Pre-market/Post-market/After-market Orders

November 27, 2012

Traders,

1. Pre-market Orders:

NSE started the concept of pre-open session a few months back to minimize the volatility of securities during the market opening every day. Between 9:00 AM to 9:15 AM is when the pre-market session is conducted on NSE. During the pre-market session for the first 8 minutes (between 9:00 AM and 9:08 AM) orders are collected, modified or cancelled. You can place limit orders/market orders. After 9.08 AM to 9.15 AM no new orders can be placed, orders placed are matched and trades confirmed. So technically you can place orders only for the first 8 minutes and only on equity segment. More on Pre-market orders on this link.

2. Post-market Orders:

Similar to pre-market orders, post-market orders are allowed only for equity trading. The post-market session or closing session is open from 3:40 PM to 4:00 PM. During this session, people can place buy/sell orders in equity (delivery segment using the CNC product code) at the market price, but do note that even if you place a market order it will be placed on the exchange at the closing price. So for example, if the closing price of Reliance at 3:30 PM is Rs. 800, between 3:40 PM and 4:00 PM, you can place market orders to buy/sell Reliance at market price (will be taken at Rs. 800). Post-market session is not very active and you can look at the movement of stocks by opening the marketwatch window from 3:40 PM to 4:00 PM.

3. After-market Orders (AMO):

This facility is available on Zerodha for people who can’t actively track the markets from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM. You can place orders any time from 3:45 PM to 8:57 AM for NSE  & 3:45 to 8:59 AM for BSE (until just before the pre-opening session) for the equity segment and up to 9:10 AM for F&O. So you could plan your trades and place your orders before the market opens. After-market orders can be placed on all the exchange segments. Please note that if you place any after-market order between 9:15 AM and 3:45 PM, they will be rejected. AMO is allowed only between 3:45 PM and 8:59 AM for equity and up to 9:10 AM for F&O. For currency derivatives, AMO is allowed from 3.45 PM the previous day to 8:59 AM only.

After-market orders are also allowed for commodity trading. After-market orders for commodity can be placed anytime during the day, orders will be sent to the exchange at 9:00 AM (MCX opening). So if you place an after market order at 8:59 it will get sent today and if you place it at 9:01 AM it’ll get sent tomorrow.

To place an AMO, click on the Buy(B) or Sell(S) for the scrip, click on “More options” at the bottom of the order window and select “AMO”. You can look at the image below to understand better:

Placing an AMO

If you are looking at getting the best fill first thing in the morning, placing a market order at opening is a much better idea than using AMO. We typically have thousands of orders as AMO, which are sent together to the exchange at market opening and this might take a few seconds for the orders to be placed. AMO is a feature mainly for the investing community, who can’t get online during market hours.

 

Happy Trading,

Founder & CEO @ Zerodha

    Dear Sir,
    Suppose, I want to order some shares in premarket sessions, then how can I order and what is the time period to execute my order. Also, how can I check that what orders are executed in market and on which rate. So that I can get confirmed that my order will be 100% executed. I hope you understand my point sir

    Hi,

    Can I place intraday buy/sell order for a particular scrip at the pre-trading session? Like around 9:10 AM.

    Thanks.

  4. Kamesh says:

    Hi, I have placed few AMO orders on the previous day for the next day but when I checked them just before the market opens, the orders were in cancelled status. Not sure what was the issue. Can anyone please tell me if you faced the similar issue and what could be the reason for cancel?

  5. Kaustubh Kadu says:

    What if market open gapup or gapdown then what will happen to AMO

    • Shubham says:

      Hey Kaustubh, it depends on the type of order you have placed. A market order will execute at the best available price in the market. While if you have placed a limit order, then it’ll only execute at the price specified or a better price. You can learn more on how the market and limit orders work here.

  6. Sharanya says:

    I have 2000Rs in my Zeroda kite wallet, I want to place a bid for 4 different stocks, each worth 2000rs, one of it gets executed on next day market hours right? which ever bid is less, that will get executed and stocks order gets placed. please clarify as I am new

    • Shruthi R says:

      Hey Sharanya, could you please create a ticket at support.zerodha.com and elaborate your query clearly? If you are placing an order for 4 different stocks you will have to maintain sufficient funds for its execution in your Kite wallet.

  7. Ramashankar Singh Kushwaha says:

    Thanks

  8. Jagadeesha NArve says:

    Today when the market opened at 9.15 I found JSW steel was bought at 750 against 760.The stock completelty went down and I had serious loss. How it was purchased at 750.ANy body can tell?. What was the mistake
    ?

    • Shubham says:

      Hey Jagadeesha, could you please create a ticket at support.zerodha.com, so we can have this checked and clarified for you?

  9. Vignesh says:

    How Can a After market order can be repeated automatically daily?, because stocks trading in low volume, the order was cancelled by the Exchange in the End of Trading Session

    • Shubham says:

      Hey Vignesh, the order cannot be repeated automatically daily. You’ll have to manually place the orders again.

  10. Sudarshan says:

    Hi @nitin kamat the pre order link is unavailable, please update it thanks

  11. GRV says:

    Which order will execute first if I make an AMO order for sale between 5 PM and 8 AM on January 17, 2022, and another Regular order at 9:01 AM on January 18, 2022?

    • Shubham says:

      Hey, order execution depends on the price specified by you can market factors at the time. Using AMO or placing an order manually at 9 AM won’t make much difference.

  12. Alpesh Virpara says:

    can i place stop loss market(SLM) order on IPO between 9:45 to 10:00 AM on listing day to be executed after 10:00 AM?? or i must have been place after 10:00 AM??

    • Shubham says:

      Hey Alpesh, you will not be able to place Stoploss orders before trading starts at 10 AM. You can however place a GTT order anytime you wish to. You can learn more about GTT orders here.

  25. Kaushik Roy says:

    My sell order has been triggered by GTT and it was rejected for authorization through CDSL. However, I have authorised later after market has closed. This happened today (29.04.21). So, how can I sell this now. Under Holding Tab, it is showing as triggered but it has not been executed yet. I am a new user. Please help me.

    • Matti says:

      Hey Kaushik, we send an alert as soon as the GTT is triggered and failed because of lack of CDSL auth so that you can place a fresh order during market hours. For now, you can place a fresh order and authorise the sale.

  26. Manish Gurnaney says:

  35. roy says:

    What time does Zerodha AMO for Coffee Day open on Saturday in NSE and BSE ?

  36. saheen says:

    Can we place more than one amo order for a stock? For example if stock price is 100 and i’m placing amo of 102 and another one for 105 just in case the first one doesn’t get executed.

  37. Sadik Sagar says:

    Future order place with AMO, but disabled the the stop loss field .. currently trances are in pending since not opened the market yet .. how can I set the stop loss for future trade while it’s allowed me to complete with leverage…

  38. SP says:

    Hey… I place an AMO for BALAXI yesterday. The shares were bought this morning at Rs.134.75. But guess what the shares never went to 134.75. How did you purchase the shares at a price that it did not go to?

  39. Sushil Takmoge says:

    How can I buy/sell shares at market opening price?

  40. Rahul says:

    I am trying to buy upper circuit share since one month from zerodha online account.but not even a single order is executed.I tried different timing and different qty but same result.
    Than someone suggested to try MARWADI broker Ltd they have good result for upper circuit shares.
    so place same order at same time with same quantity with Zerodha and Marwadi both.It was unbelievable that my Marwadi order is executed and Zerodha didn’t.
    Can you plz explain this? Looks like something fishy in zerodha.
    I have all the document proving this both transaction just in case if you need it.

    • Matti says:

      Rahul, if the share is in upper circuit, you getting execution is very unlikely. If someone is able to guarantee execution, that seems fishy. 🙂

  41. Rasik Mangla says:

    The last paragraph is pretty conflicting to what one finds on the internet, please clarify –
    For someone who is stuck with a share with lower circuit and wants to exit, what would be the best option

    1.) Placing a market order AMO at 3:45 pm. ( Popular opinion)
    2.) Placing a Limit order AMO at the lower circuit at 3:45 pm.
    3.) Just placing an AMO order anywhere between 3:45 pm to 8:57 am as time doesn’t matter.
    4.) Placing a Market order at 9:00 Am (ASAP) (As suggested by the above article)

  42. Harsh Rao says:

    I have a genuine query regarding placing an order. If I place an order in AMO and that does not gets executed and due to upper circuit remains in pending order list till closing hours. Meanwhile, during market hours, to increase the chances of getting stocks, I make a new order. Now the question is – will this new order be standing in last of order book of upper circuit price ?
    Because if this new order stands last in order book, then there are close to zero chances of my order to be executed.

  43. Sateesh Reddy says:

  47. Kanika says:

    I had placed an order at 15:19 hrs today but it didn’t get approved, however, the amount was deducted from my funds. I canceled the order and placed it again at 15:57 hrs. under post-market orders. I need to understand that if my order will be approved at the same rate I had placed the order or it will be approved at the price at the time of opening tomorrow. Please guide.

  48. Trilok says:

    Can we place AMO for Options buying/Selling.
    If yes for example if I place options AMO at 10000 & previous day close at 10000. Now what if market opens at 10100?
    Will it buy at 10100?

  49. praveen says:

  55. Santosh Jadhav says:

    Why I have been charged brokerage for CNC Orders??? Can you please explain what does this mean “where you have partially squared off your CNC position before the end of the trading day”

  56. Prince Shah says:

    Hi,

    Suppose today, i have bought 10 stocks of Reliance @ 1000 Rs and i have put it on hold for tomorrow.
    But i want to set the limit of those 10 stocks to 1100 Rs for sell, after the stock market ends at 3.30pm.
    So can i set it with right click and sell under AMO option?. Or will it trigger and set a fresh new Sell of 10 stocks @ 1100 Rs ?

    • Matti says:

      You can place an AMO. If you want to hold it for more than one day, you can also place a GTT order. GTT orders are explained here.

      • Naveen says:

        If already set, will GTT trigger in AMO duration? or a dedicated AMO order needs to be placed for after-market timings?

  57. RelishThisPerk says:

    Hi,

    If I buy a share in post market sessions at around 3:45
    since only delivery orders are placed at the closing price, means I will for sure get the stock on T+2 day
    and hence Can I safely sell it on T1 & T2 day(before the actual delivery),
    knowing that it will never be short sold as it will only be a delivery order.

    Is my understanding correct , or dere is special preferences with few kind of direct members of the exchange or something similar.

    • Matti says:

      This is true. However, if the seller doesn’t deliver the shares for any reason, it could still be short delivered to you.

      • RelishThisPerk says:

        what will be the scenario when seller will not deliver, since it will not be a short but a delivery sale which is a long position ,
        if its not delivered due to NDSL not working or technical error, i don’t think it will go for auction in that case

        second scenario can be he sold me on 1 jan and i sold on jan 2 , but jan 3 was holiday and we both might have to settle the sale on same day after holiday on same date., which is the T2 date for me and the person who sold me one day before will be same

        but in that also i will get mine from him
        and and give that to the person whom i sold it to.
        as he sold me first i think first i will get from him and it will be credited
        and then mine will be debited

        • Matti says:

          T+2 is always 2 working days from date of sale/purchase. So in your example, first settlement happens on Jan 4 and the second on Jan 5. Also, technical error are something the exchange will not take into account. If you have sold a share you are expected to deliver it.

          • RelishThisPerk says:

            Hi,

            So that means
            if I buy a stock between 3:40-4PM
            it will be not be a short sale as short selling is not allowed during that period
            and since it will not be a short sale, it will be delivered for sure
            and since it will be delivered for sure, i can confidently sell that stock on the T1 or t2 day

            is my understanding correct ?

  58. Arjun says:

    If i place a AMO at Market price instead of limit, will it clear as soon as market opens ?

  59. Santhiratan says:

    thanks Matti for the helpful response. As per the SEBI Document, stock market does not accept Market orders for new ipo releases in premarket sessions. but in one of the tradingqna posts Nitin mentioned that we can place Market orders for this scenario. Is zerodha doing anything special in the matching process?

  60. SANTHIRATAN R MANDYAM says:

    Hi Matti, Thank you for your response. Can I place multiple market orders in smaller quantities at 9 AM pre-market time with few seconds in between orders?

  61. Santhiratan says:

    Did not get answer on Zerodha’s tradingqna, nobody is answering phone at 080-49132020. I am new to Trading and Zerodha. I am planning to buy few thousand SBI Card shares as an investment. I am looking to buy at PreOpen price or at the price of first few ticks on Mar-16. I know this is a large quantity, What options(type of order) do I need to choose through kite and When should I put in the order to satisfy my need? Since this is a big order, I dont want it to be rejected or partially filled. Is it safe to place the order through phone? The sales rep told me to place order online ratherthan through phone.

    • Matti says:

      The best bet is to place a market order on Kite at 9 AM on the 16th. If you aren’t sure of being able to place the order at exactly 9, you can place an AMO. However, either way, execution is entirely dependent on the availability of sellers on the market.

  62. Raju Patel says:

    Today I have entered After market order for 10500 PUT at price 30. Order placed successfully but when i checked status of it after market open around 9.30 my order got rejected. Due to which i suffered loss of 4500.

    Can you please confirm why my order get rejected on opening of market.

    • Matti says:

      Looking at the 10500 PE, I can see that your order was outside or circuit limits and that’s why it was rejected.

  63. Parveen says:

    Hi Team,

    I have placed AMO BUY on Thursday(20/02), but Friday is NSE holiday(21/02). So, do i need to cancel them or they will be approved on the next NSE open day likely on Monday(24/02). Please suggest.

    Thanks,
    Parveen

  64. Virendra says:

    If I place an AMO order for an Option to buy at a value of 100 or less. And if in the opening 5 Min, the price is between 80-95, will Option be purchased for my order or not?

    Please inform me how to place an AMO order for any value and lesser than that value in case of buying, or any value and higher than that in case of selling.

    • Gaurav says:

      Hey Virendra,
      in the scenario you’ve provided, the order will go through as a market order as the price is higher than the current market price.
      You could use Stoploss order to buy higher, learn here how SL orders work.

  65. Rahul S. says:

    Hi,

    I want to exploit the Gap-up, if it happens, in Commodity futures Pre-open trading, i.e. before 9:00am

    I want to purchase the Commodity futures at previous days’ close & sell it later during Market hours.

    Is it possible to purchase at previous days’ close ? If yes, how ?

    I understand that Market order will be required in such a scenario.

    Please inform what would be the best tool for this type of situation – “Regular” order , “Cover order” or “After Market Order” ?

    Also, can I use MIS for more Leverage – or I have to do with NRML only ?

  66. Jayakumar says:

    i would like to cancel an amo order placed, for which i am getting an error, NEST gateway closed. Y am i getting the error, how to cancel it before the market opens, as tickets raised will be addressed only next day after market is open which is of no use.

  67. Anil Lokhande says:

    Can I place intraday minilots order in after market order ?

  68. B_Ratapara says:

    If stock is available in demat and goes on Upper Circuit then how can i put Stop loss order incase it go lower again
    Eg. Stock in demat at: 50
    20% UC now at :60 then how to place order at 58?

  69. shankar says:

    Hi,
    I have placed a few orders for which money was deducted. But I could not complete the execution. Fund balance still remains the same. If orders were not executed that means buying didn’t complete. then what happened to the money involved?

