Hi!
I wanted to know the holiday list for Zerodha offices!
The post above has the holiday list.
Hi Nitin…
Is there a way in Zerodha I can have the Heikin Ashi Charts with Live line charts together ???
Heiken ashi is available both on Kite and Pi. You can’t have the line chart and heikin ashi at the same time.
HI.
JUST RECENTLY IVE JOINED ZERODHA . I WAS THINKING WHY I DIDNT JOINED ZERODHA BEFORE . I LOVE THE SERVICE . I HAVE SMALL SUGGESTION WHICH I WOULD LIKE TO BRING YOUR KIND ATTENTION
PI SOFTWARE IS TERRIFIC . ITS INTERNATIONAL STANDARD .
1. WHEN THE RATE REACHES TOP OR BOTTOM OF THE CHART , ITS BEEN TO DIFFICULT TO PUT A STOPLOSS ORDER OR VIEW THE RATES ABOVE/OR BELOW THE CHARTS. IF ITS POSSIBLE TO SHRINK OR EXPAND THE CHART WITH THE MOUSE IT WOULD BE VERY USEFUL
