So I have been testing an idea using Python. And once the Entry order was triggered, in the span of 1 sec both SL and TGT orders were placed as per my trade logs in the program. But when I check Zerodha's orderbook, the TGT order was placed fine, but there was a delay of around 33 mins for the SL order to be placed. I am currently testing with 1 qty of each stock shortlisted, but in case of bigger capital, the losses would be huge if SL order is not placed in time.
This has happened multiple times. Why is this happening and how to avoid this?
The trades are from 16th Dec 2021, last week. The excel file is trade report generated from the program. Attaching the tradelog (text file) screenshot Also attached Zerodha orderbook timestamps.
The sl order was placed simultaneously with target order at 9:25:36. The orderbook is showing sl 33 min after target order beacuse it was modified at 9:58:11. And its showing the most recent time it was modified. There is no issue from zerodha side.
can you let us know what timestamp you are checking on orderbook?
Or did you check the order history for timestamp when it is placed?
