Schedules

Up to 5 schedules can be set for any day of the month between 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM with a 30-minute interval. Each time slot allows only one SIP per day. In case the scheduled date falls on a holiday, the SIP order will be sent to the exchange on the next trading day. SIPs can be paused or modified accordingly.

Baskets

Linking one or more existing baskets is necessary to create a SIP order schedule. If multiple baskets are linked, all the orders will be placed in the same SIP trigger. A new one can be created if there are no existing stock baskets.

Funding the SIP order
