
Yes you can open a normal savings account.
so,what will happen if i again join ship.then my NRI status will change every year.if i sail for 180 days in a financial year,i am NRI and i dont have to pay tax.otherwise i am not NRI.if i open a trading and demat account with zerodha,what will happen when my residential status changes.
please provide a seperate article for those who works in merchant navy,since its really confusing.a lot of my friends are also interested in investing but we are unable to understand the rules and regulations,since alternate years,we may be resident indian or NRI.
thank you
Your residential status may keep changing depending on your length of stay at India. The Income Tax Act has a special provision for people in the merchant navy. Accordingly
“Under Section 6(1), an individual is said to be resident in India in any previous year if he satisfies any one of the following basic conditions:
He is in India in the previous year for a period of at least 182 days or,
He is in India for a period of at least 60 days during the relevant previous year and at least 365 days during the four years preceding that previous year.
In case an Indian citizen leaves India for employment abroad in any year for the purpose of employment (or where an individual, who is a citizen of India, leaves India as a member of the crew of an Indian ship), or where an Indian citizen or a person of Indian Origin, who has settled abroad, comes on a visit to India in the previous year, shall not attract clause (b) of the basic conditions Therefore, such individuals may stay in India upto 181 days in a given previous year without becoming resident in India for that previous year. An individual who does not satisfy either of the above basic conditions is non-resident for that previous year.”
The onus of declaring the residential status vests on you. However for convenience, I may suggest getting an account opened in the name of spouse/parents and trading.
In mobile app It shows only f and o, (NSEFO)and CDS wheres equity and commodity ,
My guess is that your demat account is not opened yet, and u probably haven’t opened commodity account. Can u send an email to [email protected] with ur client id.
1] Can we have two open trades(one short and one long) of same stock at a time?
2] how can i get margin in intraday? Is there any separate account for margin trading?
3] how much margin we can get and can we get more than one margin at same time? 4] is there extra charges for margin trades?
1. No
2. When you are placing an order, use product type as MIS .you automatically get margin, but all MIS orders get squared off at 3.20pm
3. All intraday margin is provided until 3.20pm. Yes you can trade on multiple stocks with margin. Check this on how much leverage we provide: https://zerodha.com/margin-calculator/Equity/
4. No
hi,
is it possibl to put SL and Target Price together in one order ,so that if SL triggered, target price gets cancelled too.
You need to use Bracket orders, check this.
Hi
I would like to know where can i fund the cost price of share traded ( cost buy price = (Buy price + Brokerage + other fee)/ qty) through Zerodha?
I used to trade in hdfc sec and one can generate report (Say for 15 days interval) of trade details from their online trading platform. An excel sheet will be generated with all details of individual share (qty, buy/sell price, brokerage and total amount deducted/ credited). So it would be easy for me to calculate a single share cost price.
I have a habit of entering all my trade details in moneycontrol.com and monitor from that. So i would be needing an easy solution to calculate the cost price of shares traded through zerodha?
It is practically impossible to read individual trade details and calculate using contract note. Also i do not see any option available in back office to retrieve this. Back office only gives you qty + actual price. It doesn’t give brokerage, other fee or cost price.
Can someone help where can i find the cost price in zerodha? Or if anyone has any kind of excel sheet which would give Zerodha pricing details if I enter qty n buy price.
I believe I may not be the only one who would need to know the cost price in order to better calculate the returns.
sir ur service become worst. we can’t able to open mobile trading account during trading hours. on 8/12/2014 mobile trading account not opened. I ve opened 20 account in ur brokerage. ur service become worst, bad. Atleast provide basic. Trading platform s basic. please, please, please provide it.

