How does Disclosed Quantity work in FYERS?

How does Disclosed Quantity work in FYERS?

Disclosed Quantity lets you display only a portion of your total order quantity to the market at a time. This can be useful when placing a large order and you do not want the entire quantity to be visible in the market depth.

Why use Disclosed Quantity?

By default, the full order quantity is shown in the market depth, which could impact price movement especially with large orders. Disclosed Quantity helps manage this by showing only a portion of the total order.

Example: Suppose you place an order for 1,000 shares and enter 200 as the Disclosed Quantity. Only 200 shares are displayed to the market at a time. After those 200 shares are executed, the next portion is released, and the process continues until the complete order is filled.
