Looking for a reliable alternative to Zerodha's ATO feature

Hi everyone,

I’ve been using Zerodha’s ATO feature find the tool useful. However, I’ve repeatedly encountered situations where the target price has reached, yet the order does not get executed. As a result, my experience with the feature has been less reliable.

I have raised this concern with the Zerodha team, and their explanation has been that the trigger price was not actually reached, which is why the order was not executed. I am not convinced with their response as I’ve observed this tool to be failing time and again. I’m no longer fully confident in relying on the ATO tool for my trading needs.

Hence I am looking for any alternative tools that offer more consistent and dependable execution? I’m open to paid solutions if they provide a better experience.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

ATO execution depends on the exchange-traded price actually hitting the trigger, not just the candle high/low on charts. You can check yourself the tick by tick data & verify.

Hi, I punch market orders only. It’s not about the order, but the conditional order that we are talking about, which doesn’t trigger even if price has reached.

Today’s Nifty high as per depth in Kite is 23556.95. My ATO was at 23556.15, but it still did not execute.

Can you tell me how to see tick-by-tick data pls?

Please check these two articles. They are about GTT orders, but I think the same logic may also be applicable to ATO