  70. Vipul Chaudhari says:

    Hello everyone,
    I want to know what would be the outcome of the following order cases;
    Let’s assume RELIANCE closes at 1200 at end of trading day today.
    Now in after market session I will place the following order;
    BUY ORDER :
    LAST DAY CLOSE – 1200
    ENTRY – 1202 (above close)
    TARGET – 1205
    STOP LOSS – 1197
    Now I want to know what happens in the following 4 cases on the next day open;

    Case 1 – Opens at 1206 (above target)
    Case 2 – Opens at 1203 (above entry and below target)
    Case 3 – Opens at 1201 (below entry)
    Case 4 – Opens at 1197 (below stop loss)
    I would like to know this if AMO order is placed before it gets triggered.

  71. Prasad Deshpande says:

    I placed AOM order for the selected trade last night. The order got rejected. What is the reason. Do you have any idea how much I have lost because of the cancellation of this order ? ZERODHA is sometimes very very confusing guys. What you explain in your KB and what happens in actual scenario is really very bad. I booked this lot on 4.90 that should get executed on market opening as per you have written in KB but guess what now the stock has touched 17 but by order got cancelled. God knows. Total loss. YOu are answerable

  72. DEBABRATA KAR says:

    why my order automatically cancel at 3:22 pm.?
    market timing is 9:15-3:50.

    • Bhuvanesh says:

      Hey Debabrta, we start our auto square-off process around 3.20 PM and all MIS orders are canceled in that time period. The reason being it takes time to cancel orders for all users.

    sir,

    During normal session 3.15 AM to 3.30 pm

    if we have sold off ALL shares of a company at a profit.

    Then….by…….3.30 pm the share prices have crashed….

    and……

    as we feel the share price can still go up next day.

    can we buy those shares in the post trading session from 3.40 pm to 4 pm.

    will it be considered as a fresh cash buying without affecting our earlier sell off during normal session.

    please clarify.

    Does Zerodha allow cash buy in post trading session from 3.40 pm to 4 pm ???

    thanking you

    Tushar Mody

  77. UNNIKRISHNAN K says:

    Hi,If i placed AMO @ 200 for a stock that has been closed @ 198 during the day and in next day if in the pre market session if it jumps and opened at 210,whether my order @ 200 will get executed or not????

  78. Haresh Jambucha says:

    I placed Buy order for pre market session as market-regular order… And i did not get any qty.. After 9.08 this order was automatically converted into limit order… Please tell me why my order was converted?

    • Billy says:

      Hey Haresh Jambucha,

      This happens at the exchange level. Unmatched orders in the pre-open are carried over to the normal session. Market orders are carried over as limit orders at the opening price. If the opening price is not discovered, market orders will be carried over at the previous close price. Check out this presentation from NSE on Pre-open for more.

      • Brokenbull says:

        Pre openorders are only market orders?
        can we place multiple “Limit orders” of small quantities of single or different stocks ?
        basically if sgx nifty futures showing lower open, placing a low bid limit orders! (not market orders!)
        say my Limit orders placed between 9-9.08am nots get filled -will they be carried forward after 9.30am regular trading? or I have to cancel them to realease margin & place fresh orders ?

    • Matti says:

      For now, you can place an SL AMO after markets close. This is valid for 1 day. Longer lived orders are on our list of things to do and will be available in the near future.

    • Faisal says:

      F&O trading opens at 9.15 AM only. The pre-market session is conducted only for the Equity segment.

    The request for Good Till Cancelled (GTC) / Valid Till Cancelled (VTC) orders has been sticking out for about 6 years now. Not having this is a big handicap. As much as I like Zerodha for its simple interface and low trading fees (among other things) I am considering moving to other platforms that provide GTC/VTC.

    Why doesn’t Zerodha have it yet?

  98. Trilok Jain N says:

    So in this case it would sell when it touches 101.9 correct?

  99. Trilok says:

    In this case of example, if I select CNC-SL & wish to sell my shares at 102. What should I give in Price? and Trigger?
    My understanding is I should give 102 in Price. And 101 in Trigger Price, so that it would sell as soon as it reaches Trigger 101 & I would be gaining 1 rs profit ?

    Let me know on this please.

    • Matti says:

      If you want to sell at 102, it’s best to give a trigger of 101.90 and price of 102. So the stock would be sold within this range. If you wish to, you can also specify both trigger and price to be 102.

  100. Trilok says:

    Hello,

    For intraday or AMO, Suppose I have 1 share buyed at 100 Rs & current value of a share is 98.
    I’ll select CNC – LMT to Sell & put PRICE as 102. What will happen?
    Will it sell for 102 or 98. If it waits till it reaches 102, then it is similar to Trigger price is it?

    • Matti says:

      The limit order will stay in the system until the price reaches 102. Only then will it execute. The difference between Limit and SL orders is that limit orders are meant for ‘best-price’ execution. This means, if you try to sell below market price, the order would execute at the current market price as that would be a better sell price. SL orders are used to place stoplosses, so would only execute if the trigger is hit.

    Hello Nithin Kamath

    1. I would like know to if I can place buy orders at Rs 10, Rs 8 and Rs 6 assuming that previous day’s close price is Rs 12 and also I would like to place a stop loss order at Rs 4. I would like to know if this is possible using AMO orders. Similarly can I place AMO sell orders at different price levels and place a AMO stop loss order.
    2. Assuming that previous day’s close price is Rs 12, I would like to place two separate orders, one is CNC limit buy order at Rs 6 and another is MIS limit sell order at Rs 14 and a MIS stop loss order at Rs 16. I would like to know if this is possible.
    3. What happens if the opening price is less than AMO buy order or if opening price is greater than AMO sell order.
    4. Is it possible to know or calculate lower circuit or upper circuit and what happens if AMO order placed happens to be below the lower circuit or above the upper circuit.

    Thank you.

    • Bhuvanesh says:

      1. Yes
      2. Yes
      3. If limit, the order will execute immediately
      4. Orders will be rejected if they are outside the circuit limits.

    Your Q&A terminals are very impressive & quite exhaustive and many thanks for your patience in giving awesome answers to n number of customers.However I also need a small valuable advice on these AMO’s and Pre-market orders session.
    AA)Yesterday(09/02/2018) I have shorted one futures stock on NRML basis and end up with a small loss as per the closing price shown at the end of the day but did not square off.But expecting a huge break-up of the price on this stock on the next trading day and to avoid this huge loss ,can I place SL-M buy order(AMO)or Pre-market order? Or any other better suggestion to prevent this huge loss followed by the expected break-up of price?
    BB)On the other way ,If such a huge break-down of the price occurs on this particular stock on the next trading day contrary to my expectation,ofcourse I will be benefitted with the presesent situation.But by placing the above mentioned SL-M buy order,will it by any chance triggers even in the case of break down also?
    Need your valuable advice at the earliest possible please

    • Matti says:

      Hey Narasimhan,
      A. You can only place and AMO order in this case as derivatives don’t trade pre-market. This SLM AMO order will act as a stoploss that would square off your position if there’s a move adverse to your view of the market.
      B. No, in such case, the order remains open and will wait for the price to rice to the trigger level to be executed.

  137. MD says:

    Hey,
    I placed 3 AMO sell orders (of stocks I already own) today morning around 8.30. Status was “AMO REQ RECEIVED”. Then at 9:00 am following message appears “Due to technical reasons your aftermarket orders (AMO) won’t be placed today. Please place your order once again after markets open.” Now after so many hours the order book still shows status “AMO REQ RECEIVED”. I cannot modify or cancel, nor are they auto cancelled. Also, it shows zero in my holdings, so I cannot even trade for those stocks, what to do now ?? How would they be cancelled? Also, the limit has exceeded for them now so I don’t want to sell for low prices.

    • Matti says:

      If there are buyers available, your order would go through. I’m afraid you’ll have to wait for a buyer. If the stock is hitting lower circuits, this means that the liquidity is quite low and so execution is not guaranteed.

      In the pre-open session, there is no way to guarantee execution, you can only place a market or limit order and wait to see if it goes through.

    When will you guys enable After Market Stoploss order, now AMO can only be placed as a limit order, I am asking this for a very very long time

  161. Abudhar al Hassan says:

    Hi Nithin,

    I had a query related to the Futures & Options segment. If I have an open position in commodity futures, I know I can place a SL order for the same but I want to know whether I can place a limit order as a target for the same open position? I am holding the position overnight. Probably for a few days even. Will the limit order be executed as a target order for the open position I have or will it open a fresh position?
    Would appreciate your help. Thanks.

    ~Abudhar al Hassan.

    • Matti says:

      You can place a Limit order. But if the target executes, make sure you cancel the stoploss order to prevent opening another position.

  162. sameer says:

    why don’t show the total cost of order in your equity order box? If I type the quantity, you do show “Stock price” x “quantity” in the blue header. But there is no value for that multiplication.

    • Matti says:

      We’ve tried to keep the platform as lean as possible. This is something that is quite a straight-forward calculation and was left out in the interest of speed. Will talk to the team and see if it’s possible to display.

  163. Rakesh Raushan says:

    i am new in trading, please suggest if i buy or sell one stock around 20 times in same day, then brokerage charge for total value of one share or charge one by one buy and sale value

    • Matti says:

      Rakesh, the brokerage is charged per order. So if you execute 5 buy orders and 5 sell orders, you’ll be charged for the ten orders, irrespective of whether this was for the same stock or different stocks.

  164. Punci says:

    How can my order can be first order in the market?..This I am asking ’cause few shares with very low volume & very high demand do executed on daily basis. However, though I am placing AMO order, It’s not get executed since I am not the first one to place an order. Is there any method in kite so that probability of my order to be first in the market increases.

  165. Meena Kumari Maheshwari says:

    Sir,

    I have query regarding pre-open market trading.

    At which price, I could place an order?
    If I place order during pre-open session, can I sell on same day(Intra-Day)?

    Regards,
    M.Maheshwari.

    • Matti says:

      At what price you place an order in the pre-market session is your choice, really. You can only place Market or Limit orders though. Yes, you can place intraday exit orders for these positions.

  166. Mahesh says:

    At what price AMO sell order is processed.

    • Matti says:

      If you’ve placed a market order, it is executed at the best available price one the markets open. This need not be the open price you see on the market depth as there are a lot of orders that hit the exchange as soon as markets open. Whenever your order is queued in, it’ll execute at the price available then. For limit and SL orders, you define the price. If you’ve defined limit price below whatever the market opens at, it’ll execute at the market price.

  167. dilip kumar says:

    sir
    I want to know if i placed order in equity during PMO , order will be placed on that day limit or can i put a limit of buying and selling then place it

    • Matti says:

      Hey Dilip, you can place a limit order in the pre-market session. If your order is not filled in this session, it is automatically carried forward to the normal trading session.

    Target: To get a buy into the pre-opening market at market price for a particular derivative

    Question: Which one is better? AMO placed at 1615 hrs. OR Placing the same order at 09:01 am?

    Kindly clarify..

    • Matti says:

      Derivatives aren’t traded in the pre-open session. An AMO placed after market would execute at 9:15. You’d have better chances with placing a market order at 9:15 though.

    Confused in AMO

    SBIN Currently at 279 in Kite left side market watch (Actually at 278.70 by NSE), 278.94 in Chart and many different reading in chart by different time frame.. Now i want to place AMO for buy as well as sell. Three different values

    Buy : 279.70
    SLM : 277.25
    Buy Exit at 280.70

    Sell : 277.20
    SLM: 279.80
    Sell Exit : 276.20

    Query
    How many orders will be executed(expect opening price will be between 278-279)

    1. If market goes to 281 uptrend, it will reach 277.70(Buy) then it will reach 277.80(SL for sell)…this means i gain 10 paise profit ?

    after market reverse

    2. What if market goes down and hit SL for buy which is at 277.25 or it will execute my sell order which is at 277.20

    I just want to book trade of previous day(OHLC) calculation on AMO. With stop loss of both the way, either uptrend or downtrend.

    How many AMO order i have to place ?

  198. Amit Mishra says:

    Which order is priority AMO or Pre Market which will get executed first? Is it like AMO will be executed only @9:15 or after as compared to Pre Market which gets executed @ 9:00 to 9:08 AM.

    • All AMO’s are placed at 9 am itself in the premarket. So when market opens, they have the highest priority. If you place a market order at open, it will have lower priority.

    Can AMO orders be cancelled?

    Is AMO applicable to limit losses on outstanding FnO positions.
    If yes, what will be validity of such SL trigger order?
    Thanks!

  202. Anshul says:

    Dear Nitin,

    Many other online trading platforms offer a concept of “Good till Cancel” order. In this case the order stays valid till the date mentioned by the investor. The date can be 365 days from today’s date and works for both buy & sell orders. The order is executed as soon as the price is hit.

    Is there any particular reason this is not present in Zerodha platform? Please include it, this is very useful for long term investors.

    • Venu says:

      Currently the Equity Exchanges don’t support GTC orders, brokers who are providing you this facility are using a very hacky way, something we aren’t comfortable doing. We’ll let you know once this facility is out.

    Hi,

    I have a query on the way orders are squared off in MIS.
    In case the square-off order is not executed at the end of the trading session, how is it handled?
    For example, if a BUY MIS order was executed during the trading session, but the SELL order did not get executed at the end of the day, how are these shares handled?
    Does the user have to bear any additional charges?

    Thanks

    • Venu says:

      The onus of squaring off position vests entirely on you, as a broker we’re only facilitating squaring off of MIS orders. In the eventuality, the position could not be squared off for whatsoever reason, you’ll have to bear the costs that come along with it.

  210. ZQ0852 says:

    Hello sir,
    I have few doubts:
    1) What is the purpose of “disclosed quantity” option in buy/sell window??
    2) At what time the AMO are sent to market at 0900 or after 0915??
    3) Could you please elaborate actually what is cooked up between 0900 and 0915??
    4) What I understood is we can not place BO &CO premarket session, only place simple limit order will I get leverage for the same or not??
    From your point of view How can we make best use of pre-market session??

    SUGGESTION:-In kite it will be useful, if you provide an option to name the market watch instead of numbering them 1,2,3….etc

  214. Rajat Saini says:

    Hello Nithin Sir, I was wondering why a concept of short selling in cash segment more than intraday is totally lacking in India..

    In USA, traders can short stock in cash segment by holding the short position for more than one day by borrowing equity shares from their brokers at some interest charges. Some US brokers who provide this are THINKORSWIM , ETRADE , INTERACTIVE BROKERS etc.

    Is it possible to bring this concept in India?
    That would be awesome if that can happen..

    please reply…

    • Rajat, for this concept to come through, we need to have a vibrant Stock lending and borrowing mechanism. This is not popular in India currently, but SEBI is trying. Check this.

      • Rajat Saini says:

        Thanx for your quick response, sir.
        I checked the link It says that only those stocks can be borrowed and lent which have futures and options. does it mean others stock can not be borrowed and lent?

    If I may! Can you explain me about pre market order? Like if I buy a share b/w 9:00 to 9:08 and it was previously closed at for eg. 800 and opening price starts at 820 so will I book that profit? Or it will start at opening price and can I trade it in MIS or it will be traded in CNC

    • It is explained in detail on the post above. Check the video on AMO here. B/w 9 to 9.07, you can just place orders, no trades will happen. Order matching happens after that.

