ONLINE TRADING IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY Online of the trading is no different than offline trading. It requires the same amount of risk plus the same amount of skill. One needs to be well-disciplined and goal oriented as these are the main skills that separate winners and losers in the trading world. Trading especially online trading-requires any one to put limits on what they spend and their number of transactions. Also research is vital if one wants to uncover important tips to greatly improve the quality of their online trading portfolio and also to avoid getting bogged by purchasing shares from companies in the midst of a lawsuit or poor management. Online trading can be a good way to make a lot of money or to bring a small residual income to supplement regular income. Of course, one needs money to get started and even after getting started, it will still be a dangerous game loaded with risks. If one is determined and goal oriented, then they can succeed at online trading. If one trades emotionally and fail to be patient and analytical, they are almost guaranteed to fail, even if they get lucky a couple of times. Trading at different exchanges has never been without glitches. It has made a lot of billionaires, as well as bringing many rich people onto roads. It used to be much more difficult in past; one of the most challenging problems was inability of the stock traders to make up something useful of the information generated on per second basis from the ongoing trade. This not only slowed down the trading activity, but also resulted into huge losses. Not all the traders were in a position to make the right decisions at the right time. Online trading tools have

revolutionized the industry; it has made a real difference in the investors earning ability. At the beginning when these tools came into existence, many critics were concerned about their ability to make any impact on the way online trade was carried out. The most important challenge to tackle was that these trading tools were fed into and they didnt do any real time processing. It compromised the ability to make contributions in active trades by the traders. Now, the new tools have changed the trend for good. These tools are connected with the stock exchange.

Before the control on securities under the constitution in 1950, it was a state subject and the Bombay securities contracts (control) act of 1925 used to regulate trading in securities. Under this act, the Mumbai stock exchange was recognized in 1927 and Ahmadabad in 1937. During the war boom, a number of stock exchanges were organized. Soon after it became a central subject, central legislation was proposed and a committee headed by A.D.Gorwala went into the bill for securities regulation. On the basis of the committees recommendations and public discussion, the securities contract (regulation) act became law in 1956. Functions of Stock Exchanges Stock exchanges provide liquidity to the listed companies. By giving quotations to the listed companies, they help trading and raise funds from the market.

ORGANISATION OF A MUTUAL FUND ADVANTAGES OF MUTUAL FUNDS

DARE COLLEGE, KHAMMAM

Page 30

ONLINE TRADING CONCEPT A Mutual Fund is a trust that pools the savings of a number of investors who share a common financial goal. The money thus collected is then invested in capital market instruments such as shares, debentures and other securities. The income earned through these investments and the capital appreciation realised are shared by its unit holders in proportion to the number of units owned by them. Thus a Mutual Fund is the most suitable investment for the common man as it offers an opportunity to invest in a diversified, professionally managed basket of securities at a relatively low cost. The flow chart below describes broadly the working of a mutual fund

Organisation of a Mutal Fund There are many entities involved and the diagram below illustrates the organisational set up of a mutual fund:

DARE COLLEGE, KHAMMAM

Page 31

ONLINE TRADING ADVANTAGES OF INVESTING IN MUTUAL FUNDS Professional Money Management & Research Mutual funds are managed by professional fund managers who regularly monitor market trends and economic trends for taking investment decisions. They also have dedicated research professionals working with them who make an in depth study of the investment option to take an informed decision. Risk Diversification Diversification reduces risk contained in a portfolio by spreading it. It is about not putting all your eggs in one basket. As mutual funds have huge corpuses to invest in, one can be part of a large and well-diversified portfolio with very little investment. Convenience With features like dematerialized account statements, easy subscription and redemption processes, availability of NAVs and performance details through journals, newspapers and updates and lot more; Mutual funds are sure a convenient way of investing. Liquidity One of the greatest advantages of Mutual funds investment is liquidity. Open-ended funds provide option to redeem on demand, which is extremely beneficial especially during rising or falling Markets. Reduction in Costs Mutual funds have a pool of money that they have to invest. So they are often involved in buying and selling of large amounts of securities that will cost much lower than when you invest on your own. Tax Advantages Investment in mutual funds also enjoys several tax advantages. Dividends from Mutual Funds are tax-free in the hands of the investor (This however depends upon changes in Finance Act). Also Capital Gain accrued from Mutual Fund investment for a period of over one year is treated as long term capital appreciation and is tax free.

