Trade Smart, Trade Safe: Introducing Simplified Stop Loss and Target Setup on Angel One

Controlling your trading risks shouldn’t feel like solving a jigsaw puzzle. If you’ve ever found Stop Loss (SL) and Target configurations too complicated, you’re not alone. At Angel One, we’ve listened and simplified the entire process. Now, setting Stop Loss and Target orders is quick, intuitive, and hassle-free—just the way it should be.

Why Managing Risk Matters

Trading without risk controls is like driving without brakes. While the excitement might be tempting, it can often lead to unexpected setbacks, missed opportunities, and shaken confidence. Consider this:

• Sudden Market Shift: You’re in a favorable position, but before you can react, the market moves in the opposite direction, affecting your potential gains.

• Overconfidence: Without a clear risk management plan, small losses can accumulate, impacting your trading journey.

This is why setting Stop Loss and Target levels is crucial. It gives you control, reduces stress, and ensures your trades are safeguarded against sudden market fluctuations.

The All-New Stop Loss & Target Setup on Angel One

We’ve reimagined the Stop Loss and Target setup to make it as seamless as placing an order. Here’s what’s new:

Set Stop Loss and Target Together

No more switching between screens. Set both levels from one streamlined interface, saving time and effort.

Predefined Options for Quick Decisions

Choose from predefined percentage levels like 5%, 10%, 15%, or 20%, or customize your SL and Target to align with your trading method. 

Example:  If you want to set a Stop Loss at 5%, simply select the option. The system will apply the selected risk parameters automatically. 

Available Directly from Positions Book

Manage risk right where you monitor your trades—no need for additional calculations or navigating to multiple screens.

OCO Orders for Smart Execution

The One Cancels the Other (OCO) feature ensures that if either your Stop Loss or Target condition is met, the other automatically cancels. No manual intervention is needed.

How It Works: Simple Steps to Set SL & Target

Here’s how you can start using this feature in just a few taps:

1. Open the Positions Book in your Angel One app.
   Find the trade you want to manage and click on the Stop Loss (SL) or Target option.
2. Set your desired levels:
   Use quick options like 2.5%, 5%, 10%, and 15%, or enter a custom percentage/price.
3. Review your SL and Target setup.
4. Click Confirm—and you’re done!

Angel One’s system will now manage  your risk parameters automatically—no extra steps or manual calculations required. 

How It Works

Let’s say you bought 50 shares of ABC Ltd at ₹100 per share. Here’s how you can manage your trade:

• Stop Loss (SL): You decide to limit potential loss at 5%. Set your SL at ₹95.

• Target: You want to set an exit price at ₹110.

If the stock reaches ₹110, the system executes the order accordingly. If it drops to ₹95, your Stop Loss triggers to manage risk. Thanks to OCO, the remaining order cancels automatically once one condition is met. No stress. No manual monitoring.
