Punch Protection

What is Punch Protection?

Punch Protection is a built-in risk management tool that helps you safeguard your trades:

 

  • Set stop-loss (SL) and target prices together on your positions.

  • Works as an OCO (One Cancels Other) order — once SL or target is hit, the other is cancelled automatically.

  • Includes built-in risk–reward ratios and automation for better discipline.

  • If you exit your position, then the protection order too gets auto-cancelled.


    💡 No extra margin needed to place both SL and Target together.

 

Can I place my target and stoploss together?

Yes. With the Protection feature, you can now set a stoploss price and a target price to your position at the same time without requiring any extra margin.

What if I just want to place Stoploss and not target?

✅ Yes. You don’t always need to set both SL and Target.

While placing a Protection Order, simply toggle off the Target option — your position will then carry only a Stop-Loss.

What happens if I exit a Protected position on Punch?

If you choose to exit a Protected position, your stop-loss and target will be cancelled automatically. This feature is known as auto-cancel.

What happens if I modify a protected position?

If you add lots to your protected position, the stop-loss and target will automatically adjust for the existing lots. For example, if you have a protected position of 5 lots and add 3 more, the Protection will still apply to the original 5 lots.

What happens if I partially exit a Protected position on Punch?

In this case, the Protection will stay on the remaining lots. This feature is known as auto-modify. For instance, if you have a protected position of 5 lots and partially exit 2 lots, the Protection will continue for the remaining 3 lots.

At what price will the stop-loss or target be executed for a Protected position on Punch?

The price you set for the stop-loss and/or target will act as the trigger price for the protection order. This order will be executed with a 5% market protection for added safety.

Is there an additional margin charge for using protection on Punch?

No. Punch Protection doesn't require any extra margin to set SL (stoploss) and TP (take profit) together.

Can I set my target and stop-loss when placing an order on Punch?

🚫 Not yet. Currently, Protection Orders only apply to existing positions

To place SL & Target along with your entry order, you’ll need a Bracket Order — and this feature is coming soon to Punch.

What is the validity of a Protected order on Punch?

Protection applied to an open position remains valid until it is triggered, the contract expires, or a corporate action occurs.
