    Flash Trade

    What Happens If I take a Flash Trade in F&O and forget to square it off?

    Handling of Flash Trade depends on the time validity selected while placing the request.

    Case 1: Flash Trade Validity Ends Before Market Closes

    • If the Flash Trade has a time validity within market hours, it will appear under:
      • Flash Positions
      • Open Positions
    • If you forget to square it off, the system will automatically square off the position once the validity time ends.
    • The position will be squared off from both Flash Positions and Open Positions.

    Example:

    • You placed a Flash Trade at 12:00 PM
    • Validity selected: 2 hours
    • Validity ends at 2:00 PM

    If you do not square off the position manually, the system will automatically square it off at 2:00 PM.

     

    Case 2: Flash Trade Validity Extends Beyond Market Hours

    • If the Flash Trade validity goes beyond market hours or into the next trading day:
      • The position will no longer appear under Flash Trades
      • It will move to Open Positions
    • The position will remain open and will not be auto squared off
    • It will stay open until you manually square it off or until the expiry date

     Example:

    • You placed a Flash Trade at 12:00 PM
    • Validity selected: 4 hours
    • Validity ends at 4:00 PM (after market close)

     The position will remain open and will be visible only in Open Positions page on the same day or next trading day.
