What is stock market
A stock market, equity market or share market is the aggregation of buyers and sellers (a
loose network of economic transactions, not a physical facility or discrete entity)
of stocks (also called shares), which represent ownership claims on businesses; these may
include securities listed on a public stock exchange, as well as stock that is only traded
privately. Examples of the latter include shares of private companies which are sold
to investors through equity crowdfundingplatforms. Stock exchanges list shares of
common equity as well as other security types, e.g. corporate bonds and convertible
bonds.

Size of the market


Stocks are categorized in various ways. One way is by the country where the company is domiciled. For
example, Nestlé and Novartis are domiciled in Switzerland, so they may be considered as part of
the Swiss stock market, although their stock may also be traded on exchanges in other countries, for
example, as American depository receipts (ADRs) on U.S. stock markets.
As of 2017, the size of the world stock market (total market capitalization) was about US$79.225 trillion.
By country, the largest market was the United States (about 34%), followed by Japan (about 6%) and
the United Kingdom (about 6%) These numbers increased in 2013.
As of 2015, there are a total of 60 stock exchanges in the world with a total market capitalization of $69
trillion. Of these, there are 16 exchanges with a market capitalization of $1 trillion or more, and they
account for 87% of global market capitalization. Apart from the Australian Securities Exchange, these 16
exchanges are based in one of three continents: North America, Europe and Asia.
Stock exchange
A stock exchange is an exchange (or bourse) where stock brokers and traders can buy and
sell shares of stock, bonds, and other securities. Many large companies have their stocks listed on a stock
exchange. This makes the stock more liquid and thus more attractive to many investors. The exchange
may also act as a guarantor of settlement. Other stocks may be traded "over the counter" (OTC), that is,
through a dealer. Some large companies will have their stock listed on more than one exchange in
different countries, so as to attract international investors.
Stock exchanges may also cover other types of securities, such as fixed interest securities (bonds) or (less
frequently) derivatives which are more likely to be traded OT
Importance

Even in the days before perestroika, socialism was never a monolith. Within the Communist

10
countries, the spectrum of socialism ranged from the quasi-market, quasi-syndicalist system of
Yugoslavia to the centralized totalitarianism of neighboring Albania. One time I asked Professor von
Mises, the great expert on the economics of socialism, at what point on this spectrum of statism
would he designate a country as "socialist" or not. At that time, I wasn't sure that any definite
criterion existed to make that sort of clear-cut judgment. And so I was pleasantly surprised at the
clarity and decisiveness of Mises's answer. "A stock market," he answered promptly.
"A stock market is crucial to the existence of capitalism and private property. For it means that
there is a functioning market in the exchange of private titles to the means of production. There
can be no genuine private ownership of capital without a stock market: there can be no true
socialism if such a market is allowed to exist.

Function and purpose


The stock market is one of the most important ways for companies to raise money, along with debt
markets which are generally more imposing but do not trade publicly.[44]This allows businesses to be
publicly traded, and raise additional financial capital for expansion by selling shares of ownership of the
company in a public market. The liquiditythat an exchange affords the investors enables their holders to
quickly and easily sell securities. This is an attractive feature of investing in stocks, compared to other less
liquid investments such as property and other immoveable assets.
History has shown that the price of stocks and other assets is an important part of the dynamics of
economic activity, and can influence or be an indicator of social mood. An economy where the stock
market is on the rise is considered to be an up-and-coming economy. The stock market is often
considered the primary indicator of a country's economic strength and development. [45]
Rising share prices, for instance, tend to be associated with increased business investment and vice versa.
Share prices also affect the wealth of households and their consumption. Therefore, central banks tend
to keep an eye on the control and behavior of the stock market and, in general, on the smooth operation
of financial systemfunctions. Financial stability is the raison d'être of central banks.[46]
Exchanges also act as the clearinghouse for each transaction, meaning that they collect and deliver the
shares, and guarantee payment to the seller of a security. This eliminates the risk to an individual buyer
or seller that the counterparty could default on the transaction.[47]
The smooth functioning of all these activities facilitates economic growth in that lower costs and
enterprise risks promote the production of goods and services as well as possibly employment. In this
way the financial system is assumed to contribute to increased prosperity, although some controversy
exists as to whether the optimal financial system is bank-based or market-based.[48]
Recent events such as the Global Financial Crisis have prompted a heightened degree of scrutiny of the
impact of the structure of stock markets (called market microstructure), in particular to the stability of
the financial system and the transmission of systemic risk.
Capital market

11
A capital market is a financial market in which long-term debt (over a year) or equity-
backed securities are bought and sold.[6] Capital markets channel the wealth of savers to those who can
put it to long-term productive use, such as companies or governments making long-term
investments.[a] Financial regulators like the Bank of England(BoE) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) oversee capital markets to protect investors against fraud, among other duties.
Modern capital markets are almost invariably hosted on computer-based electronic trading platforms;
most can be accessed only by entities within the financial sector or the treasury departments of
governments and corporations, but some can be accessed directly by the public. As an example, in the
United States, any American citizen with an internet connection can create an account
with TreasuryDirect and use it to buy bonds in the primary market, though sales to individuals form only a
tiny fraction of the total volume of bonds sold. Various private companies provide browser-based
platforms that allow individuals to buy shares and sometimes even bonds in the secondary markets.
There are many thousands of such systems, most serving only small parts of the overall capital markets.
Entities hosting the systems include stock exchanges, investment banks, and government departments.
Physically, the systems are hosted all over the world, though they tend to be concentrated in financial
centres like London, New York, and Hong Kong.
Type of market
primary market:-
When a company wants to raise money for long-term investment, one of its first decisions is whether to
do so by issuing bonds or shares. If it chooses shares, it avoids increasing its debt, and in some cases the
new shareholders may also provide non-monetary help, such as expertise or useful contacts. On the
other hand, a new issue of shares will dilute the ownership rights of the existing shareholders, and if they
gain a controlling interest, the new shareholders may even replace senior managers. From an investor's
point of view, shares offer the potential for higher returns and capital gains if the company does well.
Conversely, bonds are safer if the company does poorly, as they are less prone to severe falls in price, and
in the event of bankruptcy, bond owners may be paid something, while shareholders will receive nothing.
When a company raises finance from the primary market, the process is more likely to involve face-to-
face meetings than other capital market transactions. Whether they choose to issue bonds or
shares,[d] companies will typically enlist the services of an investment bank to mediate between
themselves and the market. A team from the investment bank often meets with the company's senior
managers to ensure their plans are sound. The bank then acts as an underwriter, and will arrange for a
network of brokers to sell the bonds or shares to investors. This second stage is usually done mostly
through computerized systems, though brokers will often phone up their favored clients to advise them
of the opportunity. Companies can avoid paying fees to investment banks by using a direct public
offering, though this is not a common practice as it incurs other legal costs and can take up considerable
management time.[13][16]