      • Vikas Sinha says:

        Sir as Harsh Sharma asked earlier my question is same ; that if I place bracket order in the pre market session with a limit price of 801 when a stock previously closed at 800 then if market opens at 820 then can I book that profit or not? if not then what will happen to my buy order. will it be cancelled or not?

        and also if I place a selling Bracket order at 780 during pre market session and market opens at 790 then what what will happen ? will my order be executed at the lower price of 780and I have to take loss of 10 rupees or if when price will reach to 780 then my order is executed? Please explain ..

        • In premarket brackets are not allowed. It will get rejected.

          • Vikas Sinha says:

            but if only limit order is allowed then can I place both stoploss limit order and buy or sell limit order simultaneously in pre market session? if yes then on the above situation i’e” if I place limit order in the pre market session with a limit price of 801 when a stock previously closed at 800 then if market opens at 820 then can I book that profit or not? if not then what will happen to my buy order. will it be cancelled or not?

            and also if I place a selling limit order at 780 during pre market session and market opens at 790 then what what will happen ? will my order be executed at the lower price of 780and I have to take loss of 10 rupees or if when price will reach to 780 then my order is executed? Please explain ..

            • Vikas, SL orders are not possible in premarket. Since exchanges don’t allow setting of triggers in premarket session.

              If you place a limit to sell at 780, the order gets collected and matching can happen at 780 itsef and execute after 9.07am. It won’t wait till 9.15 am for market to open for trade to be executed.

              • Vikas Sinha says:

                Sir one last question.. 🙁
                is margin order is allowed in pre-market session or not? and if place a limit buy order at 20 and market opens at 25 then what will happen to my order, will my order be cancelled ?

    Hello Nithin Kamath

    What happens if AMO limit order (buy order) price is greater than opening market price? For example AMO limit order price is Rs 10 but as soon as the market opens the price is Rs 9 and in this case at what price the order will be valid.

    Thank you.

    • It will become like a market order.

      • Manish says:

        I think it will become Limit order, not market market order. Otherwise what is the use of giving option to select Market or Limit order to trader?

        • Venu says:

          Limit order is when you want to buy lower than market rate or sell higher than market rate.

          If you place a buy limit order at a price higher than market price, it’s as good as placing a market order. The trade will get executed immediately.

Why 11 rps got deducted and what did just happened?

  229. Aditya says:

    AMO before 9:00 am . SL-M order possible or not for buying as you have clearly mentioned above it is possible.
    “Instead of keeping a limit buy at 7670, you can place a SL-m buying order with trigger at 7670. So unless market opens above 7670, it won’t be bought.”

  230. Aditya says:

    ( In Equity Segment) . If I have strong feeling If the Stock Hind Petro touches 521 it will go higher . So If I wait for opening I cannot get execution . If I want to buy the stock in pre market at 521 at 9:00 am , I can use Normal- MIS – SLM- TRIGGER- 521. If price come to 521 It will be executed at 521 or higher .
    1. If it get executed it will be shown in executed orders or not ? If it is not executed it will remain in system we can cancel or modify only after market opening. Since no modification allowed after 9:07.
    2. Can we place SL-M for this order , and Can it will get executed in premarket , if there is too much volatility.
    3. If we can place SL-M for this order , it will be remain in system till it executed at market opening or I cancel it after market opening.
    4. We can place – LIMIT , MARKET , SL-M ORDERS ONLY WE CANNOT PLACE SL ORDERS IN PREMARKET.

  237. Abhishek Belwal says:

    Hi

    I have a question about AMO.

    So, if i place an AMO today at some price to buy a stock, let’s say for Rs. 100, will it be valid for any price fluctuation during that day or will it expire if the stock doesn’t open at Rs.100.

    Regards

  243. Chandrasekaran says:

    Can I place AMO for buying call option on Sunday ? Will be executed on Monday as soon as it opens ? Or can I place it at 9 AM on Monday ?

    • Akshay.A says:

      Hi Chandrasekaran, Since F&O orders can’t be placed during pre-market session, All F&O AMO orders will continue to be placed at 9:15 am as soon as the markets open.

  244. rahul seth says:

    Sir plz clearify me..
    Suppose i have strong feeling that price of this n this stock will rise up.. So shud i place a amo order or an normal order at @9 to get the shares at early as possible. .

  245. VIJAY KUMAR ARORA says:

    nitin ji,
    what is difference between normal margin and mis margin in fno equity

    • Akshay.A says:

      Vijay,
      MIS margins are 40% of the NRML margins.
      Ex: If the NRML margin on a contract is Rs.50,000 in MIS you’ll only require Rs.20,000 to take that position.
      Check here for a more detailed explanation.

  246. VIJAY KUMAR ARORA says:

    hi, i am new entrant right today is my first day with ZERODHA.
    let me know if i places a AMO order and it`s not executed in pre market session , can i cancel it on day trading time ,yes or no

    vijay kumar arora dwarkA NEW DELHI

    • Akshay.A says:

      Vijay,
      Such orders will get cancelled if the order hasn’t been executed.
      You would be able to check the status of such orders in the order book.

      • Prashanth DN says:

        As per what I’ve understood, AMO orders are sent to exchange at 9.15AM and are valid till 3.20PM so they won’t get canceled during pre-market duration. Somebody please correct me if I’m wrong.

  247. PK says:

    Hi Nithin,

    I am a BTST trader in FnO. I buy during mkt hours and place AMO sell orders the same night and wait till next morning 9.08 AM to see if the underlying stock is showing strength and depending on that, I try to modify it. Since the last 3 sessions, some of my orders could be modified, some not. Could kindly clarify as none of the customer care guys could answer my question and I’m sure I’ll face this 2moro morning as well. They even said they ‘ll arrange a call back but never received any which is strange as per the high Zerodha standards.

    Please specify clear timings when I can amend these orders. If I’m not able to modify, should i change the AMO to regular order?

    This is very important. Kindly reply asap. Thanks.

    Pratheesh

    • Hi, all AMO orders can be modified only till 9.10 am. Am checking why our team didn’t inform.

      • PK says:

        Thanks Nithin for your quick reply. Huge fan of your company’s efforts and Pi! Through your system, you have turned retailers like me to become marketers of your products thru word of mouth.

  248. Sasi says:

    Hi Nithin,

    Consider if I want to buy the stock at Rs.100 at 10:30 AM and I want to sell the stock at 11:30 AM with the price at Rs.105. How it can be done? Please help.

  249. Radha Krishna Kavuluru says:

    Hi Nithin,

    On Zerodha Kite Platform the chart for the Stock or futures are displaying time on X-Axis as 14.15 @ 9.15AM in the morning.This is for the first time i am observing.Awaiting your response.

    Regards,
    Radha Krishna

  250. Vaibhav Vatkar says:

    The decision to limit AMOs only to limit orders & at pre-open timings seems just an excuse and an easy way out by zerodha towards their problems.
    Instead, a more pragmatic approach would have been firing AMO Limit orders in pre-open session and market orders when market opens.
    As always customer service, is always recused by zerodha.
    You still haven’t made GTC orders available. One of the discount broker has already made it available.
    Going by your approach towards AMO, seems just empty words towards GTC introduction.

    • Vaibhav, these are not things that can be deployed in a hurry. We are working on sending both market and SL orders for equity at 9.15, but this requires work/time. At the scale we are at, we can’t give a feature that can cause us issues. Exchanges don’t support GTC, it is a layer we have to build(all pending GTC/VTC at end of day has to be replaced next day morning as AMO. there is no way to keep the order on exchange system). There was a recent big arbitration case where the client has gone to SEBI saying he had placed a VTC order, market gapped down and his order wasn’t executed. He is claiming for the losses. The other guy is a % brokerage guy,he can probably take this risk, we charging 0 can’t.

  251. ankesh kumar says:

    I purchased 50share at market price using AMO, market price was 125 and than when market opened next day it cost me 129.80 even in whole day price never went above 125.5 how come i was charged much higher then price??

  252. jin says:

    everybody saying Today, 25-04-2017, is the last trading day for cairn India. now i have just found 33180 shares are in post market offers side. so tomorrow what will happen to these shares ?.
    thanks in advance.

    • siva says:

      Yes, as per the corporate action in this case it is undergoing scheme of arrangement which results in it’s suspension of trading from tomorrow(26th April) and all shareholders of cairn will receive an interim dividend of Rs 17.7 per share as approved by board of directors of vedanta along with 1 equity share of vedanta and 4 redeemable preference shares of face value of Rs 10 with a coupon of 7.5%. To note cairn is merged with vedanta.

  253. Ravi Podugu says:

    When we do intraday trading during pre market session, which order should we provide?

    Can we provide a bracket order? (limit or market order?)
    Can we provide a cover order? (limit or market order?)

  254. paras says:

    Hello sir,
    If any company is suspended from exchange due to some reason..Is there any possible way to get back of related company shares which borrowed earlier..

    • Venu says:

      Companies are suspended for different reasons, removing them from suspension is the prerogative of the regulators. If they are removed from suspension, they become trade-able again.

    Hello Sir,

    As I fall into the category of – ( This facility is available on Zerodha for people who can’t actively track the markets from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM )

    I would like to request , to Place a BRACKET ORDER for next Day.

    If I am not mistaken Other Brokers do providing this Facility.

    Regards.

  256. paras says:

    hi, many times i place order with zerodha in amo previous day and when i saw in next day pre market open..the time reflect to me is 9.00.08 or 9.00.23 or 9.00.45…Why exactly you don’t trigger to nse/bse server at 9.00.00am…This make lots of difference and miscalculation…Other brokers i found the hit reflection in pre market order with proper timing…9.00.00…Can you guide or give me any suggestion…

    • Venu says:

      The orders are fired at 9am, the Exchanges have a limit on the number of orders they can process each second. They would be a few million requests and the orders get placed chronologically.

  257. Anushka says:

    Hello Sir,

    This is regards with equity which I want to purchase & its order book…I will appreciate your suggestion…There are certain shares where liquidity is very less and traded volume/value at frequency of two to three days time….

    The query is for eg. the closing price of a share is 109…There are two buy quantities Qty 200 @ Price 104 & other Qty 50 @ price 105…and one sell quantity 50 @ 120…

    a)How to ensure a buy and match the order in such a way that I get the delivery of shares in AMO/pre opening session or during market hours at price of Rs 109 or less?

    b)What to do for a good buy or match order if there is a huge price gap between the buy & sell orders as compared to the closing price or the last traded price?

    c)Why at times it happens that there are no/few sellers but the closing price moves upwards during the day ?

    • Venu says:

      A broker only provides an execution platform. The Order matching happens at the Exchange end. Only if the bid & ask match, it’ll result in a trade, otherwise, the orders remain pending in the system.

  258. bhupendra says:

    Hello Nitin
    I have set some AMO in past and they are sent to exchange in Premarket. But some of them got cancelled because script is not allowed in premarket. It would be better if zerodha sends only those orders in premarket which are allowed, and those not allowed can be sent at 9:15 AM

  259. Rohit T. S. Netravalkar says:

    I was just wondering if I can quote maximum price at which I want to buy an equity and still get a best deal using AMO when the trades are executed?
    Example say Stock X had last closing value of 100. I want to buy it at lowest possible price going upto 102. Can I setup the trade such that if the stock opens at 98, I get it at 98 not at 102 (maximum limit) at which i have placed the order?

  260. Sudip Kumar Saha says:

    Say, I’ve 100 Stocks of “Company Y” in my Demat Account. I’ve sold them as CnC and as usual they are showing in ” Open Position “.

    Now prices of the stocks have lowered further. Can I buy them back as CNC and sell them as CNC again to make it a intraday deal and book additional profit. For eg :

    1. 100 stocks of Company Y sold from my Demat account as CNC @ 255 and they are showing in Open Position
    2. Price of the stocks lowered to Rs. 250. In open position it’s showing Rs. 500 as Profit.
    3. Now I buy the stocks back again as CNC @ 250 to book the profit of Rs. 500.
    4. Now I sell the stocks again as CNC to make it a intraday trade @ 250 as I don’t want the delivery of the stock in my demat account.

    Is this possible ? Please. reply fast. Thanks.

    Hi,
    After recent changes in AMO, if the target is hit in MIS between 9:00 and 9:15 the trades gets executed and it
    shows in positions immediately. Limit order is better option for buy(long) and sell(short) positions if we know the
    expected price. Correct me if I am wrong.

    Hi Nithin,
    AMO feature helping us to place order after our office hours in the evening, but is is becoming tedious to enter same AMO if it is not triggered during trading time. Currently I am placing 6 to 8 AMO daily, but it will increases to 36 – 40 according to my portfolio. It will be helpful if AMO placed carry forward to next day if it does not get triggered.

    Dear sir,
    I am a new user of zerodha as i got frustrated with some other share broking firm (I don’t want to mention the name).The thing i want to ask is,during the pre market session after 9.08 am can i place the order and will it be forwarded to exchange? My current broking agent allows me to do the same thing,but the order can’t be either modified or cancelled.I want to know,you also offer the same or not?.
    2nd thing i want to ask is,WIth my current broking agent,during the pre session before 9.08 i have got some of my orders got executed.Will the same be possible with your’s?

    • Vaheed, check the explanation and the link I have shared above. The mechanism is exactly the same with all brokers. Do read the NSE link I have shared in the first para of this blogpost.

      • Nitin Kabra says:

        I am trying to put AMO on zerodha but after placing the order , the message is “order placed”
        But soon after than the OrderBooks does not show any pending orders
        sometime it shows but goes away after a minute

        Also if if try to place more than one AMO order then Orderbook does removes all AMO orders

        Is this normal or issues with kites ? Without AMO , kite does not make any sense for me
        please help

        • Hmmm.. shouldn’t happen. Having this checked.

          • Nitin Kabra says:

            All the orders which did not show up in Order book did got submitted to exchange and some got executed.
            Since I could not see placed AMOs in orderbook actually I tried to place the same order again and this cause kites to issue multiple orders.
            This is annoying as not able to see order in Orderbook may lead use to place multiple orders by mistake

            • Nitin, I guess our team is trying to reach you. This shouldn’t happen, we can check it out.

                However I tried to use Mobile App which did not showed the issue
                Then I switched to CHROME brownser which also is working fine

                However IE-11 still has this issue. It seems Clicking Orderbook link does not have any effect as the result are no submitted order shown in browser where has order is still queued in Banckend

                Since Mobile App and CHROME browser works for now I am happy trading @ ZERODHA but do fix issues with IE -11 at your end

All 6 orders will be treated as separate orders then what will be the margin requirements for such kind of AMO order for intraday. Is it possible in nifty stock futures in same scrip.

    I’m not able to place AMO in Kite and not able to login between 1am to 3am to my account to place AMO. I tried to complain this by calling customer support but they dont understand and asked me to keeping trying. I really dont understand what is the issue.

  285. shikha gupta says:

    Hi Zerodha Team,

    I noticed 1 issue in Kite android platform, is that its not placing AMO orders to NSE on opening exactly at same time once the markets opens.

    Example- I placed a AMO for currency derivative before 9.00 AM today, but when I see in the order book it shows the time of 9.00.09 AM means there is a delay in sending the AMO to NSE by 9 seconds, it seems because of this my that order didn’t went thru and stands as open.

    Please see the attached screenshots where the order details is being showed in screenshot & in another it is showing the OHLC details of the USDINR derivative, as per the OHLC it goes below my bid price but my order didn’t got activated.

    I believe that because of this my order didn’t got executed.

