When a stock is placed under surveillance, the exchange introduces specific trading restrictions depending on the surveillance framework and the stage the stock is in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common restriction is higher margin requirements. Normally, you may need to put up 20\u201330% of the trade value as margin. For stocks under surveillance, this can go up to 100% meaning you need the full trade value available in your account before you can buy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In more advanced stages of surveillance, additional restrictions may apply:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Trade-to-trade settlement every trade must result in actual delivery, intraday trading is not allowed<\/li><li>Only existing holders can sell, no fresh buying is permitted<\/li><li>The stock may be shifted to a weekly or monthly trading session instead of daily<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These restrictions are set by the exchange, not by Samco. Samco applies them on the platform as directed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":65,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"ht_kb_category":[2881],"ht_kb_tag":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26497"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ht_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/65"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26497"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26497\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26499,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb\/26497\/revisions\/26499"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26497"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb_category?post=26497"},{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.samco.in\/help-support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht_kb_tag?post=26497"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