Secondary market

12
An electronic trading platform being used at the Deutsche Börse. Most 21st century capital market transactions are
executed electronically; sometimes a human operator is involved, and sometimes unattended computer systems
execute the transactions, as happens in algorithmic trading.

Most capital market transactions take place on the secondary market. On the primary market, each security can be
sold only once, and the process to create batches of new shares or bonds is often lengthy due to regulatory
requirements. On the secondary markets, there is no limit to the number of times a security can be traded, and the
process is usually very quick. With the rise of strategies such as high-frequency trading, a single security could in
theory be traded thousands of times within a single hour.[e] Transactions on the secondary market do not directly
raise finance, but they do make it easier for companies and governments to raise finance on the primary market, as
investors know that if they want to get their money back quickly, they will usually be easily able to re-sell their
securities. Sometimes, however, secondary capital market transactions can have a negative effect on the primary
borrowers: for example, if a large proportion of investors try to sell their bonds, this can push up the yields for
future issues from the same entity. An extreme example occurred shortly after Bill Clinton began his first term as
President of the United States; Clinton was forced to abandon some of the spending increases he had promised in
his election campaign due to pressure from the bond markets [source?]. In the 21st century, several governments
have tried to lock in as much as possible of their borrowing into long-dated bonds, so they are less vulnerable to
pressure from the markets. Following the financial crisis of 2007–08, the introduction of quantitative easing further
reduced the ability of private actors to push up the yields of government bonds, at least for countries with a central
bank able to engage in substantial open market operations.[13][15][16][17]

A variety of different players are active in the secondary markets. Individual investors account for a small
proportion of trading, though their share has slightly increased; in the 20th century it was mostly only a few
wealthy individuals who could afford an account with a broker, but accounts are now much cheaper and accessible
over the internet. There are now numerous small traders who can buy and sell on the secondary markets using
platforms provided by brokers which are accessible via web browsers. When such an individual trades on the
capital markets, it will often involve a two-stage transaction. First they place an order with their broker, then the
broker executes the trade. If the trade can be done on an exchange, the process will often be fully automated. If a
dealer needs to manually intervene, this will often mean a larger fee. Traders in investment banks will often make
deals on their bank's behalf, as well as executing trades for their clients. Investment banks will often have a division
(or department) called "capital markets": staff in this division try to keep aware of the various opportunities in both
the primary and secondary markets, and will advise major clients accordingly. Pension and sovereign wealth
funds tend to have the largest holdings, though they tend to buy only the highest grade (safest) types of bonds and
shares, and some of them do not trade all that frequently. According to a 2012 Financial Times article, hedge funds
are increasingly making most of the short-term trades in large sections of the capital market (like the UK and US
stock exchanges), which is making it harder for them to maintain their historically high returns, as they are
increasingly finding themselves trading with each other rather than with less sophisticated investors.

There are several ways to invest in the secondary market without directly buying shares or bonds. A common
method is to invest in mutual fundsor exchange-traded funds. It is also possible to buy and sell derivatives that are
based on the secondary market; one of the most common type of these is contracts for difference – these can
provide rapid profits, but can also cause buyers to lose more money than they originally invested.

Bombay Stock Exchange


13
The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) is the first and largest securities market in India and was established
in 1875 as the Native Share and Stock Brokers' Association. Based in Mumbai, India, the BSE lists close
to 6,000 companies and is one of the largest exchanges in the world, along with the New York Stock
Exchange (NYSE), NASDAQ, London Stock Exchange Group, Japan Exchange Group, and Shanghai
Stock Exchange.

The BSE has helped develop the country's capital markets, including the retail debt market, and helped
grow the Indian corporate sector.

Breaking Down Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE)


In 1995, the BSE switched from an open-floor to an electronic trading system. There are more than a
dozen electronic exchanges in the U.S. alone with the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Nasdaq
being the most widely known. Today electronic systems dominates the financial industry overall, offering
fewer errors, faster execution, and better efficiency than traditional open-outcry trading systems.

Securities that the BSE lists includes stocks, stock futures, stock options, index futures, index options,
and weekly options. The BSE's overall performance is measured by the Sensex, an index of 30 of the
BSE's largest stocks covering 12 sectors.

Other Major International Stock Exchanges


In addition to the BSE major international stock exchanges include:

14
The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). NYSE is considered the largest equities-based exchange in the
world, based on the total market capitalization of its listed securities. NYSE was formerly a private
organization but became public in 2005 after it acquired the electronic trading exchange Archipelago.

Nasdaq. This is a global electronic marketplace and the benchmark index for U.S. technology stocks.
National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) created Nasdaq in 1971 to enable investors to trade
securities on a rapid, computerized, and transparent system. Today “Nasdaq” also refers to the Nasdaq
Composite, an index of more than 3,000 listed technology that include Apple, Google, Microsoft, Oracle,
Amazon, Intel, and Amgen.