    I faced this issue earlier also for equity F&O section….

    Kindly advice on this issue.

    I sent this mail to support team also…. please look into this…

    how we can place premarket orders and post market orders??

  287. Vaman says:

    I cant login at 12.30 am to 2am to place “AMO”. The error message is “MSG Error”, i dont understand what is wrong when you say AMO time is 4pm to 9:14am. And once around 3am i logged into to place AMO but application didnt display my holdings. This is something very weird and irritating.

    • Venu says:

      We run some processes between 1 – 3.30 am during which time you will not be able to access the system. Will check why the holdings weren’t showing. An AMO doesn’t validate the holdings, so you can still go ahead and place the order.

    Dear Sir,

    Two questions

    1. What happens during 3:30 to 3:40? Is there any activity during this period?
    2. Are orders in derivatives segment allowed in post market session i.e. from 3:40 to 4:00?

    Thanks

  290. Amit Nigam says:

    Dear sir,

    During what time can we place AMO after close of trading on Friday or after close of trading on a day before a trading holiday?

    Thank you

  291. Vishal Soni says:

    Do we have stop loss with AMO?
    Suppose I am bullish/bearish on some scrip and when it’s approaching some level I may want buy/sell it with stop loss. Do we have such feature!!

  292. Hariprasad says:

    I purchased shares in BSE, till yesterday it was showing BSE. But today it is showing NSE market. Often it happens in my kite account. Why it happens?

    • Hari, by default we show NSE prices for LTP on holdings page since liquidity is higher. Once in holdings, you can sell on NSE and BSE, based on your convenience. Which exchange you bought it from doesn’t matter.

  293. Jackson says:

    It says 3.30pm and my MIS orders getting cancelled and automatically executed by 3.21pm. Can you increase the time atleast for 5 minutes? Why it is so early when the actual time specified is 3.30pm?

  294. Ajay Bhatia says:

    Sir, I have bought during mkt hours 100 shares under CNC ! I wish to Sell the same on the same day in Post Market Session. Pi not allowing me to sell with the message : “No holding” What is the procedure to square off the trade the same day in Post Market session? Regards.

  295. Aakanksha says:

    Hi Nithin,
    As a person who can’t monitor the market actively between 0915-1530, I want to place order with my limits. But, if there’s no selling at my stated price limit, then the orders get automatically cancelled the moment market closes for the day. Why cant that order be valid till the execution is done at my stated price or till I myself cancel the order. So, in a nutshell, Zerodha has to provide a platform where the validity of the order should extend beyond the DAY, till the point the order is actually executed.
    Hope you will come up with some solution.

  296. sanket babar says:

    Hi, Can I place Intraday AMO. I meant to say, If I place AMO “BUY” on previous day let’s say @11 PM, will it be valid for next day’s Intraday..i.e Can I “SELL” that order in next day in between 9:15 to 3:30 Normal day session?

  297. Nizam says:

    Sorry. That link is working please ignore my earlier post.

    But, that link does not show the high and low prices for the pre market session. Also, those charts are not enlargeable and does not give any sense of anything. Some of them are straight and some of them are curved. If possible, can you please share some info on how to interpret them.

    Thank you.

    • How it works is

      Orders won’t be traded during 9.00 to 9.07 ie during order collection period thus no point of high or low. Order matching period starts immediately after completion of order collection period. Orders are matched at a single (equilibrium) price which will be open price.
      Also we can see the indicative open/equilibrium price and volume on market depth during order collection period, as the name suggests they are only indicative open and volume and are keep on changing based on demand and supply during collection period.

  298. Nizam says:

    Hi Nithin, Not sure whether I can post this question here. But I feel it is relevant. Sorry if it is not. Where can we find the charts for pre market session i.e the trading happened from 9AM to 9:07AM. Is there a way to find the high & low prices for that session for a given stock? I would like to know whether this is possible for NSE stocks. If possible then how? and where?

    Thanks.

    hello sir plz clarify my doubt
    I logged in kite at 8:50am and some stocks already show bid quantity means this no of quantity already placed in order
    then I place order 9 am my order is placed before or after this bid quantity ?

    • Venu says:

      Exchanges conduct pre market session for Equity segment that starts at 9 and goes on till 9.08. You can place Equity orders during such time, not before that. At 8:50, there will be no bid/ask showing

    Hi, Good article, can bracket orders and cover orders be placed after market ? Thanks

  302. Chandrakant says:

    Hi,

    I have bought 50 shares 1 week ago and are currently in my holdings. If I place a CNC sell request using AMO with some limit for those shares, will it get sold from my holdings or will be considered as intraday trade and I have to buy them again the same day to book profit ?

  303. Atheeq says:

    I had placed a market order (CNC type) post market at 3:57 PM today, but “Order Book” is displaying “Order Type” as “L”, whereas i think it should have been displayed as “M”. Let me know if you want me to send a screen of this is a bug, or correct me. Thanks.

    Can we place am MIS order for equity in pre-market session and in AMO?

  305. Jaydev says:

    What is the validity of AMO? I am currently using icicidirect.com and they provide VTC facility so the order can be place for very long time period. i.e. 15 days.
    Is this same with zerodha also?

  306. Thambidurai says:

    Sir, I’m a newbie to stock market. I’m facing problem on placing orders of penny stocks such as Birlacotsyn. Even if I place order previous day evening, the order doesn’t get executed and finally gets expired around 3:30. Is there any specific trick/shortcut to buy/sell penny stocks? Is it due to disclosed quantity, which I never entered for any stock while placing order?

  313. Anjali says:

    Pending CNC equity orders should get cancelled at 15.30Hrs and blocked margin should be released so that buy order could be placed in post-market session.
    I could not place buy order in post-market session as margin was not released.

    • Venu says:

      Will have this checked.

    • CS says:

      Anjali, you can only cancel BSE orders after 3.30; NSE orders get stuck dont know why. I too buy in the post closing session; what I do is use the Cancel All option in Order book at 3.29.55 that is 5 seconds before markets close.

    How to know the closing price of an equity in post-market session in Kite. C in market depth is closing price of previous day. Market watch and limit order window displays last traded price if no transaction is executed in the scrip in post-market session. No rate is displayed in Market depth if no bid exists. Order gets cancelled when I select order type as “market” in post-market session perhaps because it is placed at last traded price if no transaction is executed in the scrip in post-market session. Today’s closing price of an equity is not available in post-market session in kite.

      • Anjali says:

        I am waiting for a favour.

        • Venu says:

          In the post closing session you can only place market orders at the ATP (Average traded price) that is declared by the Exchange which will also be the closing price.
          So in all likeliness, the closing price in the normal market will be equal to the closing price in the Post closing session.

          • Anjali says:

            In post-market session “Market order” displays price as zero. It always gets cancelled. C in market depth is closing price of previous day. Market watch and limit order window in post-market session displays LTP (not ATP) of normal session. No rate is displayed in Market depth if no bid exists.
            Today’s ATP is not available in post-market session in kite.
            How to see ATP ?

    Hi nitin,

    Can i place the order and execution of AMO by 9am of the trading day instead of BTST in future trades.

  320. Anjali says:

    How to know the closing price in post-market session in Kite. Market watch displays last traded price if no transaction is executed in the scrip in post-market session. No rate is displayed in Marketdepth if no bid exists. I think Post-market Order as market order are placed at last traded price if no transaction is executed in the scrip in post-market session and hence cancelled.

    • IF you are looking at equity, closing price shows up as C in the market depth. For F&O only LTP will show. Yes post market order is allowed at only one price, the closing price.

      • Anjali says:

        Yes, I am looking at Equity. I raised query because C in market depth is closing price of previous day. Today’s closing price is not available. Kindly review.

  325. sunita says:

    hello sir
    when we buy shares in cnc ,and after two days when we sell it . why it again shows in positions?
    suppose we buy it in 50 per share and sell it in 52 ,after selling it , if the share increases to 53 then in position it shows in loss with avg cost 52 in the same day . then actually what happenning either i had profit or loss? please answer me.or after that any process is there?

    • It shows in positions only for that particular day. It shows there just in case you decide to buy back again, in which case it will be an intraday trade. Any P&L shown after you sell CNC in positions doesn’t effect you at all.

    Hi,
    I am new and I want to open my 1st account in Zerodha with zero knowledge of ‘share market’. I need training… like: How to trade?.. etc, but not in documented manner. Do you have any good trainer for me? Any support?

  327. Anand says:

    Hi team zerodha,
    As known to all, BSE has put weekly/quarterly/yearly filters on many scrips & some good quality cos have stuck in upper limit. In such upper limit, chances are high of matching in premarket session. So, it will be very helpful if all AMO orders hit exchange at 9:00:01, and if not executed, carry forward at 9:15 market opening automatically. Many brokers are offering this. Zerodha users can’t place order sharply at 9:00:01 and miss many opportunities where other software based systems win. On October 1st, many filters are going to change. Zerodha should speedup if they are working on this already.

    I want to place a order in F&O during 9 to 9:08, which is pre open session, is it possible. Pls update me i am looking for broker who can give this facility..

  336. Anjali says:

    Pi should generate Alert if price is entered beyond a certain percentage of last traded price to prevent mistakes in order price. User Settings should facilitate selection of the percentage. Similarly an alert should be generated if the order value exceeds a pre-defined value to avoid inadvertent orders. User Settings should facilitate selection of the pre-defined value.

  337. Soumya Deep says:

    Hi Nithin,
    I have seen this quite often that the open price mentioned in google finance or even in Zerodha Kite/Pi doesnt match with the open price at 9:15 AM or the open price of the first, 1 min candle. Do you have any idea why is it so?

    For eg, Today RCOM opened at 51.60 INR but we can clearly see that the open at 9:15 is 52.05 INR.

    Thanks in advance

      You can only trade during market hours – 9:15 am – 3:30 pm. You can’t buy shares at 7:00 pm. However if you’ve bought it during the day, you can sell it next day at 9.16 am.

    hi, imagine… open price is 485, i have placed my amo order to sell at 484.50, and in the candle chart of the stock im seeing it from 484rs, will my order by executed ?? pls reply me

    • Raja Rajan says:

      Based on experience it was observed that AMO orders are sent into the trading system at 09;15:40 and by then the candle would have already captured the open price, Thus in your case the chance of your order getting executed is 50:50…

    • No guarantee. All AMO’s are fired to the exchange after market opening, so your order may or may not get executed if the 484 price is hit a fraction of second before your AMO reaches the exchange.

  351. Manowar says:

    I feel that there should be a digital clock at the top in KITE website to ease the customer to sell and buy at exact time. Every time we have to check current time in different website during premarket and closing market time.

  352. Manowar says:

    there is an overlapping time of Pre-market and After market order between 9:00AM to 9:15 AM. Can you please tell me if AMO orders get automatically opened during pre-market session and chances of executon in pre-market session…?/

    Nithin…
    If I place a buy Pre- Market Order (9:00am – 9:08am) of an scrip at market price then…
    Will it get executed at the current price exactly at sharp 9:15:00 am ( So I don’t face slippages)
    OR
    Will it take some seconds to get executed. (Which normally happens when I place a market order at 9:15am , it gets delayed by some seconds and I have to face slippages ?

    hello sir, Is there any way to get benefit of gap up or gap down we see in commodities..
    we generally see 20-30 points gap upnor gap down.
    Using nymex/comex cmp we can predict what price market is gonaa open.
    plz share if u have any method to get benefit of thus phenomenon

  355. Anshul says:

    Sir, I want to know how can we carry forward our orders to next day if it is not executed same day. it is very cumbersome to place same order everyday. is there any way otherwise??

  356. Sandip Marathe says:

    I want to ask clear my doubt about commodity AMOs. suppose markrt closed yest @3100.
    at nymex it went up.
    and if it seems to be jump directly at 3150 at 10:00 AM.
    suppose market opend @3115 and jumped to 3150.
    ie. open prize-3115, cmp 3150(@10.00 am). and low is 3115 i.e open prize.

    so in this case.
    1) If i hv placed buy AMO (SL type) @ 3120, will my order get executed?

    2) If i hv placed buy AMO (market order)
    at3150. will my order get executed and what prize?

    3) If i hv placed AMO( Limit order)@ buy @3120.
    will my order get execute and if yes at what prize??

    plzz answer.

    • Sandip, AMO doesn’t mean the order is placed on the exchanges before market open. All AMO orders placed by our clients is put in a basket and we send it to the exchange at market opening. AMO is as good as you placing an order after market opening. So,
      1. Can’t say, most likely no.
      2. Can’t say. It can be anywhere between 3115 to 3150.
      3. Can’t say. If you place a limit buy order higher than the current price, it as good as market buying order.

  357. Roshan says:

    If I trade after market hour.
    For ex -I want to buy f&O lupin in nse
    Current market prize is 1490
    So if I put a limit 1500
    And due to high volume next day market open at 1505. Will my order get execute @ 9:15 and if my predictions goes wrong and if lupin falls from 1490(current prize) as my limit I had put was 1505 will my order get execute.
    Ty in advance!

    • Venu says:

      Orders at the Exchange get executed on price,time priority. If your order to buy is the highest available bid, then it’ll get executed. If there are other bidders who’ve placed an order at the same price, the order will get traded in order of time priority. There’s no guarantee that placing an order at “x” price will guarantee execution.

Kindly clarify as I am confused why there is trading on Sat. Thank you.

    hi, as i see the stock goes up by 1% or more less before we could enter in that after 9:15 . how could we enter in that.
    does the AMO do the trick and what price will i get the order executed if i place AMO. and if i place order at market price can i get price somewhere between the price after market opening and yesterday’s close.

    plz rply soon…will help me and some of my friends..

    • Naman, AMO or any other orders actually enter the exchange servers only after 9.15 am. So there is no way for anyone to get a price between yesterdays close and todays open.

  362. Khraw says:

    What does stop loss means in AMO buy order? Is it means to minimised lost as in cover order or price to enter the market?
    Please clarify on this as I am confused.

      You can use the SL order to place a SL for your existing position or as an entry order to buy above a certain price or short below a certain price.

    In pre market session how it is possible –

    Buy on market price with SL-M. AND SL should be rs.5 down from execution price. For ex- if buy price 100 then SL -95. If buy price 103 then SL- 98.

    It is possible any how by bracket order, basket order, cover order, algo, pi or Any other way.

If the current price is greater than your limit price, order will remain pending and will be executed as soon as the price falls to Rs. 250 or below. In case the actual price of RIL on the exchange was Rs 248, your order will be executed at the best price offered on the exchange, say Rs 249. Thus you may get an execution below your limit price but in no case will exceed the limit buy price.”
    — I want to know that if limit buy price is not matching with current market price but market price is lower than my Limit Buy Price is it will not be executed at exchange rate (Which may slightly differ but is lower than my limit price)?

    Hello,

    I am following a stock and which is upper circuit from past two days. I am placing AMO at market price but still not able to buy that stock.
    What is the best way to buy these kind of stocks.
    1. AMO orders ? (How AMO orders will be executed)
    2. Pre-market orders between 9 AM to 9.07 AM ? (Whether to go for market price or limit ?)
    3. Market Open orders 9.15 AM ? (Market price orders or UC orders ?)

    Please clarify.

  390. Amit Nanda says:

    I spoke to Zerodha customer care and also read the complete blog above regarding AMO. I am getting contradictory information from the article above and what was told to me by customer care; hence the question here.