ONLINE TRADING
Introduction to Online Trading Gone are the days of trading on the floor. Technology has changed the landscape of the stock markets. The look of the stock exchanges has undergone metamorphic changes in the recent years. Prior to online trading, regional stock exchange was playing a very important role in capital markets, as they were local investors. Regional SE, which was unable to interact with other SEs started developing this own screen based trading and connecting to other scrips which were not available with them. This also helped in accessing the quotes and other market information from other stock exchange which proved vital in the functioning of the system as a whole. The trading network is depicted in given below NSE has main computer which is connected through Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) installed at its office. The main computer runs on a fault tolerant STRATUS mainframe computer at the Exchange. Brokers have terminals (identified as the PCs in the given picture) installed at their premises which are connected through VSATs/ leased lines/modems. An investor informs a broker to place an order on his behalf. The broker enters the order through his PC, which runs under Windows NT and sends signal to the satellite via VSAT/leased line/modem. The signal is directed to mainframe computer at NSE via VSAT at NSEs office. A message relating to the order activity is broadcast to the respective member. The order confirmation message is immediately displayed on the PC of the broker. This order matches with the existing passive order(S) otherwise it waits for the active orders to enter the system. On order matching, a message is broadcast to the respective member. TRADING The operation of buying and selling securities on the market. On-line trading denotes buying and selling on the Internet through sites provided by financial brokers like SIMs and banks

DARE COLLEGE, KHAMMAM

ONLINE TRADING OUTCRY SYSTEM The broker has to buy or sell securities for which he has received the orders. For this, the broker or his authorized representatives goes to the stock exchange. This method is called the open outcry system. Basically the brokers shout while buying or selling the securities. The floor of the stock exchange is divided into a number of markets also known as post pit or wing based on particular securities dealt there. In the post pit or wing, the broker using open outcry method makes an offer or bid price. For making the necessary bargain, he quotes his purchase or sale price, also Known as offer or bid price. The dealer, to whom the price is quoted, quotes his own price when the quotation of the dealer suits the broker, he may loose the bargain. If he is not satisfied with the quote price, he may turn to some other dealer. On the close of the bargain, the dealer as well as the broker makes a brief note of the particulars of the deal. Such notes are made on some pad and on it the number of shares, the price agreed upon, the name of the party, what membership number etc., are noted. Disadvantages of outcry system It lacks transparency. The scope of manipulation, speculation and mal practice is more. Signal were more important in the outcry system any member who could not interpret the buy/sell signal correctly often landed himself in disaster situation. In audibility was another disadvantage of the outcry system. Due to the above disadvantages of the outcry system the ZENMONEY has shifted from outcry system to online trading from February 29th 1997.

In the trading ring the space is provided for specified and non-specified sections, the members and their authorized assistants have to wear a badge or carry with them an identity card given by the exchange to enter the trading ring. They carry a sauda book or confirmation memos, duly authorized by the exchange and carry a pen with them. The stock exchanges operations are floor level are technical in nature .Non-members are not permitted to enter in to stock market. Hence various stages have to be completed in executing a transaction at a stock exchange. The steps involved in this method of trading have given below: Choice of broker Sell shares and transact business, have to act through member brokers only. They can also appoint their bankers for this purpose as per the present regulations.

Placement of order: The next step is the prospective investor who wants to buy shares or the investors, who wants to place order for the purchase or sale of securities with a broker. The order is usually placed by telegram, telephone, letter, fax etc or in person. To avoid delay, it is placed generally over the phone. The orders may take any one of the forms such as At Best Orders, Limit Order, Immediate or Cancel Order, Limited Discretionary Order, and Open Order, Stop Loss Order. Execution of order or contract Orders are executed in the trading ring of the BSE. This works from 11:30 to 2.30 P.M on all working days Monday to Friday, and a special one-hour session on Saturday. The members or the authorized assistants have to wear a badge given by the exchange to enter into the trading ring.

Page 42

ONLINE TRADING They carry a sauda Block Book or conformation memos, which are duly authorized by the exchange when the deal is struck; both broker and jobber make a note in their sauda block books. From the sauda book, the contract notes are drawn up and posted to the client. A contract note is written agreement between the broker and his clients for the transaction executed. Drawing Up and Bills Both sale and purchase bills are prepared along with the contract note and it is posted on the same day or the next day. This in a purchase transaction, once the shares are delivered to the client effects payment for the purchases and pays the stamp fees for transfer, a bill is made out giving the total cost of purchase, including other expenses incurred by the broker in the price itself. With this, the process ends. Dematerlization Dematerialization is the process by which physical certificates of an investor are converted to an equipment number of securities in electronic form and credited in the investor account with his DP. In order to dematerialize the certificates, an investor has to first open an account with a DP and then request for the Dematerialization Request Form, which is DP and submit the same along with the Share certificates. The investor has to ensure that he marks Submitted for Dematerialization on the certificates before the shares are handed over to the DP for demat. Dematerialization can only be done to those certificates, which are already registered in your name and belong to the list of securities admitted for Dematerialization at NSDL. Most of the active scrips in the market including all the scrips of S&P CNX NIFTY and BSE SENSEX have already joined NSDL. This list is steadily increasing. Briefly, the process is as follows: after completion of transfer, the investor gets the option to dematerialize such shares. Investors willing to exercise this option sends a Demat request along with the option letter sent by the company to his DP.