National Stock Exchange

DEFINITION of National Stock Exchange


The National Stock Exchange, abbreviated NSX, was the first stock exchange in America to be completely
electronically automated. It began life as the Cincinnati Stock Exchange in Ohio in 1885, moved to Chicago in 1995,
changed its name in 2003, and was taken over by the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in early 2017. It is now
known as the NYSE National and operates as a subsidiary of NYSE Holdings.

BREAKING DOWN National Stock Exchange


The National Stock Exchange was originally founded in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1885, at that stage known as the
Cincinnati Stock Exchange. At that time, its main business listings were in railroads, banks and insurance
companies. One hundred years later, still known as the Cincinnati Exchange, it became the first national stock
exchange to operate electronically without a trading floor (NASDAQ was not yet listed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission).

It moved to Chicago in 1995, and changed its name in 2003 to the National Stock Exchange. It later moved again, to
New Jersey, in 2006. The NSX ceased trading in May 2014 due to low trading volume; it resumed trade about a year
and a half later. Subsequently, it stated in December 2016 that it was once again about to stop trading due to low

15
volumes. It accounted for just a 0.01% market share of US equity trading at that stage. The NYSE then bought the
exchange and changed its name to the NYSE National. Although the intention was ultimately to continue trading, it
ceased doing so in February 2017 after the NYSE transaction was finalized. The NYSE announced that the NYSE
National would eventually transition to the NYSE Pillar platform, a relatively new integrated trading technology
platform. It started trading again, on this platform, in the second quarter of 2018. It is now a trading-only (not a
listing) venue.

The term "National Stock Exchange" can also refer to stock markets in India or Australia. In India, abbreviated as
NSE, it is the main stock market — see National Stock Exchange of India. In Australia, it is the second-largest listing
exchange, and specializes in growth companies, and also carries the abbreviation of NSX

A Bull Market
This is when the market is showing confidence. Indicators of confidence are prices going up, market indices like the NASDAQ
go up too. Number of shares traded is also high and even the number of companies entering the stock market show that the
market is confident.

These are bullish characteristics. If there is a run of bullish days then you may hear the market is a bull market. Technically
though a bull market is a rise in value of the market of at least 20%. The huge rise of the Dow and NASDAQ during the tech
boom is a good example of a bull market.

A Bear Market
A bear market is the opposite to a bull. If the markets fall by more than 20% then we have entered a bear market. A bear
market is a market showing a lack of confidence. Prices hover at the same price then go down, indices fall too and volumes are
stagnant. In a bear market people are waiting for the bulls to start driving the prices up again. However, a bear is a very
tentative bull or a bull that is asleep.

Market Timing
Some people believe that by recognizing the different kinds of markets you can make money on stock trading and investing.
The basic idea behind buying stocks is to buy low and sell high. This will give you a profit. So to make money you buy stocks in
a bear market when stock prices are low and sell stocks in a bull market when stock prices are high. However, knowing when is
the best time to buy and sell is not that simple.

Unfortunately, most investors are often too emotional and they sell in a bear market because they are scared to lose money
and they buy in a bull market because they don’t want to miss the big gains. You can make some money that way but it also
explains why many investors lose money by trying to time the market. The safest way to help prevent yourself from making
these mistakes is to buy stocks and invest in the market by regularly making fixed size investments, and holding your
investments for a long period of time.

What Is a Financial Instrument


Financial instruments are assets that can be traded, or they can also be seen as packages of capital that may be
traded. Most types of financial instruments provide efficient flow and transfer of capital all throughout the world's
investors. These assets can be cash, a contractual right to deliver or receive cash or another type of financial
instrument, or evidence of one's ownership of an entity

Understanding Financial Instruments


Financial instruments can be real or virtual documents representing a legal agreement involving any kind of
monetary value. Equity-based financial instruments represent ownership of an asset. Debt-based financial
instruments represent a loan made by an investor to the owner of the asset.

16
Types of Financial Instruments
Financial instruments may be divided into two types: cash instruments and derivative instruments.

Cash Instruments

 The values of cash instruments are directly influenced and determined by the markets. These can be
securities that are easily transferable.
 Cash instruments may also be deposits and loans agreed upon by borrowers and lenders.

Derivative Instruments

 The value and characteristics of derivative instruments are based on the vehicle’s underlying components,
such as assets, interest rates, or indices.
 These can be over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives or exchange-traded derivatives.

Types of Asset Classes of Financial Instruments


Financial instruments may also be divided according to an asset class, which depends on whether they are debt-
based or equity-based.

Debt-Based Financial Instruments


Short-term debt-based financial instruments last for one year or less. Securities of this kind come in the form of T-
bills and commercial paper. Cash of this kind can be deposits and certificates of deposit (CDs).

Exchange-traded derivatives under short-term, debt-based financial instruments can be short-term interest rate
futures. OTC derivatives are forward rate agreements.

Long-term debt-based financial instruments last for more than a year. Under securities, these are bonds. Cash
equivalents are loans. Exchange-traded derivatives are bond futures and options on bond futures. OTC derivatives
are interest rate swaps, interest rate caps and floors, interest rate options, and exotic derivatives.

Equity-Based Financial Instruments


Securities under equity-based financial instruments are stocks. Exchange-traded derivatives in this category
include stock options and equity futures. The OTC derivatives are stock options and exotic derivatives.

Special Considerations
There are no securities under foreign exchange. Cash equivalents come in spot foreign exchange. Exchange-traded
derivatives under foreign exchange are currency futures. OTC derivatives come in foreign exchange options, outright
forwards, and foreign exchange swaps.

Key Takeaways

 A financial instrument is a real or virtual document representing a legal agreement involving any kind of
monetary value.
 Financial instruments may be divided into two types: cash instruments and derivative instruments.
 Financial instruments may also be divided according to an asset class, which depends on whether they are
debt-based or equity-based.
 Foreign exchange instruments comprise a third, unique type of financial instrument.

Future contract

What is a Futures Contract


A futures contract is a legal agreement to buy or sell a particular commodity or asset at a predetermined price at a specified time
in the future. Futures contracts are standardized for quality and quantity to facilitate trading on a futures exchange. The buyer of

17
a futures contract is taking on the obligation to buy the underlying asset when the futures contract expires. The seller of the
futures contract is taking on the obligation to provide the underlying asset at the expiration date.