Hi Nithin,
How to close a tradingqna.com account?
If you let me know the email, we can deactivate it.
Hai, I just want to know that if I have stock A in my portfolio and i sell that stock. Can I buy back the same stock on the same day without waiting for T2 settlement having considering that I have limited funds.
If you have stock A in your portfolio and sell it today and then buy back before the end of the day, it is considered as an intraday trade. So yes you can do this, and any profit or loss from that intraday trade is credited/debited to you. You will continue holding Stock A in your demat after this.
Hi Nitin, I have a question regarding intraday short.
Suppose I have 100 shares of a company xxx (as CNC)which I bought on monday.
Then on tuesday I sold the 100 shares of company xxx (as CNC)
so if again buy 100 shares(as CNC) of company xxx will it be considered sell/buy intraday ?
another question is if on tuesday I sold the 100 shares of company xxx (as MIS)
and if again buy 100 shares(CNC) of company xxx will it be considered sell/buy intraday ?
another question is if on tuesday I sold the 100 shares of company xxx (as MIS)
can I convert this short to CNC ,as I am already having 100 shares of company xxx bought a day before.
1. Yes will be considered intraday
2. No, 100 MIS will get squared off at 3.20pm and the remaining 100 shares will get added to your earlier 100
3. Yes you can.
Hi Nitin,
But when I called customer care today, the executive told me that if I bought on moday sold on tuesday and again bought on tuesday only then what I sold will be settled against monday bought shares and tuesday bought will be carry forwarded as delivery.
The executive has given your wrong info, can you let me know the name of the person you spoke to?
how much time taken to show the f&o details in g,mail,com and also for pay out
Contract notes are sent to your email by 7pm daily, payout hits your bank account by next day afternoon (if your bank is HDFC, then same night).
Why Zerodha mobile app is not available on playstore where others are….?
Yep, should be available soon.
Dear Sir, The nifty fut is need the margin of Rs.30000+ as of now like trading at nifty fut 7700.
any possibility is there to trade nifty fut to less margin of Rs.10000-Rs15000 so that i can buy some more lots.
If you are trading for intraday, use the product type as MIS while placing orders and you will need only 40% of this margin, but this is allowed only for intraday. If you want even more leverage, use cover orders or bracket orders.
I have some difficulty in placing 2L orders as spread order.
When I place a Bull spread order like buying 7650 call option and selling 7700 call option of June expiry at market rate as a spread order duly selecting “2L” order from the drop down option the the spread order window, the order is not accepted stating that I have to change the expiry date to the different one than the first entry.
Then I had to order it under Basket Order entry. Please let me know why the spread order entry is not being accepted and also how to square up this position.
Will check the spread order, to square off the position you can use the basket order itself with opposite orders or else just square off individually using the order/admin position window.
On 17th June 2014 I had placed a bracket order for 500 Nifty 7550 June Call option which was executed at 78.70 (Order No.2014061701727271). I had placed Target for 10 points and Stop Loss 5 points. The trailing stop was placed at 20 ticks (1 point). The nifty went from 78.70 to 80 and beyond, came down and hit my stop loss trigger. My question is when trailing stop loss is there which is 20 ticks (1 point), my order should have triggered at 79.70 or higher as it moved higher from the entry and the trailing SL was 20 ticks (1 point).
Please clarify and if I am wrong, kindly let me know where I am wrong.
Let me get this correct, Bought at 78.7 SL 5 points, so initial SL placed at 73.7 and target 10 points so target at 79.7. Trailing SL : 1 point
When price moved from 78.7 to 79.7 (1 point, which is your trail), new SL will be 5 points below 79.7 which is 74.7. Now if the price comes down, the SL will get executed at 74.7 instead of the earlier 73.7.
Remember that it is trailing SL, it will always be x number of points/ticks behind the market price. Hopefully clarifies.
Suppose lets say for trading intraday 1 lot of nifty futures zerodha is wanting rs 11500 Margin . And lets say I deposit rs 12,000 and lot size of nifty future is 50 and i open a market buy position and at 7000. so if the market falls below 6990 which will make my capital go below the required margin will my trade get automatically squared off ?
Jason, your trades get squared off if you have higher losses on your account, not if you lose 10 points on an intraday trade. The way margins work is if you’re required to have 12000 to enter a position, you can enter only if you have that amount. Once in the position, you can ride it until you start losing much more of your capital, maybe 20-30% – at this level, our RMS desk will intervene and square off your position if it is risky. So for example, if you entered this position because you had the exact amount of Rs. 12000, then you book a loss of Rs. 1000 on the trade… after this, you can’t re-enter the trade because you don’t have sufficient margin. Please read our Policies and Procedures page to get more info.
Hi Nithin,
I have one question based on the below scenario for intraday trading
Lets say in a live market, Yes Bank is trading @ 448 now, But I want to buy only above 451. How Can I place a buy order in my Nest terminal when the price is at 448 but it will get triggered only at or above 451?
Yesterday I accidently stumbled while trading in MCX, but not checked in cash market. I am not sure it its the correct way?
I.e. To achieve the above scenario what if I place the below order
Buy Order
Order Type = SL-M
Prod Type = MIS
Trigger price = 451
Later in the day I can sell as
Sell Order
Order Type = Limit
Prod Type = MIS
Price = 454
Thanks,
Mahesh
Yep, correct way, check this post on Stoploss.
Thanks Nithin for a quick reply and confirming the same 🙂
Regards,
Mahesh
Is it possible to see OI data on Zerodha Intraday Chart same like we see volume data?. If not is there any way to put OI data on the chart ?
No Faisal, the OI data is not really something that can be put as a chart.
what is margin required for cover order ??
Is there any support for windows mobile platform?
For now you will have to use Z5, our html5 platform.
Hi Kamath, i am Unable to install kite app in Android mobile vs6.0. I have already spoken to customer service. But issue not yet resolved.