    I have a position in Nifty Futures that I would like to square-off at the Open price (at 9:15:00 am) or as close to 9:15:00 as possible. There are 2 options:
    1. Place AMO as Market Order before the market opens
    2. Place a Market Order manually from Pi as soon as the market opens, that is, 9:15:00 am

    I was told by customer care that if I place AMO, the order would be executed exactly at Open price at 9:15:00 without any delay. However this is probably not true based on what is written above and the order would be queued up for execution in the next few seconds. There is a contradiction here. I guess what is mentioned above is correct (it would be queued up and it would take a few seconds to get executed as Market order for AMO orders).

    2 questions:
    1. Which of the above two options have greater probability to execute closer to 9:15:00 am?
    2. For AMO Market Orders, how much time in seconds (a rough range) does it typically take to get executed after 9:15:00 am?

    This is for Nifty Futures of near month, which are always very liquid.

    • 1. Place a market order at the open (not using AMO), greater probability of faster execution.
      2. AMO orders time is not fixed should happen fast. But worst case, it can take upto a minute or more. So if you are worried for the fastest execution, place a market at open.

      Will try to figure out whom u spoke to on our team.

    Thank you, Today at around 7 AM Kite dash board shows Total account value 0, Free cash -5,51,945.29 and Margin used 5,51,168.04 but this appears to be wrong also, All the positions are closed yesterday itself and free cash should be positive and there appears to be some error in the number shown. It appears any error gets rectified before market opening but there would be problem in placing AMO.

    • Venu Madhav says:

      We run some beginning of day processes which is why you may not be seeing right values. Check Q to get an update of your funds & positions. When you are placing an AMO it doesn’t validate whether you have sufficient funds/securities. It only gets validated when the order is sent to the Exchange.

  394. uma says:

    Code is DU0347. I frequently come across this problem. During the morning hours Kite or Pie shows holding position as nil and account value as zero even though I hold positions. Today just now I logged into Kite and the value is shown as zero and position hold as nil. But I am holding long in Nifty Nov futures 675 numbers. Hence, there is hurdle in placing after market hour orders. Suppose if I place any order it gets rejected. Kindly rectify this.

      You can place regular orders for Equity segment only during pre-market session. If you want to place an F&O order, you have to place an AMO order which will be sent to the Exchange at 09:15

    Today (sunday holiday) around 1400 hrs I placed After Market Hours order to buy Nifty Oct 2015, 3 lots. The order books says ‘rejected due to adapter down’. At the start of this blog it is mentioned that AMO can be placed between 6:30 PM to 9.15 AM, which I have failed to note. Whether there is any change in the timings now?

    Further it is mentioned in the top of the blog that “Please note that if you place any after-market order between 9:15 AM and 6:30 PM, they could all be cancelled by 6:30 PM”. A little confusion here. Whether I will be able to cancel any AMO order immediately after placing it?

  405. Davidson says:

    Hi Nithin,

    Thanks for your immediate response. I have clarification on your third and fourth response.

    1. Whether for MIS orders two margin is required. I heard that only for NRML orders you need two margins that is one for Initial transaction and another one for SL-M. Pls. confirm ?
    2. As quoted by you if I choose the SL-M (BUY) as 7670 then after order execution only I can place my Target value and SL-M (SELL) during the Market Hours.

    Actually I do have a challenge to be online during the entire trading hours. So I prefer to place an order before the market opens and gets executed as per my target value or SL. Else let it get square off @ 15:20 hrs. automatically.

    My requirement here is for example the NIFTY LTP is 7650.

    I should buy the NIFTY if it attains 7670 and I have to set a stop loss @ 7640 & Target as 7710.
    The Transaction should execute only if the above condition attains. The system should not buy if the market opens below 7670 or SL-M (SELL) should not trigger @ 7640. If it triggers and if I am not online the risk is unlimited in Options (since I have chosen the Call Option)

    Pls. let me know what is the best mode of order to fulfill my requirement without being online during Market Hours.

    • 1. Yes even for MIS, margin will be required extra if you are placing two separate orders. If you are exiting a position, margin is not required for 1 exit order.
      2. Yes
      What you are asking for is not really possible. You have to wait till ur entry is executed, and then u can place other two orders.

  406. Davidson says:

    Hi,

    I want to have a better clarity on AMO orders and the difference between AMO & Bracket Order.

    Kindly confirm my understanding on AMO orders is correct based on the below example.

    Nifty has closed 7655.05 on 04th Sep 2015. I am Placing an AMO Order with a Target buy price of say 7670, SL-M (sell) as 7640 and Target Sell Price as 7710 on Nifty Future expecting that it would be bullish on 07th Sep 2015. But from the pre market period itself it is bullish and @ 9.15 the market opened at 7650 and going in the downward trend.

    1. Whether my AMO order would be executed or not ?
    2. Whether It would buy @ 7650 and triggers SL-M @ 7640 even though my original buy call was 7670 ?
    3. Whether two margins is required in AMO – MIS orders one for Buy and one for SL-M ?
    4. Whether there is any possibility in AMO or Bracket Order to execute the transaction only if my original initial transaction value is attained. In my current example only if NIFTY is 7670 buy should be triggered

    I found AMO & Bracket Order are one the same and the only difference which I foresee is that in Bracket Order SL & Trailing loss is enabled where as in AMO, SL & SL-M is enabled. Am I right or there is any other difference ?

  407. Hello Nithin,

    My pre-market/after-market are never getting executed in Zerodha? Can you please let me know what should be done to get the matter resolved?

    Regards,
    Ankit

    • Venu Madhav says:

      Hi Ankit,

      A broker only facilitates placing orders. Order matching & execution happens at the Exchange based on price-time priority. There’s nothing that can be done specifically for an order to get executed. If your order ranks up on the price-time priority the Exchange matching engines will match & execute these orders for you.

      • Hey,

        Thanks for confirming.

        Yeah I understand that but my concern is my pre-market order never got executed, Ironically my friend placed the pre-market with Angel at same time with same limit and it gets executed almost every time. Not sure what is the exact reason of this.

        Possible for to investigate the issue as I am really concerned about it??

        Regards,
        Ankit

            It’s really disappointing to know that the similar order placed at same price and at same time with another broker getting executed.

  410. Hello,

    After-market call (in commodity) never got executed. Not sure if I am doing anything wrong. I hope we can place AMO as MIS if placing it same day (e.g: I am placing the 5 lots shorts in crude at 9:45 AM today for today’s market).

    Other than that few queries I am having regarding the AMO in commodity:

    1. What if I place the AMO as market instead of limit? Will the order get executed at the open price? (E.g today crude opened at 2735 and with low of 2707, if I would have placed short order in AMO as market then will it have been executed short at 2735?)

    2. If suppose the order didn’t triggered at market open then will it get executed later on (after opening of market) when that value comes?

    Thanks

    • 1. When the market opens many orders hit the exchanges at same time, so your order will be typically in a queue. There is no way to say which will get executed faster. Yes you can place AMO as market orders. But like I said, no guarantee at what price it will execute.
      2. If it is a limit order, yes it will remain pending and get executed whenever that price arrives.

    Hello Nitin,

    Can we place limit order in MIS for Nifty futures during pre-open session?

    Would like to tell you that objective is to buy/sell Nifty futures at the opening price.

    Regards,
    Ankur

    • Pre-open is only for equity trading. But you can use the AMO orders to place limit MIS orders on Nifty fut. You need to know though that all such orders are sent to the exchange only after market opening. So it is as good as you placing an order at 9.15am. Getting the opening price is like hitting a lottery, very tough as lakhs of orders hit the exchange at the same time.

    plz clear my doubt ,,
    if crude close prie 3050 I place a AMO nextday before market opening at 3060 ,but market open at gap up 3080 is my oder execute or not, or ifit open gep down of 3040 then what happen about my order. execute or not. because all day price open with some difference. plz clear

    • All AMO orders are fired to the market after the market opens. So if it opens at 3080, your order becomes a pending limit order at 3050. If it opens gap down at 3040, your buying order will be like market order(since you have placed a buy at higher price) and will get executed at whatever price below 3050 market opens at.

  415. Mangesh says:

    Hi, If I want to buy exactly at the Open price, which type of order should i place?

    • You have to place a market order when market opens. But there is still no guarantee that it will get executed at open price as your order hits the exchange in a queue.

      • Mangesh says:

        Ok.
        the other way i am thinking is to put an ‘After Market Order (AMO)’ at 6.30pm one day before…
        will that work? coz our order would be the first in queue…

        • No Mangesh, doesn’t work like that. All brokers send there orders at one time at 9.15 every morning to exchange. So the queue at the exchange is a like a lottery.

          • Mangesh says:

            Ohhh…then its a big problem…
            actually i have developed a intraday strategy for options…which is working very well and giving consistent returns…
            but the requirement is to buy ”exactly” at open price…
            Can u please help me and give a solution ?
            eagerly waiting for ur reply

            • No solution as such Mangesh. When orders hit the exchange, they all automatically queue up. High frequency trading systems has better odds of landing up ahead of the queue.

  416. Vijayakumar says:

    Hi Nithin,

    AMO is very useful for traders who are not active during market hours or who are engaged in other activities apart from trading. Here order gets executed (either buy or sell), but how to place our stop loss and target for the same order when we are not before our trading terminal? In this case, how to sort out, either CALL AND TRADE and mention the target and stop loss to Zerodha staff or you have anything that can be done along with after-market orders for stop loss and targets. Thanks in advance.

    • You can place all the three orders at the same time if you have enough margin in the account, entry order, target and SL order. But if your order gets executed in the morning, you can definitely call our call n trade numbers to place SL and target. You can also use our mobile app or our new web app kite.zerodha.com on your mobile browser .

    Hey Zerodha. I am ready to open an account. But I do have a small query.

    If I want to buy a 1000. Shares of a XYZ company at price 5. But the company is trading at 5.50. As I will not be able to watch the market continues as a job holder.
    1. Can I buy 1000 shares of XYZ at 5 by placing which order?
    As whenever the stock comes to 5 my order should be executable.

    2.And if I want to sell same 1000 shares at 6, then which type of order I can execute.

    • 1. Place a limit buying order at Rs 5.
      2. Place a limit selling order at Rs 6.

      But note that these orders have to be placed daily as any pending order at the exchange end of day is removed from the cache.

    • Hanan says:

      You can most definitely place pre and post market orders on the mobile, but after market orders are not enabled by design. When the mobile app was created, it was meant to be used on the go to place any orders if you’re not in front of your computer. For stuff like AMO, the developers presumed that you would use your computer. Although, now most of the people trade only using mobile or tablets – so we’ll have this fixed in the Kite mobile app.

  423. Aman Aggarwal says:

    Hi Nithin,

    Is it possible to ensure that your order placed in AMO reached NSE first compared to all other orders placed by all brokers. I am asking this because when I place order in sharekhan, it reached NSE first while in Zerodha it gets placed later. So, if I want to trade a stock with low liquidity, then there are chances that my order will not get traded in Zerodha but will get traded in sharekhan.

    Please clarify on the time stamping process of NSE.

    • Aman, it is basically luck of draw. Everyone will send orders at same time when market opens. Usually the first 15 to 30 seconds, getting ahead of queue is not really in the brokers hands.

    • Sandeep, that is the risk of shorting illiquid stocks. If it stays at circuit the whole day, it will forcibly get converted into a delivery trade. You will be required to give delivery in two days, failing which it will be treated as short delivery and you will have to pay auction charges. Check this post.

    • I guess the stock is trading around 110, so your sell order got executed. Your limit buy and SL buy is still below the current market price, so it is still pending. You have to either wait till it drops there, or else if you want to square off your shorts anytime you can modify the buy limit to the current market price.

      Best,

    • No Shyam, exchanges will consider that as an algo and not allowed for retail. In our new platform Pi, we have an option for you to code strategies. So it is possible to get an alert at 11.50pm, but someone has to manually still click on buy/sell.

  435. Vinod Kumar says:

    Mr Nithin
    We had been using Sharekhan since 2008. Now I had opened an account for my wife with Zerodha after seeing various posts and comments from people about discount brokerage. But disappointed with terrible performance of the platforms. Web based platforms are slow. Everytime login with login password, Image, two security questions and every trade authentication with trading password is unprecedented.

    Tell me where to see the actual profit made in a trade.
    In Admin positions
    if I buy of 100 shares of xyz at Rs 10. On the same day price moves to 15. Now unrealised profit shown is is Rs 500. Now if the share closes at Rs 15.
    The next day if the share is running at a price of rs 16, the unrealised profit shown is (16-15)*100=100, whereas it actually should be from my actual cost incurred. ie. (16-10)*100=600.

    My wife’s account is yet to get enabled for Pi. I do not know whether Pi got better features as Sharekhan’s Trade Tiger terminal. Sharekhan does not apply any cap of balance in account to give the services of TradeTiger.

    • Vinod, NEST/ZT is a vendor based software which is used by most brokerages in India, and yes definitely not comparable to Trade tiger. That said, with Pi and Kite (our in house software), I think you will see that it will not only match to trade tiger, but it can do a lot more in terms of backtesting, coding, and large amounts of data on the chart.
      Sharekhan has started charging Rs 10,000 for tradetiger which gets adjusted with brokerage. Pi final release will happen in the next two weeks, and we will have another criteria to determine active clients.

    I m new user of Zerodha. I have some of the following daught. Expecting help regarding the same.

    1. Suppose xyz company’s stock has closed at 200. And it opens at 210 on next day. So can I use pre market order to buy stock considering last closing prise.

    2. If I already know that xyz stock.is going to increase by 3%. Then I want to buy it early with minimum prise to make more profit. But when I see at 9.15am , I m getting data of that xyz stock which is already increased by 2 or 3%. Plz tell me what method I need to use for the same.

    3. Consider today is17-2-15. Can I buy xyz stock with its last closing prise of 16-2-15. What method I should use?

    4. Plz tell me the process of short selling using web app Z5. I saw there are two options SL- L, and SL-M what it means. Which one is better.

    5. Can I use credit/margin for short selling.

    Awaiting for your reply soon.

    Thank you…..

    • 1. Yes, you can.
      2. You can use SL-M buying order. So in the above case, you can before hand use AMO orders to place a SL-M (stoploss) buying order with trigger of 210. As soon as the 210 price reaches a market order to buy is sent.
      3. You can place an order with previous closing price on 16/2, but no guarantee that it will get executed.
      4. Check this post for stoploss orders. . For short selling you just have to place a selling order first (similar to how you would buy). To short sell for intraday, use the product type as MIS. These orders will be valid only for intraday. Check this.
      5. Yes, you can, but only till 3.20 pm.

    cai i buy shares using amo and then same shares sell in between market hours without amo..is that possible../?

  438. Sachin says:

    Is there a way by which the order is sent to the exchange(wih exchange order number being generated) sharp at 9am. I have seen this happening with other brokers and we also see a lot of orders placed sharp at 9am. These orders are placed automatically. Can you please guide how to place this type of orders??

  439. IvestorBangalore says:

    I see that NIFTY price starts changing at 9AM itself on Z5. Is this not strange? Expect NIFTY to change the price from the previous CLOSE price only at 9:12AM or so (based on pre-market trade matching).

    WHy is this?