"Futures contract" and "futures" refer to the same thing. For example, you might hear somebody say they bought oil
futures, which means the same thing as an oil futures contract. When someone says "futures contract," they're
typically referring to a specific type of future, such as oil, gold, bonds or S&P 500 index futures. The term "futures" is
more general, and is often used to refer to the whole market, such as "They're a futures trader."

OPTION

What Is an Option
Options are financial instruments that are derivatives or based on underlying securities such as stocks. An options
contract offers the buyer the opportunity to buy or sell—depending on the type of contract they hold—the underlying
asset. Unlike futures, the holder is not required to buy or sell the asset if they choose not to.

 Call options allow the holder to buy the asset at a stated price within a specific timeframe.
 Put options allow the holder to sell the asset at a stated price within a specific timeframe.

Each option contract will have a specific expiration date by which the holder must exercise their option. The stated
price on an option is known as the strike price. Options are typically bought and sold through online or retail brokers.

Forward Contract

A forward contract is a customized contract between two parties to buy or sell an asset at a specified price on a
future date. A forward contract can be used for hedging or speculation, although its non-standardized nature makes
it particularly apt for hedging.

Swaps

A swap is a derivative contract through which two parties exchange the cash flows or liabilities from two different
financial instruments. Most swaps involve cash flows based on a notional principal amount such as a loan or bond,
although the instrument can be almost anything. Usually, the principal does not change hands. Each cash
flow comprises one leg of the swap. One cash flow is generally fixed, while the other is variable and based on a
benchmark interest rate, floating currency exchange rate or index price.The most common kind of swap is
an interest rate swap. Swaps do not trade on exchanges, and retail investors do not generally engage in swaps.

18
Rather, swaps are over-the-counter contracts primarily between businesses or financial institutions that are
customized to the needs of both parties.

Common Terms used in Indian Share market


Following are Indian stock market terminologies which are very commonly
used while trading and investing in Indian stock Market
Share Trading - Buying and selling of shares is called as share trading.

which it remains at the time of closing the market at 3:30 PM
Transaction - One complete cycle of buying and selling of shares is considered as one
Transaction.

Squaring off - This term is used to complete one transaction. Means if you buy then
have to sell (means square off) and if you short sell then you have to buy (means
square off).

Limit Order - In limit order, the buying or selling price has to be mentioned and when
the share price comes to that price then the order will get executed with the price
mentioned by the trader.

Market Order - When you put buy or sell price at market rate then the price get
executes at the current rate of market. The market order get immediately executed at
the current available price.

Stop Loss Orders - As the name indicates the stop loss orders are used to stop or limit
the losses in the share market.
Stop loss orders are limit price set by traders at which the order will automatically enter
or exit the trade.
The stop loss order is placed below the current market price of the stock to stop the
loss in buy position and above the current market price to stop the loss in short sell

position.
Margin Trading - Margin amount is the amount given by broker for day trading. The
trading done using margin amount is called as margin trading.If you use margin amount

then the trades has to be closed on the same day.


Alpha stock - A weighted measure of how much a stock has risen or fallen over a
certain period, usually a year. Generally, more emphasis is placed on recent activity by
assigning higher weights to it than those assigned to earlier movements. This helps to
give a return figure that has a greater focus on the most current period and is a more
relevant measure for short-term analysis.

19
f the stock was up over the period, it will have a positively weighted alpha. An
unchanged stock price has a small weighted alpha. A stock whose price has fallen over
the period will have a negatively weighted alpha. Technical analysts use this measure to
identify companies that have shown a strong trend over the past year and, more
specifically, to focus their attention on companies whose momentum is building.
Beta Stock - Beta is a measure of a stock's volatility in relation to the market. By definition, the
market has a beta of 1.0, and individual
stocks are ranked according to how much they deviate from the market. A stock that swings more
than the market over time has a beta above
1.0. If a stock moves less than the market, the stock's beta is less than 1.0. High-beta stocks are
supposed to be riskier but provide a
potential for higher returns; low-beta stocks pose less risk but also lower returns.

Bull Phase - when the market keeps going up it is called as Bull phase or cycle.

Bear Phase - when the market keeps going down it is called as Bear phase or cycle.

Securities and Exchange Board of India

The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) is the regulator for the securities
market in India. It was established in 1988 and given statutory powers on 12 April 1992
through the SEBI Act, 1992.

22
Securities and exchange Board of India (SEBI) was first established in the year 1988 as a non-statutory body for regulating the
securities market. It became an autonomous body by The Government of India on 12 May 1992 and given statutory powers in
1992 with SEBI Act 1992 being passed by the Indian Parliament. SEBI has its headquarters at the business district of Bandra
Kurla Complex in Mumbai, and has Northern, Eastern, Southern and Western Regional Offices in New
Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai and Ahmedabad respectively. It has opened local offices at Jaipur and Bangalore and is planning to open
offices at Guwahati, Bhubaneshwar, Patna, Kochi and Chandigarh in Financial Year 2013 - 2014.

