Pending Order Meaning<\/strong><\/span>
A Buy or Sell order placed but which is yet to be executed is called pending order. Once an order is executed, it is a trade.
Pending Order – Buy Limit Order Example<\/strong><\/span>
A Buy limit order where the buy price would be lower than the Current Market Price would have an order status as\u00a0pending since\u00a0the Buy price and the Current Market Price do\u00a0not match. Once they match, the pending order will be executed. The execution of the order can be partial or complete depending on the quantities matched.
For Example, If you place an order to Buy Reliance @ Rs. 1015 but the Current Market Price is Rs. 1021 then, the order will show as pending unless the Market Price falls to or below Rs. 1015.
Pending Order – Sell\u00a0Limit Order Example<\/strong><\/span>
Similarly, a Sell Limit Order where sell price is more than the Current Market Price would be pending until the prices match.
For Example, If you place an order to SELL\u00a0Reliance @ Rs. 1015 but the Current Market Price is Rs. 1001 then, the order will show as pending unless the Market Price rises\u00a0to or above\u00a0Rs. 1015.
This happens because exchanges follow a price time priority system for matching orders against each other.
Brokerage<\/a> on Pending\u00a0Orders<\/strong><\/span>
You will not be charged brokerage for pending order unless it is executed either partially or wholly.
An IOC (Immediate or Cancel) order will never be a pending order. It will either be executed or cancelled depending on the price entered.