Hi,

hi this is saravanan..when are you going to upgrade latest mobile app in zerodha..for placing order its take some time (buy and sell) in that cause i am missing my target value(as for share concerned timing is more important) even though when i am using 3g or wifi and also seems to be like entering folder after folder in mobile app and this takes some time for modifying or cancel..Thanking you..
Hello- I am a new Trader in Nifty Index. I was going through all the helpful tips & query answers you have provided. I just want to know is there any link i can follow to see the historical OI trends on any Nifty Call/PUT options ? Thanks Again.
George, can’t really think of any website which gives you historical OI, you can try asking it here : http://tradingqna.com/ , someone on the community might be knowing this.
Cheers,
Happy Ugadi to all the Zeordha traders!,

Hi Nithin Sir,
I use Kite for trading. It’s a wonderful app I ever used. Very user friendly application. Sir please reply my query. Can I place one buy cover order and another sell cover order in the same script. I just wanted to protect my capital when things go against me. E.g. I executed Cover Order sell in crude at 3652, after that can I place Cover order buy in crude at 3635? Both the orders must be active. Please advice.
Yes you can place both the orders. But there is no point doing this as one order will negate the other order in terms of your net position. Instead of placing an opposite order, you rather just exit the position. Cover orders anyways give you the protection of having a SL. Check this for cover orders.
how to change stoploss prise
Ravi, Check this blog: http://zerodha.com/z-connect/tradezerodha/zerodha-trader-software-version/stop-loss-orders-limit-market
sir can we have option for setting up target in cover order position in mcx.If sl is already placed why cannot we also put target and if it get achieved sl order would be automatically cancelled.
Cover order with target order becomes a Bracket order which currently isn’t available for MCX.
Does zerodha give leverage for those type of stock which start with .05 paise like kss, uttam value etc…if yes how much leverage will be provided ?

How to register ourselves as star trader ?
send an email to [email protected] with your client ID and profitability details.
1) rather than trading multiple lots of the same script I prefer trading single lots of multiple scripts. It is equivalent to paying huge brokerage that I would have paid on any other broker platform.
Suggestion: if Zerodha could start monthly plan for unlimited trading say 999 Rs per month etc. It could be even 2000 Rs per month but plz do think in this direction.
2) pi link to excel doesn’t seem to work. Can we have a fix on that.
Thanks.. And yes u r doing a great job Nithin!
1. hmm.. no plans on unlimited plans. The business has to earn for it to be sustainable.
2. Can u send an email to [email protected], seems to be working for me.
Cheers,

We do have an online account opening process available, however, some amount of physical paperwork is unavoidable since the PoA for demat account and ECN declaration for commodity account cannot be e-signed as per regulations.

