Discontinuation of 50% Off on Brokerage for Female Traders on Dhan

Hi @VijayNair

We have written in details about Order Execution of DEXT (our underlying trading engine) here - Dhan: Understanding Order Execution Performance, Speeds and Response Times on DEXT

Without commenting on any specific platforms, it is important to understand how these systems work behind the scene.

@PravinJ

What is usually skipped in measuring Order / Trade Performance:

• We have noticed few threads and posts where usually only the first leg of the trade (Order Submitted to Exchange) is considered as a performance measure where the response comes via APIs that the order is submitted, however the next and most important leg of trade - Risk and Order Validation is skipped, which is technically incorrect way to measure the end to end performance.
• Additionally, we have also noticed that Trading Platforms that having similar underlying OMS platforms have been shown to have very different speeds of execution. This is likely for many reasons, however this wouldn’t be very high differences in any cases.
• When it comes to APIs, few broking platforms may use wrappers around the front-end applications to process the trades and these do not connect directly to the core OMS. In such cases, there is an impact on the performance of order execution speeds.
• The underlying network and technology architecture is one of most important factors in deciding - peak user volumes, high trade volumes, and likes. These vary from broker to broker, and usually not considered in third party measures of performance.
