TFC: Appreciation & Suggestions

[Champion_Trader]

Zerodha has launched the TFC feature in beta, and as always, the performance and stability are top-notch!

@siva @Arockiya_Raja
Here are a few suggestions that could further enhance the experience:

1. Show past execution arrows on the chart (not just intraday). This would help in analyzing trades when revisiting charts after a few days or months.
2. Draggable Target & SL box – A feature to set target and stop-loss orders at the desired price, similar to TradingView, would be extremely useful.
3. Display trade type along with quantity (Intraday/Delivery/MTF, etc.) for better clarity while reviewing trades.
   
   
4. Spacebar shortcut to open the next instrument’s chart – This would make navigation smoother, as the up/down arrow keys are used for scrolling through the watchlist.
5. Modify order placement behavior – After enabling instant order placement, limit orders placed using the “+” button near the price scale execute directly, preventing quantity or price adjustments. It would be more useful if the “+” button prompted for confirmation, while the Buy/Sell box near the scrip name placed orders instantly.
6. Include GTTs on the chart in the future, which would be a great addition for long-term traders.
7. Alerts on the chart – Having the ability to set and view price alerts directly on the chart would be incredibly helpful for tracking key levels.

Loving the new TFC feature! Looking forward to seeing these refinements in the upcoming updates

Would love to hear from other traders as well, Feel free to share your feedback and suggestions.

It would be great to see the total P&L directly on the chart itself, so we don’t have to open the positions tab (which closes the chart.)

I have discussed most of these suggestions with @Arockiya_Raja but shared them on the forum to get insights from other traders as well.

1. This is tricky, replied here.

Feature suggestion - Wouldn’t it be great for casual investors if Zerodha added a ‘Show My Trades

Currently, on ChartIQ, you can view buy and sell executed orders on the chart for the same day. Displaying historical trades presents challenges, as it would require fetching past order data with each chart interaction. Additionally, displaying only executed orders without associated P&L may not provide much meaningful insight, and incorporating P&L data would further increase complexity. Considering these challenges, we need to evaluate whether this aligns with broader user needs. Thanks for yo…

2 and 3 - Yes, We will check the feasibility.

4, 6 and 7 - We will evaluate this feedback.

5- Clicking the + symbol would not place an order; when the user selects limit or SL, the order is placed. Qty can be filled at the left side section I pointed out in the screenshot. where you keep the + button to invoke the order window, and the price is picked accordingly. Product type MIS/NRML was picked based on the recent order.

Thanks for your reply.

As of now, I don’t need past P&L values. I only need past executions to analyze my trades in post-trade analysis—whether I bought at the right place, sold correctly, etc.

Ah, right! Sorry, I didn’t notice it.

@Arockiya_Raja Voting for execution arrows for the past trade. It will be great for the trader to analyse the past trades and improve on themselves with their buying and selling and eventully do better with their money. Kindly consider it.

[Arockiya_Raja]

The terminal mode feature we planned should address this.

[Arockiya_Raja]

@ST_Trading

When are you launching Terminal Mode?

It’s too early to give a timeline now.

Alerts on the chart – Having the ability to set and view price alerts directly on the chart would be incredibly helpful for tracking key levels.

Thanks @Arockiya_Raja for the quick implementation
I hope future updates will allow us to view and modify alert lines directly on the chart.

The new Marketwatch update is amazing
Unlimited watchlists with group features, sorting within groups, color tagging, and preset watchlists categorized by sectors & other improvements.

@Champion_Trader bro is the new marketwatch in kite beta website?

[Champion_Trader]

Yes, it’s on the Kite beta website.

@Arockiya_Raja Are we going to get execution arrows for the past trades in Terminal mode

Are we going to get execution arrows for the past trades in Terminal mode

No, this is not part of terminal mode.

Okay. So will this feature come eventually or it’s not in to do list.

Displaying this on the main chart is not feasible. You can already view MF purchases on the NAV chart — we’re exploring a similar approach for stock holding too, and it’s on our wishlist.

When we sell MF units they just disappear… Can you make it such that entry and exits are show seperately?? @Arockiya_Raja

If we are not analyzing it for holding stocks or mutual funds, then it involves mapping the trades on the price chart. However, understanding which buy corresponds to which sell on the chart presents a different challenge entirely. It’s not as straightforward as merely plotting markers. We have taken note of your feedback and will explore a clearer approach in the future.