  440. Meenakshi says:

    Hi Sir,

    Could you please explain the following:

    1) When I place an order during market orders, I think it gets executed in the last. I want to know that do all the orders get queued according to the time at which they are placed. I mean are the orders executed on a FIFO basis?
    2) Is there a way to bypass the queue and get our orders executed before other orders.
    3) I feel that small orders are executed faster than bulk orders, say if I place an order for 500 shares, it is executed faster than an order for 30000 shares. Is this true?

    • 1. Yes, all orders are executed FIFO. But when you place market, it gets executed immediately, there is no waiting as such.
      2. No
      3. Yeah, when you place bigger orders, that means you need more buyers/sellers to fill your order. So definitely, bigger the order size, the longer it will take for that to be executed.

  441. RS4432 says:

    Hi Nithin,

    Thanks for take time and replying to my doubt . As you told early that all AMO orders are stored and sent to the exchange at 9.15 AM. At what time Pre-market Orders will sent to exchange. do we have and advantages buying on pre-market order.
    Because i seen at 9:04 only buying queue will be in thousands .
    that queue number will show from AMO or PMO or both .

  442. RS4432 says:

    Hi Nithin,
    I am buying one stock at pre open market only the price will be increase . I will give you example
    ABC GAS stock :18:35 at pre opening only it will increase 0.30 daily it same .after that they wont be any sellers for stock and buyers will be in thousands. in queue .what is best way to buy these stock
    PRE-MARKET or POST-MARKET or AFTER-MARKET ORDERS .
    Thanks in Advance

    • You can place an after market order the previous evening, but stocks like these which are hitting upper circuit first thing every morning, there is no guarantee that it it will be executed. Unless you have sellers, your buy orders won’t get executed.

    Hi Nithin,

    First of all kudos to the enthusiasm with which you are looking after all the comments here, I need to know what should be the best strategy to grab a stock which is speculated to hit upper-circuit as soon as opening. Does queuing up early using the AMO a better strategy, if yes which is better AMO or Pre-market order for this situation.

    Thanks

    • If a stock is going to hit upper circuit at the opening, there is nothing you can actually do other than placing a limit order at the upper circuit price and hope that someone sells it and you get filled. AMO orders doesn’t give any added advantage, they are sent to the exchange after the market opens.

  453. NJ says:

    Hi Nithin/Hanan,
    today I put a buy order for natural gas at 266.5 where as it opened at 264.9 but my order rejected and it shows RMS rule: check freeze quantity for MCX commodity for entity account DN0771. I am attaching a screen shot of the error it shows. May I know what it means?

    My second question is how opening prices of commodities at MCX decided? is it like NSE & BSE or something different.

  454. NJ says:

    Dear Hanan,
    I put only 1 lot on that day. otherwise it would immediately reject the order but it shows pending & just after opening it got rejected.

  455. NJ says:

    Hi Nithin,
    today I saw crude oil in international market falls 4 dollar so I short crude oil in AMO but it reject my order after market opens by showing margin exceeds required although i have 40000 in my account & normal margin required for crude oil is around 24000 as shown in your site. Also I put a price much less than the opening price in limit order. Now please clear me how much margin do we really required to short a trade in AMO. Again if the order exceeds the required margin it should reject it immediately during its placement but it shows pending there & got rejected after the market opens.

    • Hanan says:

      We’ve checked your order report. The reason your order didn’t go through is because you placed an order for 100 lots of crude, not 1 lot. You need to understand that in MCX all commodities are viewed by lots, not weights. If you wish to buy 1 lot of crude, just choose 1 and this will buy you 1BBL of crude.

    • Hanan says:

      AM orders cannot be placed on the mobile platform as it is available only on the Desktop and Web versions. If you would like to place AMO only from your mobile and not your computer, then you must use Z5 to place an AMO.

  460. Francis.A says:

    Can i place an AMO order in Mobile platform ? If yes, step by step procedure please

  461. Option Trader says:

    Thanks for the reply.

    Following above scenario – 3——I put a AMO at 90/-. So if market opens at 100. Will order be executed at 90 Or 100.

    So One Sell Position and then one AMO buy position. After execution all positions are neutralized. Will not be having any open positions.

    Please Clarify.

    • It depends on if you are using SL or SL-M. If you are using a SL with limit, the SL order will get triggered but if your limit is less than 100, the order will become pending.

      If you use SL-M, the order gets triggered and the position will be bought back the best available market price, in this case Rs 100.

      Yes once the AMO is executed, all positions are neutralized.

  462. Option Trader says:

    Hi Nithin,

    1) If I am selling options and squaring it off the same day – intraday – can I use MIS. IF so what would be the margin amout block for selling option.

    2) If I am selling an options and executing a stop loss for the same. If not trigerred today. I carry the selling position tomorrrow…will the stop loss will also get carried tomorrow.

    3) I am selling an option ce at 80. will put stop loss at 90. Stop loss not triggered today. Will carry my selling positon tomorrow. I think stop loss is still at 90. Tomorrow market opens at 100. Will my stop loss get trigerred at 90 or 100?

    Any other best alternative for the above situation – especially question 3…please reply

    • 1. Yes, 40% of the overnight margin(NRML) requirement.
      2. No, all pending orders are removed from the cache by exchange everyday. So you will have to place this order again tomorrow.
      3. No as explained above. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do to cover the overnight risk. The best you can do is place an AMO (after market order) for your stoploss everyday.

  463. Guruprasad says:

    How do I go about buying a stock that I am sure will hit upper circuit on Monday? Can I place an AMO early morning on saturday specifying it as a Market Order? Will it go first in the Q when the market opens on Monday so that I will be able to buy it before it hits the circuit?

    • Catching the first tick in the morning is luck of the draw, there is nothing you can do that can increase the probability. AMO is as good as placing market order at 9.15am on monday.

      • Rafi says:

        Hi Nithin,
        This is exactly my question sometimes back. I understand it’s luck, but since Exchange, Zerodha and everyone else in between is using technology and automated this process, there should be a method in orders getting executed. Is it purely time based? When we place an AMO at 5.30 pm evening, is it placed immediately with the exchange or Zerodha just store and send it at next morning?

        Please try to explain the process so that we can try to place and do something ’bout than just relying on ‘luck.

        • It is purely time based. Exchanges in India accept orders only when the market is open and hence all AMO orders are stored and sent to the exchange at 9.15 AM.

          • Bala says:

            Hi Nithin,

            Suppose I had place AMO order 1 at 3:45 PM on 06-04-2018 (today) and AMO order 2 at 5 AM on 07-04-2018 (next day).

            So in this case which order will be sent to exchange first on next day at market opening 9:15 AM ?

  464. Amateur says:

    Hi,
    I have few doubts in AMO
    1. Suppose I’m buying(AMO) idea at 172 using buy limit and price at 172
    2 I want to sell it when the price goes to 173
    3, If I put sell amo with SL-M and trigger price at 171,
    4 Here the share gets sold only when it reaches 171 or below?
    5 How to sell the share at 173 and above?

    Kindly explain them

    Regards,
    Amatuer

    • Firstly, you will not be able to place a sell order in CNC(delivery trades) unless you have shares already in the demat account. So if this is a fresh trade and for intraday, then you can do it this way.

      AMO buy limit at 172 in MIS
      AMO SL-M with trigger at 171 in MIS
      AMO sell limit at 173 in MIS

      • Haridev Singh says:

        Is it possible to place sl-m order as AMO
        eg. closing price of Axis bank at 562 and with hope of high volatility can I able to place a BUY ORDER at 566 as sl-m and a sell order at 572..now on next day if Axis opens below 560 then what will happens to my AMO order?? please clarify.

  465. You article on pre market order and post market order informative. Over time I create my own Intraday Trading Formula to reap the maximum benefit from my trading. Success rate of trading formula amaze me, I don’t hesitate that. Some time this formula FAIL in volatile market. Hope I will solve it in future.

    Can you suggest me another Intraday trading system? It will help me as well as many like me to earn money from stock market. I will awaited for your next amazing article on stock trading.

  466. Bhanu Arora says:

    Hi Nithin, Please ignore my last message. I think i wrongly assumed the issues you face in implementing Bracket orders in AMO.
    As you mentioned the risk management issue, in my opinion, the users of Bracket orders in AMO should bear the risk of getting their stop losses hit near the market open and they should put these triggers wide enough for illiquid securities.
    Sending an AMO without using a stop loss is a big risk for retail investor, and specially for the people who can not track the market during the day and generally use AMO for trading.

    I hope you understand the issue.

    Regards,

  467. Bhanu Arora says:

    Hi Nithin, Thanks for the prompt reply.

    For 3rd, just a suggestion, you can add this functionality only for stocks to start with. and also provide no leverage for such trades (for ex: client has to keep 100% equity for buy trades and 150% equity for sell trades) as in principle AMO orders are not intra-day orders.

    Regards,

  468. Bhanu Arora says:

    Hello Nithin Sir,

    Can you please answer following questions?

    1. Can AMO be placed between 9.07 AM (after pre mkt session) to 9.15 AM (before normal mkt session) ? if yes, will these orders be sent to exchange at 9.15 AM the same day.?

    2. I read that you mentioned that Basket orders do not support Bracket orders or cover orders at the moment. Do you have any plans on implementing such features in near future ? I do understand the complexities associated w/ bracket orders and users mis-using this facility and causing big overheads for you.

    3. Also, as you mentioned brackets and cover orders are not available under AMOs. will this be added in coming months ?

    Actually i am looking to trade a basket of genuine 20-25 stocks, placed before the normal market opens, with limit price, exit price and stop loss price well defined.

    Regards,

    • 1. yes
      2. I doubt if this can be done in the very near future.
      3. It is a risk management issue to let this happen as AMO as during the opening ticks when the market is illiquid, this can go haywire.

  469. Srini says:

    Hi Nithin,

    When is new platform releasing and will it have bracket order enabled for AMO? and if so, can you facilitate it to trigger when the last traded price is within a specified range?

    2. Is there any possibility/future plan to enable BO for After-market orders ?

    Regards,

    • 1. It might take a while.
      2. hmm.. this is a little tricky actually and may not be possible in its current form.

      • Saurabh Agarwal says:

        Hi Nithin,

        Thanks for your quick reply but not sure about the complexity/trickiness in enabling the BO order for After-market order and in the website terminal.

        While opening the account, I was told that these features will be soon introduced in web terminal as well.
        Basically the problem is, my work timing are 10am to 6pm and in my office laptop, i can’t install any personal use software so kindly tell me how can I make use of facilities provided by your company.

        Thanks,
        Saurabh

        • Saurabh,

          Presently we use a vendor Reuters (earlier Omnesys) for technology, Bracket orders is designed by them for us. The way they have designed is that it requires live market rates to determine the range within which SL/target can be mentioned. (When the markets are closed, the prices compared vis a vis to when it opens in the morning could have a big gap).
          Introducing this on web terminal is something that we are working on.

    Hi Nithin,
    If I have used all the margin exposure to buy (in MIS) in PRE OPEN – between 9.00 AM to 9.08 AM… can I place an exit SELL order for the bought stock as an AMO between 9.08 AM and 9.15 AM ? (all the margin has been used to buy)

  474. Robin says:

    Hi Nithin,
    While placing a Pre Market order, is it possible to place
    1) a Bracket order using the extra leverage ?
    2) a Cover order at market price using the extra leverage?
    3) a Cover order with limit price using the extra leverage?
    4) after entering in pre-market, when the market opens, can the square off exit order be placed with out any extra margin requirement?

    • You can’t presently place bracket or cover order in premarket.

  477. Arun says:

    Hi Nithin,

    Just signed up.

    Just so I understand your previous response of Feb 18th correctly, I can place AMO for amounts less than 25000 (e.g., 10 shares of NIFTYBEES @ 750 = 7500 ) correct ?

    Your policy document here: http://zerodha.com/policies-and-procedures doesn’t seem to reflect the change.
    Could you please clarify.

    Thanks very much.

    • Arun, as long as you are using it for genuine purposes there is no Rs limit, you can buy/sell for as much as you want using AMO. Some of our clients were misusing this by placing hundreds of orders at prices way above or below the market price and hence that condition remains on the Policy document.

      best of luck,

  478. Robin says:

    Hi Nithin,
    I am about to open an account with Zerodha…. But was a little confused about AMO & pre-market orders on Zerodha. The executive was also not sure about these details…and actually gave a total opposite picture of what u have replied.
    I have been trading for the past 2 yrs mainly using AMO with Bajaj Capital-Justtrade. Before changing to Zerodha, just wanted to make sure that Zerodha suits my method of trading.
    That’s why, I have been bothering u with all these questions.
    Thanks in advance.

  479. Robin says:

    Hi Nithin,
    What about pre-market order?….Can I place a MIS order in pre-market (9.00 am to 9.08 am) using the margin exposure applicable?…
    e.g. if I have Rs.10,000 in my trading account, and want to buy SBI (9X exposure) using MIS code (strictly intraday) … during pre-open (9.00 am to 9.08 am)…then can I buy for 85,000 (5000 less than 9X to accommodate brokerage, taxes and loss if any) in pre-market section?

  480. Robin says:

    Hi Nithin,
    Please refer to earlier message (just above this)…
    1) The reason why I asked if margin exposure will be available for MIS order as an AMO is that because, in the margin exposure page on this site, it is mentioned that margin exposure is available only from 9.15 am to 3.20 pm (auto square off). This means that any order done before 9.15 am will not get margin exposure (AMO orders done before 9.15 am)
    2) If Bracket order is an order type like MIS and CNC,… can BO orders be placed as an AMO and also get the exposure limits of BO?

    • Robin,

      1. When you place an AMO order, it is sent to the exchange only once the market opens, so yes you can place MIS orders as AMO
      2. For now BO can’t be placed, but it should be possible in the next few months.

  481. Robin says:

    Hi Nithin,
    1) Is it possible to place an MIS order as an AMO?…i,e. order that I want to trade intraday.
    2) Will I get the normal Margin exposure given for MIS orders?
    3) Is Bracket order and trailing S/L facility available for MIS order as an AMO?

  482. Tanuj Singh says:

    Sir i place my order at 9:10 am and when market opened till that time my order was not executed and I got refrained from a profit of Rs 3/- per share,after the increment of share value my order was executed and i got only less profit.
    Sir what should i do so that my order gets immediately executed when market opens and i get maximum profit.
    Hoping for your kind response.

    • Tanuj, your orders will get executed only at 9.15am only once the market opens, you can’t really execute your orders before market opens. When market opens and if you have placed an AMO order, there is a big queue and it is very tough to say what will be the price you get in the first 1 minute, this is something which is not in anyone’s control.

  483. George Aikara says:

    Can AMO be modified during trading hours? And which product code to be used to place the same?

    • AMO once market opens becomes either NRML/CNC/MIS, based on what you had chosen while placing it before market opening. So you just have to go modify this order from the order book once market opens.

    @Hanan : Today, pre market order got cancelled with a message ” order with invalid attributed”

    • Hanan says:

      Ah-ha! Got it, Ravi. 🙂 The thing is you’ve been placing a Cover Order in the pre-open session. You can place only CNC or MIS orders on the pre-open session. The logic behind this is that CO and BO are grouped orders, which means that one order has to be executed for the other order to be sent out. This won’t be possible in pre-market or AMO settings, so you’ll have to use MIS or CNC.

  491. Ravi Kiran says:

    @ Hanan : Nope, I’m placing order in between 9:00 to 9:07 only and the order has been rejected, but the same order is exeucted when i placed afer 9:15 !!

