Zerodha Part 2

[Zerodha]

I have a follow up question. For option with two legs (strangle/straddle etc), does the order gets executed in one trade or does each leg is executed separately (when I submit the spread or straddle or strangle as a single order).

strangle/straddle and other such strategies where there are multiple trades taken at one time, orders are executed separately...

The only strategy where you can ensure both get executed at same time is the calendar spreads.. http://www.zerodha.com/z-connect/blog/view/zt-spread-orders check this out..

Buddy, Zerodha and its team itself have frequent visitors of this thread.

I have observed on behalf of Zerodha (I guess they all are part of Zerodha) do entertain people here

Its not good to name them!!!

So dont get excited for the number of viewers

5, you can look at everything in life like " glass as half full or half empty", that is an individuals attitude to life.. But I guess it is always better to be an optimist and look at it as half full, especially for people like us who are in the business of trading..

Cheers..

I don't see MCX-SX in my exchange list when I log in to Zerodha. Hardly anyone seems to be trading in MCX-SX equitiy segment, looking at the daily volumes and number of shares traded (reported on MCX-SX).
How will they get liquidity if they have't enabled clients? How will they get clients if they don't have liquidity?

Marker,

We want to, but I guess SX hurried up into the launch leaving a lot of issues for brokers like us to go live..

For all the new exchanges it is a chicken and egg situation, no liquidity no traders, no traders no liquidity... ..

But we should be live next week and that offer for free trading on MCX-SX will continue for a bit after we go live..

Hi Zerodha,
in case of open positions (positional) is there any way to get the actual profit and loss details.... in ZT the calculation is different and becoming difficult to know the actual profit and loss... Please let me know...


thanks.

THere is no discount that we offer.. If you have referred any other client, you get 10% of the brokerage revenue generated by that person, no discount on your trades and all..

Ping me your client id, will explain how it works..

how many trades are allowed per day in options at the fixed rate of Rs.20 per trade??

 

[Zerodha]

Zerodha please reply.

Ideally the role of a broker is to square postions before it gets into a debit balance..

Typically, if margin required for nifty is around 28k, We will not square off upto 20% loss on this, above which we will as NSE short margin penalty will start kicking in, if you are keeping position for overnight..
