@cinderblock , Is there a way to track the actual qty in an Ice Algo?

I deleted the post but, yes. Not directly but a couple of phone calls should suffice.

I thought the Volume (Traded Vol) will give away the actual volume, despite volume masking at Bid/Ask. Of course, this will not sniff out 1 or many accounts involved in the operation.

The volume traded will tell you how much is already traded and not how much is remaining. If you know roughly how much remains of the "iceberg" then it helps

Pretty fast recovery in Bajaj finance, not only ruined the short, but also jeopardized possibility of buying for portfolio at lower level 2100-2050.

25 years of Infy listing today. An investment of 9500 then would have become 6.5 crore today (including all corporate action - dividends, splits, bonus, rights etc.). (Source CNBC channel.)

Yesterday morning when I saw weakness in the counter, shorted it keeping previous day's closing price as SL. Then carried it for today. Today, kept yesterday's closing price as SL. I was expecting it to go down and complete ATR to book the profit... but SL hit.