    Hi Nithin : I’m not able to put pre-market orders. Order is being rejected and the message i’m getting is ” Trading system is not available” ! why is this happening?

    • Hanan says:

      Ravi, pre-market orders can be placed only between 9:00 and 9:07 AM. If you’re placing them before 9:00 AM, you’ll get this message. If you would like to place orders before the market opens, use our After Market Order (AMO) facility.

    Dear Hanan/Nithin,

    • All data feeds that are given by the exchange is shared on the trading platform. So yes if there are trades happening in the premarket, you can see the volume on the platform.

      Cheers,

  496. Anwar says:

    Dear Nithin,

    ….think you missed my second question. Is it possible to reduce the minimum order limit for AMO in equities? And is there any particular reason for this limit, means if it can be shared?

  497. Maddy says:

    After I place a AMO order where do I see the order to modify and cancel it…..

  498. Prabhu Ram says:

    Hope I could still place orders of any value once the market is open

  499. Prabhu Ram says:

    Is the Basket After Market Order banned from today(14th FEB 2014)? I can’t find it in the menu.
    Also, I can’t place an AMO between 9:10 to 9:14, also from today.

    If I split a order for the same symbol into multiple pieces, would it count as as single order.
    Say, I place an order for a stock as three different orders (10K,10K,10K) would it be constituted as a single order. If Basket AMO is banned, then there is no question of the above scenario though?

    Also, may I know the reason if it could be shared (I believe too many market orders at the start would drive the price up sharply)

  500. Anwar says:

    Dear Zerodha,

    Is there any minimum order amount for placing AMO in equities?

    • Hanan says:

      Check out this page for more details on our policies and procedures. These are subject to change depending on market conditions.

      Here are the guidelines for AMO:
      AMO (After-Market Orders) will be allowed only if the value of each order is above Rs. 25,000.
      AMO will be cancelled if the price entered is more than 10% away from the LTP in either direction.

    • Yes Anwar, Rs 25,000 worth of equity atleast in AMO.

      • Anwar says:

        Well..thank you. But what is the reason behind this lower limit on AMO? With my previous broker (sbicap securities) there was no restriction on order amount.

        I am a person with no access to trading terminal during trading hours. Small AMO orders in sequence over some days was my way of making a position in a stock. It helps to average out stock price for medium term investments. Can you consider revising the limit downwards, at least to Rs 10,000?

  501. SDM says:

    Thanks for excellent blog. Last couple of days at market closure price exhibited on our trading system is not what is shown later in the day as closing price on stock exchange. Sometimes difference is 50 or 60 points in bank nifty. Would you kindly explain the reason and how can it be avoided in our sell or purchase at closure.

    • SDM,

      The closing price is the weighted average price of all trades that happen in the last half hour of trading. Usually many people assume that last traded price at 3.30pm is the closing price, but it is not. The closing price after the calculation is updated around 10 minutes after market closing. Hopefully this helps,

      Cheers,

      • Rafi says:

        Hi Nithin,

        My query is not related to post, but would request an answer.

        I am using Z5 for trading. Where can I see my portfolio? ( My investment and current value of holding). I need this badly in order to understand where I am with regards to my investment.

        • Venu Madhav says:

          Hi Rafi,
          On the holdings window in Z5, click the ‘+’ button and the holdings window will show you your portfolio value..Here’s how it looks: http://imgur.com/Yz4vaDO
          To view your Profit/Loss you’ll have to access your Backoffice and view the Account Analysis report under NSE EQ.

          • Rafi says:

            Hi Madhav,
            Thank you for the quick response. I have these issues with Z5

            1. I need to take calculator to know my total stocks value as it shows BSE and NSE separately and no total.

            2. What exactly these BSE/NSE values. The stocks are in demat and most of them can be traded on both NSE/BSE. So does it show cumulative values? Why can’t you just show the purchase value and current BSE/NSE values along with each stock and profit/loss. That would be much convenient. Please have a look at MoneyControl.com or Sharekhan portfolio for example.

            • Venu Madhav says:

              1. The application shows the value of ALL the stocks on BSE & NSE separately.For eg. if you hold 10 shares of Reliance Industries and if its trading at 798 on NSE and 802 on BSE, then the NSE valuation would show 7980 and the BSE valuation would show 8020. Similarly it would show the value of all stocks for each of the Exchanges provided such stocks are trading on the Exchange.

              2. We’re revamping our BO and these features are included in it..We’ll be rolling out the beta of the new Backoffice very soon..

  502. Krish says:

    Hello Zerodha,

    Two queries.

    1. If I’d place an AMO order with product type MIS in equity seg, will it automatically gets square off at 3:20 PM if I won’t square it before that.

    2. Today(Saturday), I tried to place a basket order(using web TradeExpress) for 2 equities with LIMITs and MIS as the product type. After clicking on the place button I got some msg like ‘Do you want to send this basket order to exchange?’ ,I clicked on OK. But I couldn’t find any traces of those orders neither in Order Book or Trade book. I even checked if it has blocked any margin but it didn’t. I thought the orders will be rejected as the prod type was MIS or atleast I should get an error for it( as somewhere in the blog its mentioned that value for each order in the basket should be more than Rs 1 lakh, and I had only 28k on my accnt). please can you see what is the problem..my id is DK0646.

    Thanks in advance.
    Krish

    • Krish

      1. Yes, all MIS positions and orders get squared off and cancelled respectively by 3.20pm.

      2. Krish, can you try this again on Monday, today we are running server maintenance and could be the reason for the rejection.

      Cheers,

    Hi Nithin,
    The PMO link is broken. How do we place such orders?

  506. mkk157 says:

    Hello There,

    Why there is no feature to square-off the positions from the trading account ? Why should a trader / investor always calculate the position using Excel sheet ?

    • Hanan says:

      Sorry, we don’t understand your question. We do have a square off button for squaring off positions and equity holdings from the trading terminal. Everything is calculated automatically in the terminal and there’s no manual calculation required at Zerodha.

      • mkk157 says:

        Hi Hanan,
        Great to see your responses on Z-Connect.
        I use both Market Watch and Trade Express platforms to trade.

        I’m talking about Sqaure-off facility for “Option” contracts. I was not even provided any support from the the executives to understand about the trading platform, no manuals provided. It’s irritating using your trading software with limited facilities.

  507. mknits says:

    I’ve a small doubt. Do Zerodha charge anything extra on AMO?

  508. Sukesh says:

    Hello,

    1) What are the reasons that result in violent activity in the pre market session? is it some kind of a trick played by someone for some reason?

    2) Is there any particular reason why the pre market session randomly closes between 7th & 8th minute? What is the reason for this random closure?

    Regards
    Sukesh

  509. JAY S M says:

    Can we place AMO for intraday??

  510. Sukesh says:

    Hello Nithin, Thanks for this informative blog.

    My question is does my AMO-Stop Loss Order get triggered by the huge fluctuations that usually occurs in the pre market session?

    I believe there is no trade executed in the pre marketing session but only order matching so the opening price of the day is determined exactly when its 9:15AM so the stop loss orders should not be executed in the pre market session – Please confirm this understanding.

    Thanks

    • Sukesh,

      All AMO orders get entered into the exchange at 9.15am and hence all the weird ticks in pre-market won’t affect any of your triggers.

      Cheers,

      • Sukesh says:

        Thanks for the reply, can you please confirm my understanding that there is no trade that takes place in the pre market session whatsoever, both in equities & f&o, its only the order entry and matching that takes place.

        Thanks

  511. Sajeev says:

    Greetings,

    I feel that the Zerodha platform could be more error prone for people who use After Market Orders. Let me illustrate my point with an example – On 18th November I purchased 6300 Calls on both ICICI and Zerodha. On the 18th Nov night I decided that a target price of 39 was reasonable (it had closed around 34).

    On ICICI, I went into my current open positions hit the square off link, specified the limit price of 39 and the order was queued for next day.

    On Zerodha for the same transaction, I have to go and place a Sell AMO for 6300 Call. However this is error prone especially for people who trade in Out of the money options. For eg. Lets say my intention is to square off my existing 6300 Call for 39. However in the AMO sell option in error I choose the strike price of 6200 instead of 6300. If this gets executed the result would be that instead of squaring off my existing position I have written/sold a naked call of 6200 (assuming I have the requisite margin in my account) for 39 or above.

    I would suggest that for existing open positions, 2 links be provided – (a) Market Square off (which can be disable during off market hours) (b) After Market Hours – If one clicks this then it provides options for either a limit, stop loss or market square off and the order gets stored as an AMO. This will minimize chances of error.

    Thanks and warm regards,

    Sajeev

  514. Souravdddd says:

    Hi I tried to place a sell limit AMO yesterday night but the order did not go through stating an error “price entered is not a multiple of tick size”
    Can you please let me know why his is happening… When is the window open for AMO on Monday morning trade….

    • Hanan says:

      As the error suggests, you have to place your order in multiples of the tick size. Could you please elaborate on which commodity you’re trying to place the order for? Generally, the tick size on NSE is 5 paise and for most commodities it is 5 paise. For some commodities, the tick size is 1 rupee.

      AM orders for EQ are open from 5 PM till 8 AM the next morning.
      AM orders for Commodity are open 24 hours, but are sent at 10:00 AM every morning!

  515. ASH says:

    i am a beginner and have one doubt. if i buy 100 shares of XYZ @Rs.100 and want to restrict my losses to Rs.3 per share, i put a SL-M order on the sell order entry,at a trigger price of Rs.97, correct ?

    now also, if i want to put a sell order for a target price of Rs.105 , should i do this order by admin positions in square off facility or should i put another sell order for a limit price of Rs.105 in another sell order entry ? Please advice

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Ash,

      1. yes.

      2. You can place your sell order either from admin positions or use a fresh selling order, it doesn’t matter.

      Cheers,

      • subramanya says:

        Hi, its an continuation to ASH question , if SL-M triggers at 97 and again that stock crosses 105, that time it will considered as SHORT ? or other order will be cancelled automatically if SL-M/TGT hits ?

  516. babula says:

    whenever I place limit amo on commodity,it is never executed. even if the market price crosses my limit price at the opening market.what is the reason. I place amo from 9.50 a.m to 9.56a.m thanks babula bhuyan

    • Hanan says:

      Babula, I think we’ve answered your query by phone. This information is for all other users: We cannot place regular orders before the market opens. Before the market opens or after the market closes, you can only place AMO.
      Regular orders can be placed only when the markets are open. I hope this clarifies.

    Is it possible to have more than one order window displayed at the same time,say NF and option/two cash scrips so that sudden ups and downs can be capitalized in two or more scrips to enter /exit.at the same time.

    Now I am keeping one order window open, put the order at market and click submit when I want and then click another scrip,click F1/F2,put order at market and execute by which time rate has already gone up down by a few points,it can be even10/20 points say in bank nifty.

    Hi,

    1.If I Buy Stock today on delivery bases and price of that Stock goes up in today’s trading session, So I decide to Sell them tomorrow using BSTS. My question is Can I Sell this Stocks in tomorrow’s Pre-Open Session?

    2.for example, I Buy Stocks of XYZ company on delivery basis. and after some time that company Delist or Suspended from that particular exchange. so Can I Sell that stocks?

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      1. Yes you can sell it in BTST in pre-open. But do read the risks of trading in BTST on this blog.

      2. If a company delist from the exchange you will not be able to buy/sell on the exchange. If you have got stocks, you need to tender it back to the company or find a buyer for it out of the exchange.

    Dear team,
    I want to buy Vivimed laboratories which is hitting its upper circuit from past 10 sessions….
    today it is closed at 164.50…5% up from its previous session….
    how I have to place an order to buy it..??? Post-market order or Pre-market order…???
    And at what rate i have to place the order…164.50 or more..???
    and 1 more question….
    now the stock is locked at 5% upper circuit and when it starts hitting lower circuit it will be locked at 5% or the lock is totally removed….
    And Are these type of shares safe…????

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Kumar,

      When a stock is hitting circuit it wil be very tough to buy it because the reason it is hitting circuit is because there are no sellers. If there are no sellers, there is no way you can buy be it in market, pre market or after market. How to place a pre/after market is already explained in the blog above,

      Is it safe to trade these kind of stocks? Absolutely not, the same way it can hit upper circuit continously, it can also hit lower circuits continously..

      Cheers,

    Can someone please let me know if it is possible to place an order that gets executed based on the execution of another order? For example i place an order to buy xyz shares at price p1. I want to place a buy order at price p2 and sell order at price p3. Both of them should be open only when the first order at price p1 is executed while only one of the orders at price p2 or p3 should get executed. In a nut shell i want to exit with a pre-specified profit or loss.
    Thanks in advance and anxiously awaiting a reply.

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Lakshmi,

      Such an order is called as a bracket order, unfortunately exchanges presently consider it is algo’s and don’t approve this for retail clients.
      You can manually place a profit order and stop loss, but will have to cancel once the other is executed manually. But what you are asking is presently not possible.

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      lakshmihv Aug 8 2013, 11:09 pm

    Can we post pre-market orders during weekends?

    How can I create a basket order of limit orders and submit it during the weekend to trade on Monday? How can I increase the chance of execution if it is illiquid small caps i.e. can I execute an algorithm?

    • adeepvalueinvestor says:

      Sorry, I don’t mean pre-market order, I mean after market order (AMO).

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Yes you can place basket orders as AMO. Go to orders and trades, After market order and then click on basket order.

      To be able to use execution based algo’s you will need to have a dealer terminal and is not possible on retail client terminals.

      Cheers,

    • adeepvalueinvestor says:

      Thank you for your reply. Appreciate it.

      Any plans of making the algorithm available to retail customers? It would be really helpful for small / midcaps.

      In the meantime, what do you suggest to retail traders buying small / midcaps. How can we acquire positions without too much impact cost? I have heard market orders are risky; if I put a limit order for 1000 shares, will it automatically buy in lots of 100 or will it show a bid for 1000 shares on the market?

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      We do have algos for better execution of orders, it is called i3, check this blog. Presently i3 is allowed only for dealer terminals and unless you are someone who trades very big quantities, it doesn’t make sense to subscribe for this product.

      What you could do is use the disclosed quantity feature while buying and selling stocks. In your buy/sell order window, if you want to buy 1000 shares, mention quantity as 1000 but disclosed quantity as 100. This way on the market depth window only 100 shares will show up, but actually your order is for 1000.

      Placing market orders on illiquid mid/small caps can be pretty risky.

      Cheers

  528. Sajeev says:

    Hi,

    Please let me know if for equities, Zerodha allows stop loss orders during AMO. For eg. if Reliance closed the day at 872 with a high of 880, can I place an order specifying that Reliance should be bought if it goes beyond 880 with a limit of 890 at 9 pm in the night for tomorrow’s trading or has it got to be a limit order only. I am in the process of opening a trading account with Zerodha and would also like to consider Zerodha for the demat account if stop loss orders are possible during AMO. My current broker ICICI only allows limit orders during AMO.

    Thanks,

    Sajeev

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Sajeev,

      Yes you can place limit, market and stoploss orders in AMO. If reliance is trading at 880 and if you want to place an AMO order to buy only if reliance goes to 890 which is higher than the market price you need to use a buying stop loss order with a trigger price of 890.

      Check this blog on Stop loss orders. But yep the facility is definitely available.

