Step 1: Finding a Broker

A broker acts as an intermediary or a mediator between the investor and the stock exchange. The work of a broker is transfer of order electronically from the investor to the exchange. Any transaction that occurs in stock market is taken care by the stock exchange. Normally in India the stock exchange for trading is active from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM. However, from 1st October, 2018 SEBI has decided to extend the trading hours till 11:55 pm in a move to attract the investors dealing in Indian products on overseas exchanges. The brokers should be selected on the following basis:

Step 2: Opening Account with the Broker

Having selected a broker, it is time to open an online trading account with the broker. A broker always opens a trading account in the name of the investor/ client only if he/she is satisfied about the credit worthiness of the client. If the broker feels satisfied with the client, he/she will open the account by writing the client’s name in the broker’s book. The minimum requirement for opening a trading account is PAN card, and bank account failing to which the account cannot be opened.

Step 3: Placing the Order

After the account is opened successfully a notification will be provided via email or message. Then the investor can begin the trading as per his/her wish. The trading or investment is done by purchasing a specified number of shares of a particular company. The order when placed is incomplete until the order status shows complete. Different online trading platforms follow different symbols to mark the order placing. Order can also be placed via a telephonic call with the broker. There are different types of orders:

Buy Orders

Buy orders are placed when the price of the share is expected to rise. This can be understood by simple Demand-Supply curve. As the demand increases people buy more and the price gradually rises. The same logic applies in the share market. As the price of the share rises, the investors feel the price will further rise and they buy the shares. However, the amount of quantity is fully dependent on the availability of funds and risk associated with the particular share.
