I sold 100 Kamath Hotels Shares @ 96 and put a Stop Loss but the Shares suddenly Jumped and went on to had a upper circuit.
And i wasnt able to buy the same
My Broker told me that i will have to pay some penalty for it

Is it a normal thing that happen??

Pls reply at earliest!

AS PER YOUR DESCRIPTION, I CAME TO KNOW THAT IT WAS SHORT SELLING

FIRST : SELL (AT HIGHEST RATE)

SECOND : BUY (AT LOWEST RATE)

BUT IN YOUR CASES MARKET AND THAT PARTICULAR SCRIPT HAS GONE UP AND YOU HAVE NOT BOUGHT ANY SHARES ............? DIDN'T YOU?

IN THIS CASE ON THE T+2 (10:AM)BASIS THE BROKER WILL TAKE CARE AND BUY FROM STOCK MARKET THROUGH AUCTION AND 100 SHARES WILL BE YOURS

BUT ON THE T+2 YOU CAN MAKE PROFIT OR LOSS DEPEDNING UPON THE SCRIPT VALUE , Rs 93 you get profit Rs 98 you will loss

AND YOUR SHARES WILL BE BOUGHT BY "ADDING BORKERAGE " AND "INTERST CHARGES "


REGRADS

Tanx for the reply

But in practical does anyone actually get profit by such auction

03 April 2011 Yes one can get profit on auction too. But charges made by the broker r so hefty that it offsets ur profits.
