OctaFX, and most other CFD platforms, are the counterparty to every trade you take on them.
+Essentially, the platform makes money only when you lose. And trading with extreme leverage of 100 to 500 times your capital is a sure way to lose money.
+I had written about CFDs sometime back. We recently spoke about this in The Daily Brief by Markets by Zerodha as well.</description></item><item><title>Altert Triggers Order feature on Kite</title><link>https://nithinkamath.me/blog/alert-triggers-order-feature-on-kite/</link><pubDate>Tue, 17 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://nithinkamath.me/blog/alert-triggers-order-feature-on-kite/</guid><description>Alert triggers an order (ATO) was on our to-do list for a long time, and we just launched it on Kite web.
 ATO orders allow you to execute trades based on If This Then That conditions.
 For example, buy Reliance if Nifty 50 crosses 25000 or execute a nifty short straddle (sell a call and put option of the same strike) if Nifty 50 falls to 24975.
 ATO will soon be available on Kite mobile.</description></item><item><title>What changes due to a settlemet holiday?</title><link>https://nithinkamath.me/blog/what-changes-at-zerodha-due-to-settlement-holiday/</link><pubDate>Mon, 16 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://nithinkamath.me/blog/what-changes-at-zerodha-due-to-settlement-holiday/</guid><description>Today is a settlement holiday, and thus, settlements of funds and stocks don&amp;rsquo;t happen. This happens when banks in Maharashtra are closed, but trading on exchanges is open.
