Placing research in Kite
Research tells you what an analyst thinks. Whether you act on it, and how much, is always your decision. When you do want to act and you trade with Zerodha, Place in Kite saves you typing the order in.
On a stock call
A single-stock call that says buy, accumulate, sell, reduce or exit shows Place in Kite under the card. Choose how many shares, and whether the order is a limit order at the analyst's entry price or a market order. A hold call places nothing.
On a model portfolio
Open Illustrative amounts, type an amount, and the table works out whole shares for each stock at delayed prices. Place in Kite turns those quantities into delivery buy orders, at most ten at a time, as Kite allows. Anything that is not a plain NSE share is left out and named.
What happens next
- You see the exact orders and a short fingerprint of them.
- You tick that you approve exactly these orders. If anything changes, you approve again.
- Open in Zerodha Kite opens Kite in a new tab with the orders filled in.
- You log in there, on Zerodha's own page, and can change the quantity, price or product.
- Nothing is placed until you confirm each order in Kite.
Not on Zerodha? Copy the orders and place them in your own broker's app.
What we do not do
We do not place orders, hold your money, see your broker login or take any share of brokerage. The levels are the analyst's research, shown as published. Read the call's reasoning and its risks before you trade.
