* Please note that once the profit/stop loss order is executed, the system would trigger a cancellation request for the remaining order which might take a duration of maximum 10 seconds for execution. We request you to kindly maintain sufficient price difference between both the prices especially while trading in highly volatile scrips to avoid the execution of both the orders simultaneously. Any loss arising due to execution of such order shall be borne by the customer and 5paisa shall not be liable for the same.

Market Order 
A market order will be executed promptly, subject to availability of orders on the opposite side, without regard to price and that, while the customer may receive a prompt execution of a “market” order, the execution may be at available prices of outstanding orders, which satisfy the order quantity, on price time priority. It may be understood that these prices may be significantly different from the last traded price or the best price in that security / derivatives contract.
