DNSE orders and DCA
How Fastbot splits board lots and odd lots for you, the difference between MP and LO orders, trading hours, and the T+2 rule when selling.
Vietnamese stocks come with rules crypto does not have. Fastbot handles the awkward part — lot splitting — for you, but it helps to understand it so the confirm screen makes sense.
Two order types
- ⚡ Market (MP) — fills now at the best price.
- 🎯 Limit (LO) — you name a price and wait.
Fastbot🔵 Buy/sell stocksBoard lots and odd lots — Fastbot splits them
Vietnamese exchanges only accept market orders in multiples of 100 shares. Buying 150 shares would normally mean placing two orders yourself. Fastbot does it for you and spells out each part before you agree:
Fastbot🔵 Buy/sell stocksEnter shares, or enter an amount
Choose 💵 VND amount and type 5000000 — Fastbot takes the current price and works out how many shares that buys. Choose 🔢 Shares to enter the count directly.
Trading hours
Orders only go through during continuous matching:
| Session | Hours |
|---|---|
| Morning | 9:15 – 11:30 |
| Afternoon | 13:00 – 14:30 |
Outside those hours Fastbot names the current session and sends nothing — for example "Outside continuous matching (Lunch break)". There is no trading on weekends or public holidays.
Selling waits for T+2
Shares you just bought only settle after two business days. Fastbot counts only what is sellable now, so it will not place a sell the exchange would reject. If you ask to sell more than has settled, it shows you what you hold and what is sellable.
DCA on DNSE
Create a plan just like on any other exchange; the only difference is that amounts are in VND. See Create a DCA plan.
One important difference: on DNSE, Fastbot only records what actually filled. When the order goes out you get a "buy order sent" message, then a second message with the real quantity and price once the exchange answers:
Fastbotbot5512340)
▸ Odd lot 70 shares LO @ 28,500 VND (id: 5512341)
Waiting to fill — the bot reports back when the exchange answers.That way your plan always matches the real order book at DNSE, even when an odd lot fails to fill and the exchange cancels it at end of day.
Re-pricing a pending order
🇻🇳 DNSE → 📋 Pending, tap an order, then ✏️ Edit price. Only LO orders can be re-priced (an MP order has no price) and only during continuous matching. Fastbot cancels the old order and places a new one at your price, rounding it to the HOSE tick.
