Keep this tab open during market hours (laptop must not sleep). The app checks every minute, about 3 seconds after each 1-minute candle closes. Orders are never placed by the app itself: "Place order" opens Zerodha's own order window with a LIMIT order filled in - you press Execute there.
Signals today
| Time | Instrument | Trade | Limit price | Target | Stop if close | Status | Action |
|---|
A signal can be ordered for 3 minutes (the order-wait rule). If you do not place it, it is marked "Skipped" and the app carries on as if there is no trade. Once Zerodha shows your order filled, the app follows that trade and holds back new signals for that instrument until your position is closed.

Times are candle start times as on the Kite 1-minute chart. "Signal candle" is the 44 / 200 SMA crossover candle; it is confirmed when it closes, one minute later. Profit / loss = points × rupees per point × lots, before brokerage and taxes.

Zerodha only keeps data for contracts that are still trading. A day can be backtested only if the contract you would have traded that day is still in this list. Blue = monthly expiry.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Press "Check now" (uses live prices - during market hours). | ||||
Nifty, Sensex, Crude Oil Mini: at-the-money CE only (buy or sell). Bank Nifty, Midcap Select: buy only - at-the-money CE for a bullish signal, PE for a bearish one. Gold Mini: the CE and the PE with the highest premium between the set range (default ₹700-1600) on strikes that are multiples of 5000, re-picked every 15 minutes; sell signals only, from each option's own chart. The live app picks the at-the-money contract at the moment of each crossover.
Instruments
| Live signals | Trades | Lots | Lot size (units) | ₹ per point, 1 lot | Round strike to |
|---|
Live signals: untick to stop signals for that instrument. Lots: how many lots each order is for. Lot size: units in one lot (blank = Zerodha's list). ₹ per point: rupees gained or lost per 1 point move for one lot (blank = lot size for NSE/BSE; 10 for Crude Oil Mini and Gold Mini). Round strike to: the at-the-money strike is the price rounded to this (blank = the value in Strategy numbers, 100).
Zerodha's current lot sizes are shown after the option lists load (Watchlist page).
Alerts
"Check the chart": while you are in a trade, the app warns you when 3 one-minute candles in a row go against your trade (red for a bullish trade, green for a bearish one; a doji counts), or when an against-colour candle closes beyond the 20 SMA. Spot / futures chart; Gold Mini: the option's own chart. It only warns - it does not change the exit rules.