    Does Zerodha provide single trading platform for equity, currecy and commodity. If yes Do we require separate margin.

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Yes, we have single platform for you to trade equity/currency/commodity on NSE, BSE, MCX-SX, MCX

      Equity and currency can be traded with single margin, but commodity would need separate margin.

  534. rameshkatyayan says:

    dear Zerodha,
    pl. let me know the advantages and disadvantages of trading with the start of the opening bell that is exactly at 9.15 A.M. and then exiting out at or before 11 a.m.? I think we can pick up the initial support prices to enter in this way.

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Ramesh,

      Had missed your question.

      Entering exactly at 9.15am is tricky because there is still a certain price discovery happening and you would not know where exactly the price would settle. It is always best to let market settle down for atleast 5 mins before entering a position

      1. Premarket orders can’t be used for fno, it is allowed only for equity trades. But you can use AMO orders for FNO.

      2. Orders are executed based on price and time. So if 2 people but an order to buy a stock at same price, the person who placed it earlier is filled first.

      Premarket orders that you place between 9 to 9.08 is placed on the exchange, whereas AMO is sent to the exchange at the market opening. So if you are looking at getting an execution in the opening few ticks, Premarket orders are definitely much better option….

      Cheers..

    Hi,
    I would like to know is there any leverage for after market orders.

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Using after market orders, you can place MIS, CNC and NRML orders. MIS is a leverage product, and you can use after market orders to place this..

  541. rf.harsha says:

    Hi,

    I watched this video on how to place order in Zerodha: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DsPvsQYWAE

    In the video it says to select PCode as-CNC for trading delivery (Interday trading),MIS for Intraday square up trading and NRML for F&O trading.But I dont have CNC option at all in my profile,just have MIS and NRML. As I dont much do Intraday trading and not at all do F&O,It doesnt seem to be useful for me without CNC. Please help me on this.

    Regards,

    • rf.harsha says:

      Correction:
      It is not PCode ,it is Product Type I was asking about

    • rf.harsha says:

      Also please let me know what needs to be selected for making delivery equity orders(i.e.,I buy on one day and sell on some other day)

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Harsha,

      For doing CNC trades in equity, that is to buy stocks and hold it overnight you need to open a demat account with us along with your trading account. If you have opened the demat account and it is not showing up, will have it fixed, but if you want to open a demat account also, shoot an email to [email protected]..

    Good evening Sir,

    If i placed an AMO buy order(limit order)after 6.30pm. but tomorrow the price is not reached as i expected, should i modify the order during the market hours? pls reply sir

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Hi Jahir,

      When you place an AMO it gets placed on to the exchange before markets opening.. So yes, if the price is not reached you can go to order book and modify the price during market hours…

      Cheers..

      • AJAY says:

        Hello Sir,

        I would like to get some clarification in AMO orders..I am giving some examples here..pls clarify my doubts

        Example:

        Reliance Communication is closed at Rs.100.00 on 02.01.2015

        I think RCOM will move up with heavy volumes on next trading day

        So I have placed AMO order @ Rs.101.00 @ 9.00 AM (+1.00% difference from closing price).I have placed in NSE Cash&F&O

        1.On next trading day @ 9.15 AM ,RCOM is open with a Gap up of +2.00% and its moving to +4.00% difference..

        In this scenario,whether my AMO orders will get executed at 9.15 AM?

        On the opposite side

        2.RCOM is opening without any gap in its price @ Rs.100.00,whether my AMO order will get executed?

        3.RCOM opening with a gap up of +2.00% and coming down to my AMO order price after 9.16 AM,whether my AMO will get executed or not?

        4.RCOM opening with a gap down of -3.00% ,whether my AMO order will executed or not?

        Regards,

        Ajay

        • 1. Your order will be remain pending at 101.
          2. Yes, your order will get executed at Rs 100
          3. Yes it will if price drops to 101
          4. Yes it will get executed, at whatever is the opening price.

          • Kishore says:

            To add to the above lets say

            I want to buy xyz who’s ltp is 100, in AMO at a price of 102 as I’m bullish on the stock and I’m willing to go up to 104 and not more than that . But the stock opened at 106 and I don’t want to risk the trade at that high price.
            Now my question, Is there a way to place an AMO with max price that I can go upto rather than going with the market price?

            • Yes, just place a limit price at 104. So it will act like a market order with a max cap of 104.

              • Chirag says:

                Sir,
                1) In commodity market can i put ordered as SL and SL-M in AMO? (For buying or Selling)

                Supposed Commodity market closed and Zinc closed at 179.10 and supposed next day Zinc will open at 179 and no any conformed direction so,

                I want to buy Zinc if price go up above 180 (Its Resistance R1)
                I want to sell Zinc if price go down below 178 (Its Support S1)

                And i am not online user so i can put order in AMO with the help of SL and SL-M?

  543. kinjhoh says:

    nice information. I have small doubt. Pre market timing is from 9.00am to 9.08am and in the same time i can also place AMO(After Market Order)? If yes, then how do place order’s for it??

    Suppose if i want to place a but order for reliance 10 shares by 9.02am…. then how do i place an order.. is it like ctrl+f1(AMO) or nowmal F1 buy order entry??

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      During the pre market time between 9 to 9.08 am, you can place orders normally, the same way you do when market is open using the F1/F2 window.

      You can continue placing AMO orders till 9.15am using the Ctrl+f1 option.

  544. mitali says:

    Is it mandatory to have a demat a/c for post market orders as the product type is CNC. If not then how can someone place a post market order and is there any leverage?

  545. Empire says:

    I want my order to have validity of more than one day(like 3 days or 4), how will i do it? Plz reply

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Empire, it is presently possible only for trading commodities where you can choose an order to be either Good till date or Good till cancelled.

      Not possible on equity, you would have to cancel and place a fresh order again.

      Cheers,

      • ramprasad says:

        Why is there such a restriction ? It is very difficult to put a order everyday, for fear we may not be able to place the order on time for the early markets.

        Other brokerages like sharekhan, do provide this option. Is there a reason or plan for zerodha to provide this option?

        • Venu Madhav says:

          We’re doing something to address this. We’ll keep you informed.

          • Satya says:

            Hi Zerodha,

            I’m new to Zerodha. Would like to know if u have any plans to provide features like ICICI direct’s VTC(order valid till cancel) and cloud order where we can store orders. I am a long time investor and following around 40 stocks, so it’s not an easy task to create order every time. without these features, It will be very time taking.

            • On our list of things to do, will take some time.

              • Saidarshan says:

                Hi Nithin, Yes we would really want to see VTC (Valid till Cancel) feature on Zerodha. I hope it is available for us soon

                • Rahul says:

                  Hi Nithin,

                  I am frustrated now by placing ‘Stop loss order’ every day. I have 18 stocks in my portfolio and you can understand how much it’s difficult for me to do a monotonous thing every day at least in this tech era, need a permanent solution. A couple of other users already raised same concern in past.

                  I am a software engineer and don’t think Zerodha tech team really needs years to develop this feature.

                  This is very simple ask from us like a small investor who is handling their portfolio by themselves.

        • ramprasad says:

          Thanks . please help to resolve this asap.

          Being a long term investor, i just want to put a order for long duration, without worrying about every day stock disturbances.

      • RAJENDRA says:

        Any Update?Sir please do it as soon as possible and update us…

        • Venu says:

          Currently NSE cancels all un-executed orders after market closing. We are working on providing this facility, it’ll take some time because of the complexity of the required feature.

    • Shreyas says:

      Any update on this?

      • Venu says:

        Not yet. We’ll keep you posted.

        • Yogendra Pahariya says:

          Hello Nithin/ Venu,
          First thanks for providing such discount brokerage. I am eagerly waiting for GTC (Good till Cancelled) order for a long time as a long term investor. I have been a IIFL customer for years but planning to switch my broker now. IIFL provided this facility (known as VTD) for some time but just noticed that they are withdrawing this awesome feature. It gives me impression that brokers/exchange themselves don’t find it good their interests and trying to get away from it. But, being a pioneer and innovator of such a business model, i would expect zerodha to introduce this feature by enhancing their software even at some premium charge. All your software need to do is to carry forward and schedule all unexecuted orders for day as AMO for next day.
          As of now, I am aware of ICICIDirect and Kotak Sec providing this feature.

          Will appreciate your response.

  546. db0174 says:

    Hi, sir if I place any order in post market between 3.40pm to 4.00pm when would it be executed?

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      It will be executed immediately. Between 3.40 to 4, you can place only market orders and all buying/selling will happen at the closing price of the stock. You can place only in equity segment and only delivery trades(using product type as CNC)..

      • Mukesh R says:

        Sir Thanks for this information , Is the same holds true for Pre open btw 9-9.08

        • Zerodha Social says:

          Mukesh, pre-market is different. During the pre-market session for the first 8 minutes (between 9:00 AM and 9:08 AM) orders are collected, modified or cancelled.

  547. Shashank says:

    Do we have to place after market order in currency after 5.30PM And before 6.30 Pm.Please mention the correct time in now System.

    • Nithin Kamath says:

      Shashank, What we meant was that you can place AMO orders anytime after 6.30pm till the markets open the next day… Cheers..

        If I want to Buy any BSE Shares in Pre-Opening market Today morning then Is it possible to Buy in Pre-Opening session in BSE Shares…

        I try today but order rejected Reason is …Below 1st rejected in pre-market…2nd is at 9-15 AM Rejected
        Rejection Reason: Admin stopped AMO
        Rejection Reason: TRANSACTION NOT ALLOWED IN CURRENT INSTRUMENT STA

        Any another way to buy BSE stock or NSE stock in Premarket which is not included in F&O Segment?

  551. Nithin Kamath says:

    Thanks for pointing the mistake happened by oversight, yes AMO orders are allowed on all segments, equities, futures and options, Currency and Commodities trading. Please make a note of the same Abhishek

  552. Arpit says:

    Dear,
    Zerodha I beg to differ my friend has placed AMO order in F&O and successfully executed it.

  553. Nithin Kamath says:

    @ Sukesh, what time you place an AMO has no significance on the priority in which your order is executed. As soon as the market opens at 9.15am, all the AMO orders are sent by the broker end. If you are looking at AMO to get the best rate in the first 1 minute of the market opening, it is not the right tool. AMO orders are mainly for people who don’t have access to market during trading hours and want to place orders to enter and exit. If the objective is that it is better that you place an order yourself as soon as the market opens.

    @Abhishek, AMO is allowed on equity and f&o

    • dineshAI says:

      HI Zerodha,

      1. Suppose i want to purchase A nifty lot only if market opens above say 6000. What is the best order i should use?
      2. Does your mobile application and you web application supports PMO and AMO as i dont see any such order there please clarify.

      Thanks

  554. Abhishek Jain says:

    Is AMO applicable to FNO also?

  555. Sukesh.m.r says:

    I would like to know on what basis would my order be prioritized when i place an After Market Order (AMO).

    For Example i place an AMO at 7:00PM on one day, at what time would it be released to the market the next day? Suppose there are other people who have placed AMOs for the same stock at the same price then on what basis these orders be prioritized for execution?

    Also I have seen other brokers allowing us to place AMOs from 3:30PM itself however Zerodha allows us to place orders only after 6:30PM of the trading day. Please let me know does this in any way affect the priority of my order during execution?

  556. Nithin Kamath says:

    After market orders(AMO) is usually placed by people who don’t have access to the markets during normal trading hours. For example, if you are a software engineer who can’t access the trading platform during the day, you can place limit orders the previous evening itself using AMO..

  557. Shashi says:

    why they use AMO MARKET?

  558. Nithin Kamath says:

    Santhosh, if you have questions to be answered, send them as an email to [email protected] and we will make a blog on them and answer it to you..

  559. Santhosh says:

    whats the meaning of portfolio and pivot points?

  560. Nithin Kamath says:

    Post Market Session also called Closing session is a special window provided by NSE for investors to close their trading positions if they realize that they don’t have enough money if you have bought stocks or enough stocks if you have sold them. This facility is designed to help in such situations to exit positions. @Zerodha such a situation would probably never happen as we won’t let you buy stocks if there is not enough money and sell stocks if you don’t already have them…

  561. Bharath says:

    Dear Zerodha,
    What is the purpose of Post Market Session at NSE?

  562. Nithin Kamath says:

    Yes Madhu, AMO can be placed as limit and market, the important thing to know is you cannot modify between 8.45 to 9.15.

  563. Madhu says:

    Thank you very much for the info.

          how to place stop loss in amo ?. I have tried to place limit sell order in triveni engg at around 88rs in amo and prevoius day closing was around 91 rs. so next day triveni engg opened with gap up opening at around 93rs and my order was executed around 93rs. How is this possible?. I called zeodha customer care, she told me once you place sell order your order will executed whether price reaches limit price or not, this is not digestible. So say if i have holdings and i want to out stop loss and i want my order to get executed only if stop loss price is breached and not when it goes up…how should I place the order

          • Punit, currently SL orders in AMO is deactivated. We should have it up soon. The reason for this is because we send AMO’s at 9 AM. Exchanges don’t accept trigger orders at that time.

            • Sudhir says:

              When AMO Stop Loss facility will be up, it is very inconvenient.

              • Matti says:

                Hey Sumit, all the pending orders on the exchange are cancelled at the end of the day. The exchange does not maintain orders overnight. That said, we are working on a mechanism to provide long-lived orders. This will take some time though. Until then, I’m afraid you’ll have to place orders each day. Alternatively, you can place AMOs every evening.

          Hi Nitin,
          Suppose I have to sell shares of a particular company for intraday at the pre-opening session. Should I go to MIS order at preopening or wait for 9:06 and then sell my share 0.50/1 re less than pre indicative opening price.

          what should be the best way if I want to sell at the opening price.

          • Matti says:

            There is no guarantee of being able to sell at the open price. You can place an AMO market order that will be sent to the pre-open session. If the order isn’t filled, it’ll be carried into the regular market time (9.15) and converted to a market order.

        • Santosh says:

          I am using Zerodha and my trading style has changed, I am no longer trade during market hours and rely on AMO orders , But things are difficult with zerodha,
          Zerodha should give AMO with bracket order and time to execute. AMO with bracket order should be sent to the market after pre-opening session so that exchange can accept it and people like us don’t have to wait for 9:15AM.
          As I trade using demand and supply zones, so I don’t need to seat there for whole day, and sometimes, my trades are getting executed at 9:15AM, (most of my daily trades), so unable to get benefited from zerodha AMO & Bracket orders as such. Please allow bracket order in Zerodha.
          Please refer tradingview features of AMO and Bracket orders, you can also introduce GTD setting to allow cancel our non executed trades. I usually plan my trade off hours and go to office. Currently using interactive broker they have feature but looking for indian broker. Make trading simple as tradingview.

      Hi,

      for example xxx trader prev close is 100 rs, nd market opens at 104 rs, if i place pre market order at 100(prev close) for buy order, what price it will consider?

      I have placed AMO yesterday for selling stock. Checked today for the status still today shares not sold (Note: Order placed in pennystock) even at 1 PM. Whether that will be sold at 3.30PM automatically or again i have to place AMO for next day. Please suggest

    • Swapnil says:

      How does a Buy AMO order behave if we select SL or SLM option.
      While placing AMO if we mention SL and mention trigger price – does it mean that a parallel SELL AMO order will be placed at the SL trigger price ?
