Super Updates to Super Orders: Introducing Multiple Exits on Super Order, Super Trail and more!

[Naman]

Dear Traders & Investors,

One of the core things that all of us at Dhan have focused on is building our own technology stack from scratch. It helps us in many ways - we run our core proprietary trading engine - DEXT, we are able to provide low latency APIs on DhanHQ, are able to merge software and infra capabilities to offer you DEXT T3 - The Trading Terminal, bring newer product segments like Stock Renting via SLBM or ability to buy Gold directly from Exchanges with Gold Vault, and so much more.

Benefits of our own tech stack helps us also on the data processing side, are able to bring things like full market depth on NSE & later for commodities via MCX, introduce Order Flow data on Charts, and much more that you have seen on Dhan, ScanX and more.

One of the most important things we have built on our trading engine DEXT - are proprietary order flows with Forever Orders, SIP in Stocks, Trigger SIPs for Stocks & ETFs, Super Orders, Trade Plans and similar.

When we introduced Super Orders back in March 2025, the response from this community was incredible. You tried it, pushed it, gave us detailed feedback, and told us exactly where it could go further. We have been reading every single thread, every comment, and every suggestion since then, and continue to do so every day.

We have introduced a few updates to Super Orders since then and shared with this community how traders are utilising the Super Order. The snippet of the post is here :

@PravinJ

We would like to conclude that 37% of times when Super Orders are used, traders see a positive outcome for themselves, while in 63% of cases they are able to limit their losses.

Today, we are back with a significant set of upgrades to Super Orders. These are major improvements and enhancements that we are able to bring and upgrade to Super Order v2.0, some of these are capabilities that do not exist anywhere else in the industry today.

Here are the big updates on Super Orders V2.0:

Set Multiple Targets on a Single Super Orders

One of the most requested features of users, be it investors or traders is the ability to get more out of a single order. When you buy or get into a trade, is there a way to set multiple targets - so you can book partial profits / exit and stay on for the final exit to happen.

Yes, now Super Order makes you do that - a single order that can set more than one exit target.

Until now, you could set a single target and a single stop loss within a Super Order. Starting today, you can set multiple (up to four) targets within a single Super Order, along with a stop loss. This means you can now define your complete trade plan within a single order, partial exits at multiple levels, while your stop loss holds firm.

For swing traders, positional traders, and anyone who manages trades in tranches, this changes how you place and manage orders on Dhan.

Super Trail - Introducing Dual Trail for Stop Loss and also for Target

The second, and arguably the bigger announcement today, is Super Trail. We have separated out the trailing functionality from Super Order and built it as its own dedicated order type - Super Trail is now a standalone order type on Dhan.

Super Trail gives you an Entry, a Target, and a Stop Loss, and on top of that, you can now enable trailing independently for both your Stop Loss and your Target.

What is new, and what is an industry-first, is the Trailing Target. When the market spikes sharply in the direction of your trade, the Trailing Target moves with the LTP, tracking the high of that spike. It does not execute immediately. It waits. It only hits the market when the price ticks below the high of that spike.

This means instead of your target getting hit at a pre-set price while the move is still running, Trailing Target lets you stay in the trade and capture more of that spike. No other platform offers this to you today. We built this because many of you have experienced the frustration of watching a target execute just as the real move was beginning. Super Trail with Trailing Target is our solution to that.

Trailing Stop Loss, as many of you know, moves the stop loss in the favourable direction of the trade as the LTP moves. That has been available on Dhan for a while and continues to work the same way within Super Trail.

Now Super Orders are valid for 365 Days

The next upgrade addresses a gap that many of you pointed out since the launch of Super Orders. When you placed a Super Order for Delivery, MTF, or a Normal carry-forward position, the Target and Stop Loss legs were already valid for up to 365 days.

However, the main entry leg, the first leg of the order, was only valid for the day. This meant pending entry orders for positional trades had to be re-placed every day. That limitation is now removed.

The main entry leg of Super Orders for Delivery, MTF, and Normal order types can now be set with a 365-day validity. Your entire Super Order, entry, target, and stop loss, now stays active until it triggers or until you choose to cancel it.

