Large Order Slicing

What is Large Order Slicing in Futures and Options?

Large Order Slicing allows you to place large derivative (F&O) orders that are automatically broken into smaller slices for smoother execution and minimize market impact.

Order slicing automatically gets active when the order qty exceeds the exchange’s maximum limit for single order.

For example, for NIFTY, the maximum allowed qty per order is 1800. So, if client places an order exceeding 1800, the system will automatically slices the order into multiple smaller orders to ensure smooth execution within the exchange prescribed limits.

If the Order qty is not in the multiple of Minium order qty (lot size) then the following Error message appears- “Please enter the order Quantity in the multiple of defined Lot size.

Key benefits of Large Order Slicing:

• Minimizes market impact when placing large trades
• Achieves better average price
• Automates slicing and reduces manual intervention