Controller of Capital Issues was the regulatory authority before SEBI came into existence; it derived authority from the Capital
Issues (Control) Act, 1947.
Initially SEBI was a non statutory body without any statutory power. However, in 1992, the SEBI was given additional statutory
power by the Government of India through an amendment to the Securities and Exchange Board of India Act, 1992. In April 1988
the SEBI was constituted as the regulator of capital markets in India under a resolution of the Government of India. The SEBI is
managed by its members, which consists of following:
The chairman who is nominated by Union Government of India.Two members, i.e., Officers from Union Finance Ministry. One
member from the Reserve Bank of India. The remaining five members are nominated by Union Government of India, out of them
at least three shall be whole-time members.
After amendment of 1999, collective investment scheme brought under SEBI except NIDHI, chit fund and cooperatives
Functions and Responsibility
The Preamble of the Securities and Exchange Board of India describes the basic functions of the Securities and Exchange Board
of India as "...to protect the interests of investors in securities and to promote the development of, and to regulate the securities
market and for matters connected there with or incidental there to
SEBI has to be responsive to the needs of three groups, which
constitute the market:

 issuers of securities
 investors
 market intermediaries
SEBI has three functions rolled into one body: quasi-legislative, quasi-judicial and quasi-executive. It drafts regulations in its
legislative capacity, it conducts investigation and enforcement action in its executive function and it passes rulings and orders in
its judicial capacity. Though this makes it very powerful, there is an appeal process to create accountability. There is a Securities
Appellate Tribunal which is a three-member tribunal and is currently headed by Justice TarunAgarwala, former Chief Justice of
the Meghalaya High Court.[6] A second appeal lies directly to the Supreme Court. SEBI has taken a very proactive role in
streamlining disclosure requirements to international standards.
Powers
For the discharge of its functions efficiently, SEBI has been vested with the following powers:

 to approve by−laws of Securities exchanges.


 to require the Securities exchange to amend their by−laws.
 inspect the books of accounts and call for periodical returns from recognized Securities exchanges.
 inspect the books of accounts of financial intermediaries.
 compel certain companies to list their shares in one or more Securities exchanges.
 registration of Brokers and sub-brokers
There are two types of brokers: Discount brokers & Merchant brokers.

the issuance and supply of the Indian rupee. Until the Monetary Policy Committee was
established in 2016,[6] it also controlled monetary policy in India. It commenced its
operations on 1 April 1935 in accordance with the Reserve Bank of India Act,

TECHNICALANALYSIS
What is TechnicalAnalysis
Technical Analysis can be defined as an art and science of forecasting future prices based on
anexaminationofthepastpricemovements.Technicalanalysisisnotastrologyforpredicting prices.
Technical analysis is based on analyzing current demand-supply of commodities, stocks,
indices, futures or any tradableinstrument.

Technical analysis involve putting stock information like prices, volumes and open interest
on a chart and applying various patterns and indicators to it in order to assess the future
price movements. The time frame in which technical analysis is applied may range from
intraday(1-minute,5-minutes,10-minutes,15-minutes,30-minutesorhourly),daily,weekly or
monthly price data to manyyears.

CANDLE CHARTS

What is a chart

been in thepast.

axisrepresentstime;they-axisrepresentsprice.Byplottingastock’spriceoveraperiodof time, we

A chart can also depict the history of the volume of trading in a stock. That is, a chart can
illustrate the number of shares that change hands over a certain timeperiod.

Types of price charts:

1. Line charts

“Line charts” are formed by connecting the closing prices of a specific stock or market over
a given period of time. Line chart is particularly useful for providing a clear visual illustration
of the trend of a stock’s price or a market’s movement. It is an extremely valuableanalytical
tool which has been used by traders for past manyyears.

2. Bar chart

Bar chart is the most popular method traders use to see price action in a stock over a
given period of time. Such visual representation of price activity helps in spotting trends and
patterns.

Although daily bar charts are best known, bar charts can be created for any time period -
weekly and monthly, for example. A bar shows the high price for the period at the top and
the lowest price at the bottom of the bar. Small lines on either side of the vertical bar serve
tomarktheopeningandclosingprices.Theopeningpriceismarkedbyasmallticktotheleft of the
bar; the closing price is shown by a similar tick to the right of the bar. Many investors work
with bar charts created over a matter of minutes during a day’strading.

given below displays the elements of acandle.

A candlestick chart can be created using the data of high, low, open and closing prices for each
time period that you want to display. The hollow or filled portion of the candlestick is called “the
body” (also referred to as “the real body”). The long thin lines above and below the body
represent the high/low range and are called “shadows” (also referred to as “wicks”
and“tails”).Thehighismarkedbythetopoftheuppershadowandthelowbythebottomof
thelowershadow.Ifthestockcloseshigherthanitsopeningprice,ahollowcandlestick is drawn
with the bottom of the body representing the opening price and the top of the body representing
the closing price. If the stock closes lower than its opening price, a filled candlestick is
drawn with the top of the body representing the opening price and the bottom of the body
representing the closingprice.

Each candlestick provides an easy-to-decipher picture of price action. Immediately a trader can
see and compare the relationship between the open and close as well as the high and low. The

27
relationship between the open and close is considered vital information and forms the essence of
candlesticks. Hollow candlesticks, where the close is greater than the open, indicate buying
pressure. Filled candlesticks, where the close is less than the open, indicate
sellingpressure.Thus,comparedtotraditionalbarcharts,manytradersconsidercandlestick charts

For several years, the Japanese traders have been using candlestick charts to track market
activity. Eastern analysts have identified a number of patterns to determine the continuation
and reversal of trend.

ThesepatternsarethebasisforJapanesecandlestickchartanalysis.Thisplacescandlesticks rightly

One candle patterns

In the terminology of Japanese candlesticks, one candle patterns are known as “Umbrella
lines”. There are two types of umbrella lines - the hanging man and the hammer. They have

Theyarethesimplestlinesbecausetheydonotnecessarilyhavetobespottedincombination with
other candles to have somevalidity.

Hammer andHangingMan HammerHanging ManCandlesticks

Hammer

Hammer is a one candle pattern that occurs in a downtrend when bulls make a start to
step into the rally. It is so named because it hammers out the bottom. The lower shadow of
hammer is minimum of twice the length of body. Although, the color of the body is not of
much significance but a white candle shows slightly more bullish implications than the black
body. A positive day i.e. a white candle is required the next day to confirm thissignal.

Criteria

1. The lower shadow should be at least two times the length of thebody.

2. There should be no upper shadow or a very small uppershadow.

3. The real body is at the upper end of the trading range. The color of the body is not
important although a white body should have slightly more bullishimplications.

4. The following day needs to confirm the Hammer signal with a strong bullishday.

Signal enhancements
1. The longer the lower shadow, the higher the potential of a reversaloccurring.