DARE COLLEGE, KHAMMAM

Page 43

ONLINE TRADING The company or its R&T agent would confirm the Demat request on its receipt from the DP to reduce risk of loss in transit. Dematerialized shares do not have any distinctive or certificate numbers. These shares are fungible-which means that 100 shares of a security are the same as any other 100 shares of the security. Odd lot shares certificates can also be dematerialized. Dematerialization normally takes about fifteen to thirty days. To get back dematerialized securities in the physical form, request DP for Dematerialization of the same is made Dematerialization is the process of converting electronic shares in to physical shares. Benefits of demat It reduces the risk of bad deliveries, in turn saving the cost and wastage of time associated with follow up for rectification. This has lead to reduction in brokerage to the extent of 0.5% by quite a few brokerage firms. In case of transfer of electronic shares, you save 0.5% in stamp duty. You avoid the cost of courier / notarization. You can receive your bonuses and rights issues into your DA as a direct credit, this eliminating risk of loss in transit. You can also expect a lower interest charge for loans taken against Demat shares as compared to loans against physical shares. There is no lost in transit, thus the overheads of getting a duplicate copy in such circumstances is reduced. RBI has also reduced the minimum margin to 25% for loans against dematerialized securities as against 50% for loans against physical securities.

ONLINE TRADING Formal trading communities A formal trading community consists of a website or network of websites that facilitate and track trade transactions. Some websites, such as the video game trading site Goozex, charge transactional fees per trade, while other similar sites such as GameTZ do not. Key elements of formal trading communities

Transactional tracking Ratings and feedback system Content listing, referencing, and matching

Trading communities There are several community based websites that have a broader scope and lend themselves to a trading environment. 1UP is a website dedicated to the publishing of news, videos, and other related media dealing with video games. There is a growing section of the site though dedicated the trading of games and DVDs on their message boards. Craigslist is a site for posting personal advertisements but many users have found this a less than conventional means of trading goods online with local residents. GameTZ is regarded as being the oldest remaining website dedicated to buying, selling and trading video games on all modern and legacy platforms. IGN is another website dedicated to videogame news and media that also has message boards dedicated to online trading. The distinguishing factors being that IGN has a much larger integrated database of games and DVDs in existence that users can add to their collection lists for trade purposes as well as mark the ones they are playing to lock from trade.

ONLINE TRADING General rules of conduct Some online trading communities have specific rules adopted by the users of that community, and though they can differ most have settled upon a few standard practices: The less experienced trader (usually indicated by their feedback or trade history) sends their half first. It is generally frowned upon by most communities to "thread crap" (A term referring to a user not involved in the pending trade undercutting a trade in progress with either a better deal or reasons for the trade not to take place). While trading any used items online, be sure to include the condition and quality of the product so as the receiver can determine its overall value.

Trading circle A trading circle is a form of online trading designed to facilitate viewing of television series and episodic media. Physical media such as videocassettes, DVDs and CDs are exchanged via mail. Each member agrees to pass an episode on to the next member in a timely fashion, thereby allowing all members of the group to view the series. This communal trading method is also used by special interest clubs. Some of these groups (among many) include anime clubs. Investing online, or self-directed investing, has become the norm for individual investors and traders over the past decade with many, if not all brokers now offering online services with unique trading platforms. Online trading portals Online trading is the investment activity that takes place over the Internet without the physical inclusion of the broker. An end user (investor) has to register with an online trading portal like ICICdirect.com, motilaloswal.com, smartjones.com, and sharekhan.com.

ONLINE TRADING The investor thus gets into an agreement with the firm to trade in different securities according to the terms and conditions listed down on the agreement. Since the servers of the online trading portal are connected all the time to the stock exchanges and designated banks, order processing is done in real time. Investors can also get updates on the trading and check the status of their orders either through e-mail or through the interface. Portal design Harish Malhotra, Chief Technology Officer, Motilal Oswal Securities Limited, says "the portal should be simple to navigate, full of useful and relevant information which is available with the lowest number of clicks, and should be personalized." However a very important aspect is that the systems should be able to interface directly with that of the online exchanges without incompatibility issues. Overview In the past, investors had to call up their brokers and place an order on the telephone. The broker would then enter the order in their system which was linked to trading floors and exchanges. With the advent of the internet, investors can now enter orders directly online, or even trade with other investors via electronic communication networks (ECN). Some orders entered online are still routed through the broker allowing agents to approve or monitor the trades. This step assists in the protection of both the client and brokerage firm from unlawful or incorrect trades which could affect the clients portfolio or the brokers license. Online brokers are most often referred to as discount brokers, due to their lower fees as opposed to full service brokers who also give advice to clients. Before choosing to invest or trade online it is important for investors to research the online brokers that they plan to employ, assuring that they are licensed within their state or provincial jurisdiction. This step will help to protect investors from falling victim to unlawful or illegal securities schemes (e.g. Boiler Room scams). DARE COLLEGE, KHAMMAM Page 61

