Last day I bought 30 quantities of a stock intraday for 1000 rs. And kept SL limit order ( sell ) at 985 rs. Then i moved away from my system.
After 30 minues ,I came back to check positions. My buy position SL got triggered at 985 and exited.
But a sell trade executed with 30 quantities ( same as my buy trade ) on 985.
That sell trade got my at breakeven though.
Still why it happened like that. It was not meant to be like that from my side. Any help?
Sorry if it confused you.
After my SL hit and exited buy position,
A reverse sell trade got executed as same quantity as my buy trade. And the sell trade was going on untill I bought it back on market price.
The order at 1.49.51 was the culprit. Since the exit order punched at 1.49.38 , there was not much time for the pending next leg to get removed. At least that’s what I am understanding.
As soon as the buy trade exited , the left alone order got punched. All was happened in matter of micro seconds. There is no significant gap between 38 to 51 seconds.
Anyways , in future i seriously hope for all trading activities in a single window in zerodha. Both in handheld and PC devices. That can help is mitigate the unnecessary tab switching.