2. Large volume on the Hammer day increases the chances that a blow off day has
occurred.

3. Agapdownfromthepreviousday’sclosesetsupforastrongerreversalmoveprovided the day

Pattern psychology

The market has been in a downtrend, so there is an air of bearishness. The price opens and
startstotradelower.Howeverthesell-offisabatedandmarketreturnstohighforthedayas
thebullshavesteppedin.Theystartbringingthepricebackuptowardsthetopofthetrading range.
This creates a small body with a large lower shadow. This represents that the bears could
not maintain control. The long lower shadow now has the bears questioning whether the
decline is still intact. Confirmation would be a higher open with yet a still higher close on the
next tradingday.

Hanging man

The hanging man appears during an uptrend, and its real body can be either black or white.
While it signifies a potential top reversal, it requires confirmation during the next trading
session. The hanging man usually has little or no upper shadow.

Shooting star and invertedhammer

Other candles similar to the hanging man and hammer are the “shooting star,” and the
“inverted hammer.” Both have small real bodies and can be either black or white but they
30
both have long upper shadows, and have very little or no lower shadows.

Inverted Hammer

Description -:Inverted hammer is one candle pattern with a shadow at least two times greater than the body.
This pattern is identified by the small body. They are found at the bottom of the decline

Signal enhancements

2. A gap down from the previous day’s close sets up for a stronger reversalmove.

Stars
A small real body that gaps away from the large real body preceding it is known as star. It’s still
a star as long as the small real body does not overlap the preceding real body. The color of the
star is not important. Stars can occur at tops or bottoms.

Shooting star

31
Description

The Shooting Star is a single line pattern that indicates an end to the uptrend. It is easily
identified by the presence of a small body with a shadow at least two times greater than the
body. It is found at the top of an uptrend. The Japanese named this pattern because it looks like
a shooting star falling from the sky with the tail trailing it.

Criteria
1. The upper shadow should be at least two times the length of thebody.

2. Prices gap open after anuptrend.

The bulls are in control. But before the close of the day, the bears step in and take

This could indicate that the bulls still have control if analyzing a Western bar chart. However,
the long upper shadow represents that sellers had started stepping in at these levels. Even
though the bulls may have been able to keep the price positive by the end of the day, the

32
evidence of the selling was apparent. A lower open or a black candle the next day reinforces
the fact that selling is going on.

Bullish engulfing

A “bullish engulfing pattern” consists of a large white real body that engulfs a small black
real body during a downtrend. It signifies that the buyers are overwhelming the sellers

Description

The Morning Star is a bottom reversal signal. Like the planet Mercury, the morning star,
signifiesbrighterthings–thatissunriseisabouttooccur,orthepricesaregoingtogohigher. A downtrend has
been in place which is assisted by a long black candlestick. There is little about the downtrend
continuing with this type of action. The next day prices gap lower on the open, trade within a small
range and close near their open. This small body shows the beginning of indecision. The next day
prices gap higher on the open and then close much higher. A significant reversal of trend
hasoccurred.

Doji

Doji lines are patterns with the same open and close price. It’s a significant reversal indicator.

The Importance of the Doji

The perfect dojii session has the same opening and closing price, yet there is some flexibility
tothisrule.Iftheopeningandclosingpricearewithinafewticksofeachother,thelinecould still be viewed as a
doji

The doji is a distinct trend change signal. However, the likelihood of a reversal increases if
subsequent candlesticks confirm the doji’s reversal potential. Doji sessions are important only in
markets where there are not many doji. If there are many doji on a particular chart, one should not
view the emergence of a new doji in that particular market as a meaningful
development.Thatiswhycandlestickanalysisusuallyshouldnotuseintra-daychartsofless

PATTERN STUDY

What are support and resistancelines


Supportandresistancerepresentkeyjunctureswheretheforcesofsupplyanddemandmeet. These lines
appear as thresholds to price patterns. They are the respective lines which stops the prices from
decreasing orincreasing.

A support line refers to that level beyond which a stock’s price will not fall. It denotes that price level
at which there is a sufficient amount of demand to stop and possibly, for a time, turn a downtrend
higher. Similarly a resistance line refers to that line beyond which a stock’s price will not increase. It
indicates that price level at which a sufficient supply of stock is available to stop and possibly, for a
time, head off an uptrend in prices. Trend lines are often referred to as support and resistance lines
on an angle.

Support

A support is a horizontal floor where interest in buying a commodity is strong enough to overcome
the pressure to sell. Support level is the price level at which sufficient demand exists to, at least
temporarily, halt a downward movement in prices. Logically as the price declines towards support
and gets cheaper, buyers become more inclined to buy and sellers
becomelessinclinedtosell.Bythetimethepricereachesthesupportlevel,itisbelievedthat demand will
overcome supply and prevent the price from falling belowsupport.

Support does not always hold true and a break below support signals that the bulls have lost over the bears. A
fall below support level indicates more willingness to sell and a lack of willingness to buy. A break in the levels of

Resistance does not always hold true and a break above resistance signals that the bears have lost

sell. Resistance breaks and new highs indicate that buyer’s expectations have increased and are
ready to buy at even higher prices. In addition, sellers could not be coerced into selling until prices

What Does a Technical indicatoroffer?
Technical analysts use indicators to look into a different perspective from which stock prices can be
analyzed. Technical indicators provide unique outlook on the strength and direction of the underlying
price action for a given timeframe.

Why use indicators?

TechnicalIndicatorsbroadlyservethreefunctions:toalert,toconfirmandtopredict.Indicator
actsasanalerttostudypriceaction,sometimesitalsogivesasignaltowatchforabreakof support. A large
positive divergence can act as an alert to watch for a resistance breakout. Indicators can be used to
confirm other technical analysis tools. Some investors and traders use indicators to predict the
direction of futureprices.

Types of indicators

Indicators can broadly be divided into two types “LEADING” and “LAGGING”.