Any Order can become Super: Add a Target & Stop Loss on an Existing Position

We have also made it possible to place a Target and Stop Loss directly on any open position. If you already have a position open and want to apply a target, a stop loss, a trailing stop loss, or a trailing target on it, you can now do that directly from the positions.

You do not need to have placed the original order as a Super Order. Any order or open position can now become Super Order.

You know what’s the best thing - this is also available on Dhan Charts, where you can simply drag and drop your TP and SL levels from the positions panel directly onto the chart.

Trigger Order is now part of Market & Limit Orders

Finally, we have simplified how trigger-based orders work across the platform. Earlier, the trigger functionality lived in a separate tab within the order window. We have now moved it directly into each order type.

Whether you are placing a Market, Limit, Super, or Trail order, the option to add a trigger is right there within the same order type. This makes the order placement flow cleaner and more intuitive, particularly for traders who use trigger-based entries regularly. And to place a stop loss order, you need to first decide whether you want to place SL-Limit or SL-Market. Click on the Limit or Market based on your Stop Loss type and then add the trigger price.

We have made an Explainer YouTube video to understand how trailing target works :

For the First Time Ever: Trailing Target is NOW LIVE on Dhan!

Summarising updates to Super Orders

To summarise what is live today, Multiple Targets in Super Order with up to four target levels, Super Trail as a new standalone order type with an industry-first Trailing Target, 365-day validity for the main entry leg of Super Orders, Place a Target / Stop Loss on open positions, Add Target and Stop Loss on Dhan Charts based on drag and drop, and trigger functionality built directly into every order type.

All of this continues to be powered by DEXT, our in-house trade execution platform, which gives us the speed and architectural flexibility to build capabilities like these without compromise.

As always, please try these, share your feedback below, and tell us what you want us to build next. This community has shaped Super Orders from day one, and these new major upgrades are proof of building more right and intuitive tools for you to improve your investing & trading experience.

Happy Trading!

Could API support also be added for converting an existing intraday position into a Super Order?

[RahulDeshpande]

Hey everyone,

A small note alongside the launch.

Honestly, today doesn’t feel like a launch day to me as much as a thank-you day.

A lot of what shipped didn’t come from a planning room. It came from this community — from members who wrote up entire UI specs unprompted, from members who raised the same gap three times until it stuck, from members who replied to each other’s threads and sharpened the ask along the way. Some of you have been at this for over a year. Some of you wrote in once and walked away assuming nothing would come of it. It did.

Worth naming out loud:

What shipped	The members whose threads shaped it	Where the conversation lived
Multiple targets on a single Super Order	@AYUSH, @jaison, @TRN-SRM, @As_it_is_films, @CA.KSB, @ADARSH_Kanojia, @Naresh_Chavda, @U.S, @Itradetriangles, @sri1647, @prashantcafe, @ekveer	Multi-Target spec thread, Scale-out flexibility feedback, TP-by-quantity ask, Feature Request - Super Order, Bracket Order reintroduction request, Multiple TP via API
365-day validity on the entry leg	@Bashab, @bpmittal, @Skyadav, @yogesh86k, @Supriyo_Mondal, @Rajnish_Busa, @Greeshma_Abhilash, @Online_Computer_Serv, @Nilkanthraval	Super-to-Forever gap thread, Exit with GTT thread, Super Order buy leg GTD (Hindi), SETS order placement in GTT, Feedback on Super Order 3-in-1
Target / SL on existing open positions	@ankita176, @Kaal_Bhairav	SL on existing running trade, TP/SL on open position like TradingView
Trailing Target thinking	@RajeshK	37%/63% data thread (trail trigger discussion)

Nothing here is a one-to-one of any single ask. A few things people raised aren’t in this round either, and we know that. But the direction came from this community, and that needed to be said out loud rather than left implicit.

Thank you, genuinely. This stuff matters more than you probably realise.

We look forward to your feedback and suggestions on the feature. Do try it and let us know.

[Goal_Archiver]

Ofcourse each time

[AYUSH]

This is absolutely insane! #Unbelievable Wow, this is crazy!

[ROCKY2]

on which tab it is i cannot see. kindly guide

[Naman]

Hi @ROCKY2

Currently this is rolled out only on Dhan Web & Dhan App. It will be available on rest of the platforms soon.