ONLINE TRADING The USA Federal Government provides practical tips to avoid investment scams via their OnGuard Online website. One tip is "Don't believe everything you read in online newsletters, investing blogs, or bulletin boards. Fraud artists often float false information and "hot tips" as part of their efforts to rip-off investors or manipulate the market for a particular security." They also advise that one "Turn to unbiased sources when researching investments, such as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (via their EDGAR database), your state securities regulator, and securities industry self-regulatory organizations (including the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), Amex, and Nasdaq)." Investors must also fully understand the potential risks of investing without the help of a trained Stock Broker or Investment Advisor. These professionals are experienced both in trade and education and forgoing their advice could be costly. For this reason, most online brokers offer a number of investment tools. Once the above two steps are complete it is dually important to research the sector, business and financial statements of each company whose stock they plan to purchase. This, along with diversification and basic portfolio theory, will assist to mitigate some of the risks associated with the volatility in both the stocks and the stock markets. Once investors have chosen an online brokerage that best suits their needs, they will be provided a trading platform. This platform acts as the hub, allowing investors to purchase and sell securities (fixed income and equities), options, mutual funds, and foreign exchange. Included with the platform are tools to track and monitor securities, portfolios and indices, as well as research tools, realtime streaming quotes and up-to-date news releases; all of which are necessary to trade profitably. Often, more robust research tools are available such as full, in-depth analyst reports and analysis, and customized backtesting and screeners to see how particular investment strategies would have been realized during different historical periods. Some of the popular online brokers include: E*Trade, Scottrade, TD Ameritrade, and Fidelity. Schwab is an example of a hybrid broker combining a traditional, brick-and-mortar brokerage house with discounted trading online, with the usual benefits of both available to customers. Commissions vary from broker to broker, depending on the services included with the account.

FINDINGS
Fluctuations are more in secondary market than any other market. There are more speculators than investors. Information plays a vital role in the secondary market. Previously rolling settlement is T+5 days, now it changed to T+2 days and further it will be changing to T+1 day. It was also observed that many broking houses offering internet trading allow clients to use their conventional system as well just ensure that they do not loose them and this instead of offering e-broking services they becomes service providers. The number of players is increasing at a steady rate and today there are over a dozen of brokerage houses who have opend to offer net trading to their customers and prominent among them are INDIA BULLS, SHARE KHAN, KOTAKSTREET, ICICI DIRECT and GEOJIT. The Bombay stock exchange sensex zoomed past the 7700 barrier for the first time in history to achieve new all time high of 7800 intraday trade and ended at a historic close of 7732 points.

SUGGESTIONS

I recommend the exchange authorities to take steps to educate Investors about their rights and duties. I suggest to the exchange authorities to increase the investors confidences.

I recommend the exchange authorities to be vigilant to curb wide fluctuations of prices. I recommend the speculative pressures are responsible for the wide changes in the price, not attracting the genuine investors to the greater extent towards the market.

I recommend genuine investors are not at all interested in the speculative gain as their investment is based on the future profits, therefore the authorities of the exchange should be more vigilant to curb the speculation.

I recommend the necessary steps should be taken by the exchange to deal with the situations arising due to break down in online trading.

CONCLUSIONS

I concluded things have changed for the better with the ZENMONEY going on-line coupled with endeavor to stream line the whole trading system, things have changed dramatically over the last 3 to 4 years. New and advanced technologies have breached geographical and cultural barriers, and have brought the countrywide market to doorstep.

I concluded in the present scenario to compete with the Brokers would require sound infrastructure and trading as per international standards.

I concluded the introduction of on-line trading would influence the investors resulting in an increase in the business of the exchange. It has helped the brokers handling a vast amount of transactions and this can be an efficient trading, delivering, settlement system with adequate protection to investors. The trading of o ZENMONEY the first day was Rs. 1.8 crores.

I concluded due to invention of online trading there has been greater benefit to the investors as they could sell / buy shares as and when required and that to with online trading.

I concluded the brokers has a greater scope than compared to the earlier times because of invention of online trading.

I concluded he concept of business has changed today, this is a service oriented industry hence the survival would require them to provide the best possible service to the clients.
