How do I handle partial fills or pending legs in basket mode on FYERS?
Basket mode executes legs sequentially and you may see some legs Pending or Partially filled while others complete. Use the order window and the Orders screen to manage price, quantity, and status until the basket stabilises
Explanation
- Where this applies: FYERS App → Options Chain → basket mode.
- Execution model: Legs are placed one by one; statuses show as Executed / Pending / Rejected / Partially filled.
- Impact on margin: Until hedge legs execute, Funds req may remain higher; it normalises as hedging legs complete.
Manage partial fills & pending legs (FYERS App)
- After submitting the basket, review the result screen for each leg’s status.
- Tap Go to orders to open live orders for pending or partially filled legs.
- For a Limit leg stuck at Pending, edit the Price closer to traded levels, or switch to Market if immediate execution is essential.
- If only a portion has filled, Modify the remaining quantity or wait for completion based on liquidity.
- If a leg is Rejected, view the reason, fix the input (price/quantity/product) and use Retry where shown.
- Monitor the footer in the order window (Funds req / Funds avl / Net premium / Charges) as statuses change.
- Once key hedge legs execute, check Positions to confirm the strategy state; adjust any residual exposure if a leg cannot be filled.
Tips: Keep hedge legs priced realistically, use Market for time-critical legs, and watch Funds req until the basket completes.
Pending too long? Tighten the Limit price or switch to Market. Partial fill persisting? Modify remaining quantity or wait for liquidity. Margin high? A hedge leg hasn’t executed yet—fix and retry that leg.
What If…
| Scenario | What you can do |
|---|
| A Limit leg is Pending | Modify the Price towards the traded range or switch to Market for faster execution. |
| Only one side of the hedge filled | Complete the other leg quickly; until then, Funds req may remain elevated. |
| A leg was Rejected | Check the reason in Orders, correct inputs, and use Retry where available. |
| Partial fill not completing | Modify the remaining quantity or price; consider waiting if liquidity is thin. |
| Need to pause and place later | Use Save to keep the basket, then resume from the order window. |
