Kite order nudges explained

A Kite order nudge is a non-blocking notification that Zerodha ’s Kite trading platform surfaces on the order window when the order, or the instrument it targets, matches a risk pattern or a market-structure condition that the exchange or Zerodha wants the client to see before the order leaves for the exchange. The nudge informs; in almost every case it does not block. You read it, you acknowledge it, and the order proceeds. This guide covers the six order-placement nudges traders meet most: the order-slicing nudge on large F&O orders, the surveillance-measures-and-risks nudge, the promoter-pledged-shares nudge, the Enhanced Surveillance Measure (ESM) nudge, the price-above-or-below-LTP nudge, and the illiquid-contract alert on far or thin derivatives.