Leading indicators

Leading indicators are designed to lead price movements. Benefits of leading indicators are early
signaling for entry and exit, generating more signals and allow more opportunities to trade. They
represent a form of price momentum over a fixed look-back period, which is the number of periods
used to calculate the indicator. Some of the wellmore popular leading indicators include Commodity
Channel Index (CCI), Momentum, Relative Strength Index (RSI), Stochastic Oscillator and Williams
%R.

Lagging Indicators

Lagging Indicators are the indicators that would follow a trend rather then predicting a reversal. A
lagging indicator follows an event. These indicators work well when prices move
inrelativelylongtrends.Theydon’twarnyouofupcomingchangesinprices,theysimplytell you what prices
are doing (i.e., rising or falling) so that you can invest accordingly. These
trendfollowingindicatorsmakesyoubuyandselllateand,inexchangeformissingtheearly opportunities,
they greatly reduce your risk by keeping you on the right side of the market. Moving averages and
the MACD are examples of trend following, or “lagging,”indicators.

Moving averages

Oneofthemostcommonandfamiliartrend-followingindicatorsisthemovingaverages.They
smoothadataseriesandmakeiteasiertospottrends,somethingthatisespeciallyhelpfulin volatile markets.
They also form the building blocks for many other technical indicators and overlays.

The two most popular types of moving averages are the Simple Moving Average (SMA) and the
Exponential Moving Average (EMA). They are described in more detail below.
Simple moving average(SMA) 47

A simple moving average is formed by computing the average (mean) price of a security over a
specified number of periods. It places equal value on every price for the time span selected.
While it is possible to create moving averages from the Open, the High, and the Low data points,
most moving averages are created using the closing price. For example: a 5-
daysimplemovingaverageiscalculatedbyaddingtheclosingpricesforthelast5daysand dividing the total
by5.

The calculation is repeated for each price bar on the chart. The averages are then joined to form a
smooth curving line - the moving average line. Continuing our example, if the next closing price in
the average is 15, then this new period would be added and the oldest day, which is 10, would be
dropped.

The new 5-day simple moving average would be calculated as follows:

Overthelast2days,theSMAmovedfrom12to13.Asnewdaysareadded,theolddayswill be subtracted and


the moving average will continue to move overtime.

Exponential moving average (EMA)

Exponentialmovingaveragealsocalledasexponentiallyweightedmovingaverageiscalculated
byapplyingmoreweighttorecentpricesrelativetoolderprices.Inordertoreducethelagin simple moving
averages, technicians often use exponential moving averages. The weighting applied to the most
recent price depends on the specified period of the moving
average.TheshortertheEMA’speriod,weightisappliedtothemostrecentprice.Forexample:a10-period
exponential moving average weighs the most recent price 18.18% while a 20-period EMA weighs the
most recent price 9.52%. As we’ll see, the calculating and EMA is much harder than calculating an
SMA. The important thing to remember is that the exponential moving average puts more weight on
recent prices. As such, it will react quicker to recent price changes than a simple moving average.
Here’s the calculationformula.

Exponential moving average calculation

Exponential Moving Averages can be specified in two ways - as a percent-based EMA or as a period-
based EMA. A percent-based EMA has a percentage as its single parameter while a period-based EMA
has a parameter that represents the duration of the EMA. The formula for an exponential moving
averageis:

EMA (current) = ((Price (current) - EMA (prev)) x (Multiplier) + EMA (prev)

For a percentage-based EMA, “Multiplier” is equal to the EMA’s specified percentage. For a period-
based EMA, “Multiplier” is equal to 2 / (1 + N)
48where N is the specified number of periods.

For example, a 10-period EMA’s Multiplier is calculated like this:


This means that a 10-period EMA is equivalent to an 18.18% EMA.

The 10-period simple moving average is used for the first calculation only. After that the previous
period’s EMA is used.

Notethat,inexponentialmovingaverage,everypreviousclosingpriceinthedatasetisused in the
calculation. The impact of the older data never disappears though it diminishes over a period of time.
This is true regardless of the EMA’s specified period. The effects of older data diminish rapidly for
shorter EMA’s than for longer ones but, again, they never completely disappear.

Simple versus exponential

Generally you will find very little difference between an exponential moving average and a
simplemovingaverage.Considerthisexamplewhichusesonly21tradingdays,thedifference
isminimalbutadifferencenonetheless.Theexponentialmovingaverageisconsistentlycloser to the actual
price. On average, the EMA is 3/8 of a point closer to the actual price than the SMA.

are usually best for short-term situations that require a responsive moving average. Simple moving
averages work well for longer-term situations that49
do not require a lot ofsensitivity.

Trend identification/ Confirmation


Moving averages are helpful in keeping you in line with the price trend by providing buy signals shortly
after the market bottoms out and sell signals shortly after it tops, rather than trying to catch the exact

bottom or top.

There are three ways to identify the trend with moving averages: direction, location and crossovers.

Thefirsttrendidentificationtechniqueusesthedirectionofthemovingaveragetodetermine the trend. The trend


is considered up when moving average is continuously rising. If the
movingaverageisdeclining,thetrendisconsidereddown.Thedirectionofamovingaverage can be determined
simply by looking at a plot of the moving average or by applying an indicator to the moving average. In
either case, we would not want to act on every subtle change, but rather look at general directional
movement andchanges.

Thesecondtechniquefortrendidentificationispricelocation.Thebasictrendcanbedetermined through location


of the price relative to the moving average. If the price is located belowthe

moving average then there is a downward trend in place and visa versa for the price being located above
the moving average.

The third technique for trend identification is the location of the shorter moving average relative to the
longer moving average. The trend will go up is going up if the shorter moving average is above the longer
moving average. If the shorter moving average is below the longer moving average, the trend is
considered down.A variable moving average is an exponential moving average that automatically adjusts
the smoothing percentage based on the volatility of the data series. Such moving average compensates
for trading-range versus trending markets. This MA automatically adjusts the smoothing constant to
adjust its sensitivity, often allowing it to outperform the othermoving averages in these difficultmarkets.