Can you please answer this
I have 100 stocks of pc jewellers since 10 days, which i bought at 56.25 rs. When it start going down from 98, I sell those stock at 92 rs. It goes into position tab where profit and loss is fluctuating with almost 1200rs profit because share went down more. So if i buy this share back will i get the profit of 1200 rs. What price it buyback the stocks again old price or current
Or for getting this profit i need to convert it into MIS. and what if i convert cnc position into mis. Thus it will get square of automatically.
I get confused because same thing i did in tata motor stock where i buyback the stocks at higher price and i face loss of 264.
Please explain with example if possible

Mr. Kamath,
I had horrible experience since beginning with your company and will be cancelling my account soon. I had a plan to get more business for you but considering the experience I had, I have decided I will not refer anyone. I understand my investment amount was less but I work for American Express and we have a lot of employees and I also have few who had a plan to open account and start investing but you missed big fish. Nobody bother to help in your company. Nobody. Goodbyes
Hey Amit, sorry for any inconvenience caused. I am having this checked.
why don’t you offer cover oder with the option to fix target price? design your app in such way that either the stop loss will be triggered or it will hit the target price by auto cancelling contrary orders.
Dear sir,
your kite android application is awesome but we want something more
that whenever any order get executed , we must get notification
in our mobile notification bar but currently it just notify us when we open kite application
Working on this, but will take some time.
Hi Nithin,
I had referred 3 of my known ones to open account with Zerodha. However, none of them have received any call from Zerodha representative. On writing this concern to Zsupport, I was told to provide the contact numbers of referrals so that your team can contact them. Is this the way Zerodha Works? Do we need to follow up with Zerodha members to call our referrals to open account?
Please take some strict action against.
Will have this checked.

Hi Nitin,
I hope you will read this comment.
I have a query.
Let’s say i have 5k in my account.I did trading and got a profit of 1k.So now my total account value is 6k.
Now i did another trade on the same day and i got a loss of -1k but i didn’t clear the trade.I carry forwarded it for the next day.So it means next day i will have 6k in my account and one open trade with -1k.
But why at zerodha for next day i still have 5k in my account for next day and the same trade with -1k.
Where is my profit of 1k went?
If i didn’t sell the losing trade then why are you making my profit for the day zero and again next day i am taking the trade in loss.
You can only make the P/L zero if both trades has been cleared on the same day.
Let’s say if i carry forward the trade and don’t have any profit next day and still have the same -1k loss then my account value will become 4k but if i had cleared it on the previous day my account value would have been 5k.
Why i am getting loss of -2k instead of -1k.
Why that profit is not being added for that day.
I will only have that loss of -1k on the day i will clear that trade not on the day i bought.
Can you please clarify this?
Hey Amar,
This is an account specific query and we would need more context about your account and the instruments you have traded. Could you please raise a ticket on our support portal explaining where have you identified this discrepancy trading what instrument? Also, note that you can verify the debits and credits in your account using the contract notes you would have received at the end of each trading day. We request you to verify this before raising the ticket.
Hi Nitin,
I just want to say can you please stop this mock trading on saturday.It’s not useful at all.People come here and buy and sell blindly .There is no learning here.If you want mock trading or paper trading you can make another website where people can learn everyday but not on kite.
New traders like me wants to sit and check previous days price actions to learn but here we see mock trading is going on which is no help at all.
In hope you will consider this request and stop this.
Thanks
Mock trading is conducted by the exchanges. This is a window for us to test our systems.

Hi Nithin
appreciating you and your team for providing the best trading platform
Can u do some changes in kite charting window,while placing order there should be quick buy or sell button with closest bid/offer price update just like your pi interface, also when order executed that price (blue for buy and red for sell) should be flashed on chart (like sticky notes),also can you change kite popup order window for future contract asking for number of lots rather than quantity, hope that will make kite more handy in my opinion
may be I am wrong
Thank you for your reply
Thank you for your words of appreciation 🙂 Currently the tech team is currently focusing on few other areas of improvements for Kite. I’ll update them about your feature request.
