Frequently Asked Questions
Intraday trading means buying and selling a stock within the same trading day. You do not take delivery of shares, and the position must be closed before the market session ends.
In delivery trading, you pay the full value and hold shares in your demat account. In intraday trading, you only trade the price movement during the day and do not take delivery.

No. Buying power depends on stock eligibility, liquidity and margin requirements. The available margin is shown before you place the order.
Short selling means selling a stock first and buying it back later in the same session. It is used when you expect the price to fall. The position must be closed before market close.
Auto square-off means an open intraday position is closed automatically if you do not exit it manually before the square-off time. The final price depends on market conditions at that time.
