**Note:**&#x20;

* If you have multiple orders for the same instrument, the Stop Loss and Take Profit values will apply to the most recently executed order.
*

```
While **creating a pending order** and attaching **SL/TP values**, make sure to select the correct **TIF (Time in Force)** option — this determines **how long the order stays active**.
```

```
**🏷️ Time in Force (TIF) Options:**

* **DAY** – The order remains active **until the end of the trading day**. If not triggered, it will be **automatically cancelled**.
* **GTC (Good Till Cancelled)** – The order stays active **indefinitely** until you **manually cancel it**.
* **GTD (Good Till Date)** – The order stays active **until a specific date/time** you set. If not triggered by then, it is **automatically cancelled**.
```
