Kite new order panel

I get new order panel but very confusing right now @Arockiya_Raja

What is confusing brother here ??

Could you provide more specific details about your confusion? This will help us assist you more effectively.

We have been used to the previous panel and shifting will be a pain. Can I ask the reason for change in the order panel since it’s a very sensitive part of a trading app?

The changes that I found new are the following:

In the quantity tab, the arrows can be used to switch between Qty and amount.

You can either enter the quantity you want to buy/sell like (1, 2 or 100) , or you can enter the amount such as (₹2000 or ₹10,000 etc) by clicking on the arrows.

In the price tab, the arrows can be used to switch between Limit price and Market price

Rest of the features are pretty much the same.

I used this new panel over the past few days. It is very confusing. It requires you to think a lot before punching the order in. Whether it is amount, market, etc. Too many combinations.

@Arockiya_Raja Mark my words in beginning what I said ,now no one is liking your new order panel :sweat_smile:

I don’t know how the previous order panel looked but the new one is pretty sleek and minimalist.

I found placing orders with the new order panel with a sense of calm and zen. I think I am liking the new order panel so far.

You just put the quantity and swipe. Simple, elegant and zen. :ok_hand:t2:

We wanted to avoid using complicated terms like MIS and CNC, which can be difficult for new users to understand. Also, some options were used by a small group of clients but were visible to everyone, confusing for those who didn’t use them. This change was implemented after thoroughly analyzing data and going through several iterations. This plan was made with both new and existing users in mind.

Order window is the most used part of the Kite app, so when we switch to the new design, we understand that some users might initially find it challenging or may not like it because they have been familiar with the old design for over 4 years. However, most users will get used to it after a few days or weeks and then find it convenient. If something consistently turns out to be inconvenient, we will make the necessary changes to improve it. We consistently review feedback and discuss whether any changes are needed.

We appreciate everyone who takes the time to share their feedback. It helps us build a better product. Thank you for your feedback, and please keep sharing it with us.

While intra day is same as MIS, I would say there’s a reason a term like CNC exists. It best conveys the trade. Pay full cash and carry forward any number of days.

Some terms have to be learnt to take part in markets. Some effort is required :slight_smile:

The broker themselves marking a trade as long term will cause mental confusion, when you can sell the stock the next day too.

Very true.

I never knew any of these terms when i started, i did take the effort to look it up and there are many articles in Zerodha support portal that explains them.

Finance world is filled with many Acronyms and Abbreviations. It can’t be avoided and naturally anything new involves some effort to get a basic understanding.

Even GTT can sound complicated, but once u learn, u will get the hang of it.
