Important Features of the Zerodha Kite Order Window Are Unveiled:
- Order Slicing
- Real-Time Margin & Market Depth View
- Remember F&O Order Quantity
- Market Protection
- New Basket Icon for Multi-Instrument Orders
- Smoother UI Integration
The latest update introduces six key improvements, specifically designed to streamline trading operations for active traders and Futures & Options (F&O) participants.
1.) Order Slicing
To address exchange freeze quantity limits, Kite now includes an automatic order-slicing feature. This automatically splits large orders into smaller, acceptable quantities. This means users no longer need to manually split their orders themselves. However, brokerage fees will apply to each executed slice.

2.) Real-Time Margin & Market Depth View
Traders can now instantly view available margin and market depth directly from the order window, eliminating the need to switch screens or navigate elsewhere. This boosts transparency and speeds up the order execution process.

3.) Remember F&O Order Quantity
Kite now remembers the quantity entered for any F&O contract (index, stock, commodity, or currency). This saves time for frequent traders who place orders repeatedly.

4.) Market Protection
The Market Safety Feature protects against price volatility. If an order’s execution price exceeds the predefined safety limit, the platform converts it into a limit order. This ensures it isn’t executed at unexpectedly high or low prices.

5.) New Basket Icon for Multi-Instrument Orders
A new basket icon has been added to the interface and can be accessed from anywhere. It lets users quickly create and execute multi-instrument orders, boosting speed and efficiency for those trading multiple instruments at once.
