‘VTT (“Valid Till Trigger”) order type’ is a feature which allows a Client to place an order when a price hits a threshold (particular price) set by the Client. Also, users can set a stop loss and target for such orders. Only Delivery template orders will be allowed in VTT Order. Once the condition as per set price threshold is met, the order as per the price threshold set by the Client will be placed on the Exchanges.
VTT feature has two sub types namely, i) VTT Regular and ii) VTT OCO orders. Both types of orders are collectively herein after referred to as the VTT Feature.
Difference between VTT Regular and VTT OCO Order
i) VTT Regular order is for placing of a three leg order. It allows a client to place a limit trigger order for placing an initial order and simultaneously allows the client to place a target and a Stop loss order without requiring to have any holdings in demat account or existing position in derivatives segment.
ii) VTT OCO is a 2-part order. You set a stoploss and target order at the same time as per your need. Use it to plan ahead for your current holdings and positions for up to a year in advance.
When the Actual Order Gets placed ?
While using the VTT feature, the actual order is placed only once the price threshold conditions set by the Client are triggered. 5Paisa Capital Limited (herein after referred to as “5Paisa” / “Company”) system stores the price threshold conditions, as set by the Client, and sends the order to the Exchange as and when the price threshold conditions are triggered.
‘VTT Feature’ is allowed on the Equity cash segment and Futures & Options segments on NSE, BSE & MCX.
Need to Maintain sufficient cash balance and holdings / margins required for positions
At all times while placing a VTT order, Clients are required to maintain sufficient cash balance /margins & sufficient quantity of holdings/positions of the respective scrip in Client’s respective trading account as per the order details. In case there is insufficient cash balance or insufficient quantity of holdings/positions with respect to the VTT order at any point in time in Client’s trading and/or demat account, the VTT order may be cancelled/failed at the sole discretion of 5PAISA& the 5PAISA Risk Management System (RMS).
Various parameters/ pre-trade checks are done by our Risk Management System (RMS) before orders placed by Clients are pushed to Stock Exchanges.
All such checks are done as per the rules and regulations of the Exchanges, SEBI & 5PAISA internal risk management policies and procedures.
No Call &Trade feature at 5PAISA shall not be allowed for Clients to use VTT order. There is No limit on maximum number of VTT Orders at any particular point in time as long as the Client has fulfilled the margin requirements as set by RMS team from time to time(maintained sufficient cash balance) in his trading account with us for all his orders.
