I have been facing this issue SL limit orders. the price hasnt even reached the trigger price on charts but still it gets executed. Zeerodha says that can be possible because the ticks might have got trigeered at the exchange and says this issue is with all. not every tick is shown on charts. Today I was shocked. Set my SL trigger at 191.3 and price 191.5 . on chart the highest was 186.55 around and still it got executed. Now I dont know if there can be this much of error in exchange and chart rates. Have you guys been facing this issue. Nifty options. Because my friend’s order on other broker didnt trigger (though I havent tested on other broker- will definitely do that and keep this thread updated). Meanwhile please let me know your view on this guys (Forum because I know the answer from Zerodha would be similar as what they told me earlier)
I’ve faced this on other brokers too, deep OTM option ticks can spike at the exchange without reflecting on charts, so stoplosses can trigger even when the chart doesn’t show that price.
I have faced this issue with ATM and slight OTM options (60-70 points gap from spot price)
