Market protection compulsion after 1st april

tuxred
Hi

As per recent email
"Market orders will require market protection. Orders placed with market protection set to "0" will be rejected. Learn more."
so ... if my python script places a market order with protection=2 ... there is a possibility that it might not get executed .. right? But how will my script know whether its still waiting to get executed?

    The Market Protection feature has been implemented in all SDK libraries, including Python.
    You can refer to the documentation.

    @tuxred if my python script places a market order with protection=2, Here, ‘2’ refers to 2% protection, and the behavior should be as expected.

    @nagavenij ... yes I figured that out. Suppose I give 1% protection and the price surged ahead .. my order wont get fulfilled right? can i search the pending order and cancel it? .. because I dont want my script to "assume" that I have bought a NIFTY LOT and then proceed with its SL or Target. That would be disaster because ... I dont want to place SELL order (under assumption that I already have a successful BUY earlier) in order to sqaure-off a position that was never opened.
