Kart

Next to ‘SIP’, we have the section on ‘Kart. Let us now set some context on what is a Kart and what are Kart orders.

How to Create a New Kart from Orders?

Understanding the Two Types of Kart Orders:

  1. Normal Kart: In this type of KART order, all the added stocks will be placed in the market simultaneously, without any time interval or holding between two orders.
  2. Hedge Kart: The Hedge Kart is designed specifically for Hedge-based F&O trades to provide margin benefits. Usually, hedge orders in options reduce the margin requirement to 1/4th of the original margin. However, brokers typically offer this benefit only if you place the BUY Option trade first and it gets executed before placing the SELL Option order. But with our Hedge Kart, you get this benefit even if you place the SELL order first. We send all orders as a market order in Hedge Kart, ensuring your orders are executed with the minimum margin required.

So, whether you are a beginner in the stock market or an experienced trader, KART is the ultimate feature that streamlines your trading experience and helps you execute multiple orders effortlessly.

Discovery of Kart:

  1. Go to Sky App > Orders
