Before connecting to BOW Connection please refer to the below scenarios for a proper understanding on how ArthaChitra works with the BOW API. Please do note the below list is not exhaustive. There may be scenarios in addition to what listed below

• The BOW Connection depends on components that supports 32 bits environment only. In case you are on a 64 bit OS, then please run the 32 bit version of ArthaChitra.
• For part filled orders the BOW API's Order list provides the filled quantity as the total quantity value. If a part filled order is modified and you refresh the order book, the order will display the remaining quantity. The same will be updated when a real-time notification comes in (when you modify the order etc).
• For FnO scrips ArthaChitra handles the order quantity in terms of number of contracts and NOT in lot size. For example if you are placing an order to buy 1 lot of Nifty futures then append the quantity as 1 (one) instead of 50 (fifty) which is the current lot size. Similarly the FnO quantity is displayed in terms of number of contracts across the views.
• The BOW Connection downloads the master instruments which can be around 100MB in size. This can take considerable time depending on your net speed. You have the option of downloading it or not while entering the password during login. Just check/uncheck the download master checkbox as needed.
• The BOW API does not supports OCO tags (for Cash and Margin ProductType). Thus if you submit any OCO order the OCO simulation will be evaluated locally. If you get disconnected the OCO orders will not canceled automatically.
