Schedule Order: Trade on Time, Every Time

A Schedule Order lets you decide exactly when your stock order should be placed during market hours. Choose the execution time, enter your order details, and let the system execute the order.

Unlike a GTT order, which waits for a specific price, a Schedule Order follows the clock. It’s an automated order execution system for disciplined, time-based execution without manual intervention.

Whether you’re planning an intraday strategy or looking to schedule stock orders online, Schedule Order helps you trade with precision.

GTT is price-triggered, while Schedule Order is time-triggered. It is a time-based trade execution app designed for traders who want orders executed at a specific time.

My scheduled order was placed but not executed. Why?

Schedule Order sends your order to the exchange at the selected time, but execution depends on price matching, liquidity, and market conditions, just like any regular order.
