Trading. The Before and After


For any trade to be successful, it's important to be diligent not just while you trade but also before and after each trade is executed.

Before Trading

• Decide your investment objectives and risk appetite
• Do study information on Company that you choose to invest in
• Check the information on company by going through Equity Research
• Reports available on Exchange website
• Do not be misled by market rumours or advertisements that promise high returns

After Trading

• Insist on receiving contract note issued within 24 hrs. from your broker
• Verify your trades at www.nseindia.com
• Register your mobile or email for trade alerts 
• Insist on periodical statement of accounts. In case of any discrepancies bring it to the attention of your broker immediately.
• Make sure that all payments and securities transfer are between you and the Broker only and not any other third parties

Avoiding the instant wealth trap

It's easy to get lured with promises of unusually high returns within a short time. As a smart investor you need to exercise common sense and caution. Here are some simple things to guard against 

• Promise of unrealistically High Return
• Promise to invest in opportunities based on secretive information
• Getting euphoric about certain companies and investment
• Your involvement not required in decision to buy or sell
• Guaranteed high returns (like double in three months)
• Promise of no risk, complete capital protection
• Statements like life time opportunity requiring you to sign papers and part with money immediately
• Overly consistent returns even during adverse market conditions

Power of Attorney – 

• Should be a tool that benefits you and not tie you down.
• Power of Attorney is a legal document giving legal authority to another person to operate your account as per the instructions contained in the Power of Attorney.
• PoA is not mandated by SEBI or the Exchange.
• In case you choose to give PoA for convenience and hassle-free transactions through your Stock Broker, please make sure that you give PoA in the name of a SEBI registered Stock Broker only. Do not give PoA in the name of any other person like employees, dealers, associate entities etc.
• PoA should be generally given for a limited period. The period should never be left open-ended in the hand of your broker or member.
• The choice of renewal or otherwise should be exercised after reviewing the manner in which PoA has been put to use by the PoA holder.
