Zerodha,

Does the brokerage include service tax?

service taxes are not included.. it is levied upon brokerage you pay.. for rs 20 per order it is about 2.06.

that means, i can trade in one lot of minifty with 5K in my account?

you need around 3-3.5k for 1 lot mininifty for intraday or 11.5-12k for overnight position (keeping as delivery)

3 - 3.5K is not correct.....it varies daily but nifty @ 5900 means around 5 - 5.5 k needed for minifty.(its not exactly half of span margin, it varies)..you can check it....

Dear Zerodha if someone wishes to pledge his holding with linked ILFS account with you for trading purpose, how to go about it ...also what will be the charge for the same...?

Once the shares are in the ILFS demat, give us a buzz and we will do it for you.... Presently, pledging can't be done online on your own, it will have to be done manually by calling us....The charge for pledging would only be the dp charges for moving it from your demat account to the ILFS pledge account( Rs 15/scrip charged when you move the scrips by ILFS).... Cheers...

Hi,

Suppose i want to short an option for 1 week (not intraday), wat is margin that is blocked.....is it 50% of span???

For any position that you hold overnight( anything more than 1 day) you need complete margins stipulated by the exchange....

ya definately ...indian brokers shold also come forward and provide dummy accounts just like forex dummy accounts where one can test their strategies with dummy money too

Regards
Anurag

Hi Anurag,

The people who are giving you dummy accounts can do it because they are running CFD's.... When you buy and sell on CFD's, you are really not buying or selling anything in an underlying exchange.... If you are trading currencies provided by fxcm, you are basically just playing his spreads and your orders are all executed with fxcm itself and not in any underlying exchange....

Any advise, would be to stay away from all CFD products as I know how they work and they are like the biggest WMD's available in the financial markets... WMD: Weapons of mass destruction... ...

in your previous posts there were several replies that you will pay the associate within one week/ there is going to be some update in the back office regarding associate margin etc. promise was action within one week........nothing was done .............no percentage payment...........no update on the back office.............you are mostly uptodate on your promises............why delay on this front

 

[Zerodha]

yes, for intraday..MINIFTY 1 LOT...you can trade for around Rs.5500....and around 11k needed for holding it...........

For trading any futures, margins can vary from 50% to 100% of total margin based on the volatility in the markets...

But 99% of the days it will be around 50to 60% of SPAN margin... So nifty@5900, it will be around 5500 for intraday and 11k for overnight positions....

Cheers...
