Opening a Free Demat Account at a Shares Trading Platform Posted By : Nirmal Soni

Just imagine the share market having traffic signals at its various shares trading terminals for NSE shares, BSE shares, etc! Once you see the red light, you become aware that shares trading at that point of time can be dangerous; so, you wait till the green signal is displayed. You may still take risks by moving along when the orange signal is exhibited. And the traffic personnel are the stock brokers, steering your activities on road, especially at the terminals. Well, the stock market is a totally different field and such signals will never work. It is up to you how you move along. You can create an analogous situation in your mind. But to give yourself the red signal or green signal or orange signal, you will have to be fully equipped with the knowledge about the field. Otherwise you will end up moving forward every time the signal is red!


The changing economy does affect the market; it depends on how you interpret the same immediately and act on it. As you know what you are looking for, you will accordingly find out which NSE shares or which BSE shares will prove lucrative for you.

If you have not yet opened a demat account and you are planning to engage in shares trading, do not get confused or disheartened for not being guided by any one. When online platforms are there, why worry? Just log in to a reliable shares trading platform, especially one that facilitates opening of free demat account in India and one that has a list of the top share brokers of the country. You must be well wondering why you need a demat account. Well, it is a must for investors. You cannot transact money in a bank without a bank account; similar is the case with a demat account. For buying and selling of shares in the Indian share market, you will have to open a demat account in India. Share brokers take care of the transaction aspect. They will even guide you by recommending you potential shares, but it is ultimately you who will take the buying and selling decisions. Of course, there are a section of share brokers who trade on behalf of the investors themselves with their consent. So, open your free demat account at a shares trading portal and give shape to your nurtured dreams of making some extra money!

Now that you have opened your demat account, consider whether you will trade in NSE shares or BSE shares or both. Start the small way, i.e. with small investments. As you are new, investing in bulk may not give you maximum return on your investment unless you know all the pros and cons and are fully informed about the intricacies of the trade. Learn step by step. Once you know that you are confident enough to invest in bulk after the repeat gains, you can go forward. A cautious approach and experience does make one an expert!