Because of the potential for false signals MAs should always be used in conjunction with the other
indicators. For example Bollinger bands adjust in distance from a moving average
basedonvolatility,usingstandarddeviationaboveandbelowthemovingaverageratherthan
percentages.Indicatorswhichareespeciallywell-suitedforbeingusedwithmovingaveragesinclude

MACD, Price ROC, Momentum, and Stochastic. A moving average of another moving average is also
common.

False signals can be avoided by using a filtering mechanism. Many traders, for example, recommend
waiting for one period - that is one day for daily data and one week for weekly data.

Whenever possible try to use a combination of signals. MA crossovers that take place at the same
time as trend line violations or price pattern signals often provide strong confirmation.

Signals - multiple movingaverages

It is usually advantageous to employ more 50


than one moving average. Double and triple MAs often
provide useful signals.

With two MAs the double crossover is used. When the short term moving average crosses
thelongtermmovingaveragetothedownside,thenasellsignalwouldbetriggeredandvisa versa.

Forexample,twopopularcombinationsarethe5and20-dayaveragesandthe20and 100-day averages.

The technique of using two averages together lags the market a bit more than a single moving
average but produces fewerwhipsaws.

Many investors use the triple moving average crossover system to buy and sell stock. The most
widely used triple crossover system is the popular 4-9-18-day MA combination. A buy

Oscillators

Relative Strength Index(RSI)

The RSI is part of a class of indicators called momentum oscillators.

There are a number of indicators that fall in this category, the most common being Relative Strength
Index, Stochastic, Rate of Change, Williams %R. Although these indicators are all calculated
differently, there are a number of common elements to their use which shall be discussed in the
context of the RSI.

RISK MANAGEMENT
Riskisthereineverybusinessandproperriskmanagementisroadtosuccessforanybusiness. Equity trading is a lucrative
business which is very rewarding but this reward is not risk free, as theoretically and practically risk free trade does
not exist. Because risk is associated with the reward, it becomes essential to manage risk in order to protect
one’scapital.

Components of risk management


Stop loss

Stop loss is an integral part of risk management. Stop loss is an order placed to buy or sell security
51
once certain price is reached. It is basically designed to limit the amount of loss on buy/sell position.
In fact by placing the stop loss one is just closing the losing position and limiting the amount of loss
which can increase beyond imagination.
Analyze reward risk ratio
Before initiating a trade, the trade should analyze reward risk ratio. On a conservative basis if the
said ratio is less than 1.5 then one should not initiate the trade.
Trail stoploss
Initially stop loss is placed to protect one’s capital on a losing trade, but once the trade is in profit
stop loss should be so moved that trade is at zero risk even if trailed stop loss gets triggered.

Booking profit
Profit is the only goal for which we all trade. But at the same time profit is profit only when it is
realized otherwise its notional profit. Hence one should book profit at predefined target
levelsandoneshouldnotbecarriedawaybyone’semotionsspeciallygreedwhenpricesare near to
predefined targetlevels.
Use of stop loss

He should be aware that it is possible and inevitable to have a losing streak of five losses in a row.
This is called drawdown. This awareness will help the traders prepare as to how to control risk and
choose their tradingsystem.What we are striving for is a balanced growth in the trader’s equity curve
over time.

Introduction
Larsen & Toubro originated from a company founded in 1936 in Mumbai by two Danish engineers, Henning Holck-
Larsen and Søren Kristian Toubro. The company began as a representative of Danish manufacturers of dairy
equipment. However, with the start of the Second World War in 1939 and the resulting restriction on imports, the
partners started a small workshop to undertake jobs and provide service facilities. Germany's invasion of Denmark in
1940 stopped supplies of Danish products. The war-time need to repair and refit ships offered L&T an opportunity, and
led to the formation of a new company, Hilda Ltd, to handle these operations. L&T also started to repair and fabricate
ships signalling the expansion of the company. The sudden internment of German engineers in British India (due to
suspicions caused by the Second World War), who were to put up a soda ash plant for the Tata's, gave L&T a chance to
enter the field of installation.
In 1944, ECC was incorporated by the partners; the company at this time was focused on construction projects
(Presently, ECC is the construction division of L&T). L&T began several foreign collaborations. By 1945, the company
represented British manufacturers of equipment used to manufacture products such as hydrogenated oils, biscuits,
soaps and glass. In 1945, the company signed an agreement with Caterpillar Tractor Company, USA, for
marketing earth moving equipment. At the end of the war, large numbers of war-surplus Caterpillar equipments were
available at attractive prices, but the finances required were beyond the capacity of the partners. This prompted them to
raise additional equity capital, and on 7 February 1946, Larsen & Toubro Private Limited was incorporated.
After India's independence in 1947, L&T set up offices in Calcutta (now Kolkata), Madras (now Chennai) and New Delhi.
In 1948, 55 acres of undeveloped marsh and jungle was acquired in Powai, Mumbai. A previously uninhabitable swamp
subsequently became the site of its main manufacturing hub. In December 1950, L&T became a public company with a
paid-up capital of ₹20 lakh (US$29,000). The sales turnover in that year was ₹1.09 crore (US$160,000). In 1956, a
major part of the company's Mumbai office moved to ICI House in Ballard Estate, which would later be purchased by the
company and renamed as L&T House, its present headquarters. Larsen & Toubro is a major technology, engineering,
construction, manufacturing and financial services conglomerate, with global operations. L&T addresses critical
needs in key sectors - Hydrocarbon, Infrastructure, Power, Process Industries and Defence - for customers in over
30 countries around the world.

thoughtful when it is applied in practical field.Now the time has changed.Practical knowledge for
management student is must to qualify as a potential manager.it is for this reason that summer
training is prescribed as a part of syllabus for Masters of Business Administration.

The two months work in Mudrabiz finance Company were exciting and hardworking.The project
report, which I present after completing my training,consists of “Topic”.
