When placing an order, you need to select a product code. These product codes identify the category of the order. For example, you can place the below mentioned order types,

  1. CNC – For trading Equity in delivery
  2. MIS – For trading Equity & F&O in intraday
  3. NRML – For trading F&O, Currency and Commodities for overnight position. Since these positions are not intraday positions, the margin requirements for these will be as per the overnight margins. Also, they will not be squared off by our system at the end of the trading session.

To learn how to place the orders you may refer to our video tutorials.

      Hi Praveen,

    hi what is ticks in CO, how it is different from the Abs. I checked the video but its showing only about Abs not about ticks

    1. Trade Smart Online

      Hi Vibhor,
      Ticks are the count of every single moment of a stock. Let’s say SBI stock price fluctuate at 250.50, 250.55, 250.60. This means, tick size of SBI is 0.05 points. For one rupee movement the tick size will be 20 points.
      Absolute(Abs) means price movement in multiple of Re.1. Abs of 1 represents price movement at every one rupee. i.e 250, 251 252 etc.
      We recommend you to use Abs all the time to avoid any confusion.

    hi can I use NRML order for equity, for e.g if I buy 100 quantity of TCS can I carry forward for say 2 days then sell it. I am not taking any future lot only some quantity of some equite

    1. Trade Smart Online

      Hi Vibhor,
      To carry forward(Delivery) equity position, you need to use CNC product type. NRML is used for Futures & Options carry forward.

      1. vibhor kale

        hi it means there is no carry forward possible in equity as of now apart from future and options for that we can use NRML

        1. Trade Smart Online

          There seems some confusion. We usually use “Carry forward” word for Futures and options to carry the position to the next day or till expiry. To Carry forward FNO positions, NRML product type is used.
          For equity trading we use “Delivery” word for buying shares today and selling anytime after today. To take share in delivery we use CNC product type.

    hello TOS team,
    I placed a CO from Sine. I want to place a take profit order. How is that possible? consider my Trade price is 190 stop loss is 188 and i want a take profit order to be placed at 191. Please advice

    1. Trade Smart Online

      Hi Abdul,
      In case you want to place profit order separately then you would be charged margin again as the profit order is considered as a new order. We would suggest you to place Bracket order wherein you can place your buy/sell order along with the stop loss as well as target order simultaneously. According to your example, Bracket order will help you to place all the three order simultaneously i.e your buy order at 190, stop loss at 188 and also a target profit order at 191.

        Hello TOS team,
        Thank you for your reply.

        My enquiry is regarding MCX. And I suppose there is no BO for MCX. So to place a Take Profit order for a cover order, for example Zinc or Lead, how much margin should I have?

        Suppose, I place a buy order CO for Lead at 144.0 with a SL @ 143. Then i have to place a new order right? What type of order is that? Can you please eloborate?

        Your response highly appreciated.

        Thanks and regards

          Hi Abdul,
          Firstly, we would like to inform you that Cover order(CO) is the 2 leg order where in you can place only 2 orders ie. Buy/sell in first leg and stop loss in second leg. You cannot place profit order along with CO. In case of CO if the market is at your expected profit level then you can always exit your CO. By exiting your CO, second leg will execute at market price instead of 143 stop loss and you could book profits. Just want to inform you that we are working on Bracket Order for MCX too and soon will be launching the same. Hope your query is addressed.

            As you said since there is no BO available at the moment for MCX, you can place a Take Proft order by using my margin. Please eloborate what order is this. and what is the margin required.

            Hi Abdul
            Apologies for the confusion. Request you to please ignore our earlier comment about another order type. We should have explained that in a better way. Hope we do a better job this time.

            The cover order is a 2 leg order where in 1st leg will be your buy or sell order and 2nd leg will be a stop loss order. Since, cover order is a 2 leg order, you cannot place a target or profit order. This is a limitation with Cover Order and you’ll need to manually square off the the open Cover Order position once it reaches your target.

            ​Your requirements shall be fulfilled with bracket order which we are going to launch very soon. This will help you to place all the three order simultaneously i.e your buy order, sell stop loss and target/profit sell orders.

            Using MIS or any other order type for this will not be advisable as
            1. MIS order will be considered as a new position and your Cover Order position will stay open. This will lead to additional margin getting blocked as if it was a fresh position.
            2. The MIS and the Cover Order positions both will need to be squared off separately.

            So the suggested options would be either of the below
            1. Square off your cover order position manually
            2. Wait for Bracket Order if you don’t wish to do that
            3. Use MIS for all 3 legs of the order. All 3 orders will need to be placed separately in this case. The margin requirement would be higher. And you’ll need to remember to manually cancel the other order leg if either of your target or SL order get executed.

            Hope we did a better job in explaining this time. Please let us know in case you still have any questions.

      Hi Kalpesh,
      You can place Sl order in MIS in Sine mobile app.
      Below example lets you know the difference between SL and SL-M.
      Example: If you bought abc share at Rs.100 and placed SL sell order at 98(Trigger price at 98.10), in this case once the market hits to 98.10 then your sell SL order will get triggered and complete order at the price between 98 and 98.10.
      In case of SL-M, you are required to mention only the trigger price for sell order. If the market touches to trigger price then your order will get execute at next best price in the market.

    Suppose that I buy 1 lot of NIFTy future at price 8800 after 10 days sell the position at 8900. How many pay to brokerage and if any interest cost for 10 days
    Please send answer

    1. Trade Smart Online

      Hello Mr. Sharma,
      For futures contracts you are required to maintain margin when you buy any lots. Suppose Nifty future contract carry forward margin for 1 lot is Rs.50,000 then you are required to have full amount of Rs.50,000 to enter into the contract for 10 days ad per your example. Future contracts settles on daily basis and MTM(Mark-to-market or P&L) will be booked in your trading account on each day till next 10 days. By any means if your account is in negative balance then you are required to pay margin shortfall charge.
      For the better understanding, you may refer our knowledge base article on Margin shortfall penalty.

      To know how much is the brokerage charged, please refer Brokerage calculator.

    2. admin

      To add, it is mandatory to maintain the margin as per the SEBI guidelines. In case of a margin shortfall there are huge margin shortfall penalties.

      As far as the brokerage is concerned, you may refer to the brokerage calculator as mentioned above. However, for an example, if you’ve chosen the Rs 15 per order brokerage plan then the brokerage would be Rs 30 (Rs 15 for buy + Rs 15 when you sell).

      Please let us know in case you have any other queries.

    1. Trade Smart Online

      Hello Vikarm
      It seems that you are referring to an intraday trade. While selling you can place a sell order and need to select the same product type(MIS, CNC or NRML) in which you bought. This will square off your position. If the sell order product type is different then system considers as different order and blocks your extra margin. You can also square off your position from admin position > select the trade that you placed > click on square of button at the bottom right corner of desktop trading software. You may also use our online chat support available on our website for further assistance.

      Hi Mukesh,
      When placing an order, you need to select a product code. NRML is one of the product codes. These product codes identify the category of the order. The order could be intraday (MIS), equity delivery (CNC – Cash and Carry), NRML (Normal) etc.

      NRML is used for F&O, Currency and Commodities for overnight positions only. Since these positions are not intraday positions, the margin requirements for these will be as per the overnight margins. Also, they will not be squared off by our system at the end of the trading session.

      In case of equity (cash segment), normally NRML is not available with most other brokers. However, we’ve introduced a facility where you can get a higher exposure for delivery too. We’ve named this product EquiMax. To learn more about EquiMax please visit our article on EquiMax.

      EquiMax (product code NRML for cash segment) is available only with NEST and now available with NOW.

      In case you still have any query please do let us know.
