Hi Friends...
I am a new trader on the block. But I have learned quite a lot many good things from Traderji.
I have the trading account with SHAREKHAN. In the carnage that happened this week, I had sold all my stocks on monday morning (21 jan).
Yesterday, after the market recovered a bit, I thought of buying back my stocks. So, I logged into my account. I had around 1 lac rupees with my account. So I thought I would be able to buy many of my favourite stocks at a bargain price.
As I punched the order, my trading terminal said "Not enough money in the account".
I was highly surprised. Since, I had sold all my stocks on Monday, I hadn't experienced all the losses that happened in next two days. SO, I was expecting at least 1 lac rupees in my account.
So, I checked my limit statement and it said only 25 thounsand. Now, how is it possible... I know I will get my money back, but what's the point. I mean, if you cannot buy at this time then what's the point in getting back ur money later..
Today, I was reading some threads in traderji. And I found that its not only me but many other small investors who are facing the same problems.
So, in spite of having money in our accounts, we cannot jump in to buy our favourite stocks at this 'highly important time'.
Now, my serious question is, WHAT IS THE USE OF BEING TRADER URSELF WHEN WE GET SUCH TYPE OF SERVICE IN INDIA.
ISN'T it best to simply invest in Mutual Funds. At least they can buy and sell the stocks at the appropriate times.
I feel pathetic seeing the services of INDIAN financial companies..
Thanks..
