You can set a trigger price as well as a limit price with your GTT order. To use this facility, place a sell order in your broker&#8217;s platform and select \u2018GTT\u2019 in the order type. Your broker will automatically place the sell order when the stock price hits the mark.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the stock reaches your preset target price, the broker will place your order with the stock exchange, and the exchange will match and execute your order. Thus, the GTT option helps you to complete orders at any desired target price.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, a <\/span><b>GTT order<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> does not trigger more than once.

title=&#8221;What is a GTT order in the share market?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;faq-gtt-meaning&#8221;]<br \/>\n[vc_column_text]<br \/>\nA GTT (Good Till Triggered) order lets you set a specific price at which you want to buy or sell a stock. The order remains inactive until the trigger price is reached, after which a limit order is automatically placed, removing the need for continuous market monitoring.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text]<br \/>\n[\/vc_tta_section]<\/p>\n<p>[vc_tta_section title=&#8221;How is a GTT order different from a regular limit order?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;faq-gtt-vs-limit&#8221;]<br \/>\n[vc_column_text]<br \/>\nA regular limit order is valid only for the trading day or until manually cancelled. A GTT order remains active until the trigger condition is met or its validity expires, usually up to one year, making it more suitable for automated execution.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text]<br \/>\n[\/vc_tta_section]<\/p>\n<p>[vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Can I cancel or modify a GTT order after placing it?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;faq-gtt-cancel-modify&#8221;]<br \/>\n[vc_column_text]<br \/>\nYes. You can cancel or modify a GTT order at any time before it is triggered. Once triggered and converted into a limit order, changes are possible only if the order has not been executed.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text]<br \/>\n[\/vc_tta_section]<\/p>\n<p>[vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Is there any expiry period for GTT orders?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;faq-gtt-expiry&#8221;]<br \/>\n[vc_column_text]<br \/>\nGTT orders generally have a validity of up to one year from the date of placement.

GTT orders are especially useful for long-term investors who want to automate buy or sell decisions at predefined price levels without tracking the market daily.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text]<br \/>\n[\/vc_tta_section]<\/p>\n<p>[vc_tta_section title=&#8221;What happens if the trigger price is breached outside market hours?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;faq-gtt-gap&#8221;]<br \/>\n[vc_column_text]<br \/>\nIf the price gaps beyond the trigger during pre-open or at market open, the GTT usually triggers at the first available price. The resulting order attempts execution based on liquidity and the chosen order type.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text]<br \/>\n[\/vc_tta_section]<\/p>\n<p>[vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Is there any extra cost for using GTT orders?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;faq-gtt-cost&#8221;]<br \/>\n[vc_column_text]<br \/>\nMost brokers do not charge any additional fee for using GTT orders. Standard brokerage and statutory charges apply only when the order is executed.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text]<br \/>\n[\/vc_tta_section]<\/p>\n<p>[vc_tta_section title=&#8221;Can I place GTT orders for all stocks and segments?&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;faq-gtt-availability&#8221;]<br \/>\n[vc_column_text]<br \/>\nAvailability depends on the broker.