[PravinJ]

Hi @sri1647 Appreciate the inputs and suggestions.

1. Market and Limit Orders are industry or exchange orders, and collectively take make up of ~70% of all orders - hence important to give these choices upfront. Trigger Order, we made it part of Market and Limit now, which existed as independent one earlier.
2. Trial works on a single order leg, and not multi-order which is base format of Super Order now - hence these are fundamentally different.

[U.S]

Thanks for the updates, Naman sir Glad to see our feedback helped shape V2.0

[U.S]

Thanks for the mention, Rahul sir Happy to see our feedback was helpful

[Ramesh_Ramakrishnan]

I am not able to see multiple target update… Dhan mobile application…

[onkar]

@Naman @RahulDeshpande It seem little confusing when I am trying to sell my existing share like in this screen shot.

I have choose ntpc to sell and choose trail type in option.

Now the price is around 398 but bellow target is around 388 and stop-loss is around 408

Anyone interested to tell how it works?

[deep90s]

Isn’t this confusing? We need to set 3 prices? And if yes how will it work? Mean what does each price do?

From my understanding:

1. Limit = at price we want to sell (it can be market also)
2. Stop loss ? = Confusing isn’t it same as limit? As if we selling from our portfolio limit is acting as SL already.
3. Trigger at which order will be send to exchange and limit is around which stock will be sold.

Also for trail target or sl i see 1 2 5 and so on which does these numbers mean? Percentage? Or price if 1643 is set as limit and trail profit is 1 will it move to 1644?

[Naman]

Hi @sri1647,

• Stop Loss Market orders are not allowed by the exchange for options. I am sure you are already aware of this. Because of this, there is no need for a Trigger sub-option under the Market Order tab for options. You will find the Trigger sub-option available for other eligible segments.

2. On this point: “TP/SL legs should have trigger price for TP/SL limit orders. TP/SL market orders don’t need a separate trigger price.”
   TP/SL orders are sent to the exchange as Market Orders once the desired price is achieved. There is no separate provision of Market or Limit selection within TP/SL legs.

3. On this point: “Trail works on a single order leg, and not multi-order which is the base format of Super Order now — hence these are fundamentally different.”
   Trail, or as we call it, Super Trail Order, is derived from Super Order itself. The core structure of Super Order Entry + Target + Stop-Loss remains intact in Trail Order as well.
   The fundamental difference is that in Super Trail Order, your Stop-Loss and/or Target can also trail with price. In Super Order, you also have the option to place multiple targets. Given this, I am sure you can understand that allowing trailing across multiple targets can create confusion. That is why we have kept Super Order and Trail Order as two separate tabs.

Hope this clarifies.

[Naman]

Hi @Ramesh_Ramakrishnan

This was rolled out in phases. I am sure you must be using iOS phone. The update will be available soon on iPhone as well.

[Naman]

Hi @deep90s & @onkar,

I understand what you are trying to do here. But for this use-case, Super Order or Trail Order will not work.

If you simply want to exit your holding from your portfolio, you can use a normal Market or Limit order.

If you want to place a target and stop loss for your existing holding, then Super Order or Trail Order is not the right option. For that, you should use Forever Order. Super Order and Trail Order are mainly for placing target and stop loss at the time of entering a new trade.

Now, you may ask why this option is shown when a trader or investor is exiting from holdings. This is for users who want to do swing trading using their portfolio holdings.

For example, let’s say you have NTPC shares in your portfolio for long term. You see a short-term selling opportunity and want to exit it for a few days. In this case, you can sell your holding at a price, and also place a plan to buy it back if the price reaches your target or stop loss.

This way, you can take a short-term trade on your holding and later bring it back into your portfolio. Hope this explains clearly.

[Naman]

@sri1647

I mean to say Stop Loss market orders are not allowed for options.

[onkar]

@Naman In this case Dhan needs to provide direct way to add forever AKA GTT from position page, 1st select forever then search stock is lengthy process.

[Naman]

Hi @onkar

If you want to place Target & Stop Loss on position, we have the feature available - In the Manage Position In Detail Page >> Add Target/Position.

Forever Orders, I am suggesting you for holdings from portfolio. Yes, I agree we should have this options directly from holding. Noted.
