Can I place, modify, and cancel orders using the Samco Trade API?

Yes. The Trade API supports the complete order lifecycle — placing new orders, modifying open ones, and cancelling them. This gives you full programmatic control over your positions without any manual steps in between.

The supported order types match what is available on Samco’s web and mobile platforms:

  • Intraday — trades that are squared off within the same trading day
  • Delivery — for taking delivery of shares to your Demat account
  • Carryforward — F&O positions carried to the next trading session
  • AMO (After Market Orders) — orders placed outside regular market hours, queued for execution at the next market open
  • Bracket Orders — orders with a built-in target and stop-loss, used to manage risk automatically at the time of order placement
  • Margin — for leveraged intraday trades

Each order type has its own set of parameters, all documented with working code examples at docs-tradeapi.samco.in.
