Shakthi, you can modify or cancel the orders ... Click the + (plus) sign on the "Open Order Book" ... you can see the orders placed and their status ...

If you scroll to the right, there will be "M" which stands for modify ... Click on it, it will open the order form on which you can modify the values ....

Can anyone please tell me how to square off position orders? Suppose I have bought some shares/futures and they are currently showing in the Position Book section. Now how do I sell them or square off that particular trade?

Any guidance will be highly appreciated.

Hi Sandeep, In NSE paathshala, there's no square off option ... If you have a buy position, sell the contract or equity from market watch ... Once the sell order executes, your current holding quantity will update as Zero ...

If you are looking for square off in a particular broker, name the broker, so that someone can guide where you can find it with exact instructions ...

Hi Mani.. Great resource. However, can I trade futures with this? And what is meant by high & low range of an option?

I am also trying NSE paathshala. Tying currency futures derivatives. My question is how to close or take profit after getting profit? Because though I am getting profit I cannot close my trading and after one day I can see only the minus or losses. Can I close my trading just after I get profit? supposing I bought or sell on Friday and saw profit in the morning Monday, in that time can I close my trading? Because just after getting profit I dont want to wait for expiry date. Because if I do buy or sell till expiry date my money will be gone. Supposing by selling usd Inr I got heavy profit. after that I dont want to make buy or sell. is it possible?
