Smartcat...it's just that you've to call the broker to place orders.
 
One doesn't have convenience of logging in from anywhere & punching F1, F2 to buy/sell and look at fancy things those software provides. Online trading just pushes that urge to churn & turn your portfolio. I've seen some people constantly 'toying' with the online trading software as if it's some video game. Now if you're a pure seasoned trader, it's a different matter...he would need those tools like stop-loss etc etc & timing entry-exits.
 
About the quality of Brokers, well it doesn't make a difference whether online or offline............they are all the same. Just use them to execute your orders not for any advise. Never ask the barber whether you need a hair-cut.

It somehow helps avoid the itch to do something. Not all people have this quality of 'detached emotions', so restlessness gets most guys in trouble.
 
Devesh, this is good thinking process...even before you're 20!
 
 
There would be a lot of firsts to Devesh before he turns 20.Somehow I curse myself about having wasted so many years but past is just a mirage we have to live in the "now" and prepare for the futureSmile

Well i dont think i agrre with that  coz in todays world we have to have a warrent buffet and Jack scwagger

What i mean to say is invest as well as trade 

I am sure we are not as rich as Warren Buffet to buy a piece of of the company and see to that it works well..

We buy bits of the company and not pieces of the company

I just was curious ...we all talk about Takesh jhunjhunwala ...why dows he trade and invest

If he does some online trading ..does iot mean that he is a mungeri ...i dont think so...

If somethings work for people i think people should follow that..

 I hope i didnt hurt anyone ......

PE funds invest $270 m in 7 broking firms
 
Seven broking firms have been happy recipients of around $270 million in investments by private equity firms during the first six months of 2007, signalling a new trend in the industry. This compared to just three deals of $202 million which the broking space saw in the whole of 2006
 
The bull run in the market over the past two years has also led to a considerable rise in interest in broking firms, with Motilal Oswal Securities, Sharekhan, SMC, Anand Rathi and India Infoline receiving private equity investments.

While Citigroup Venture Capital along with other entities plans to acquire 85% in Sharekhan, the online broking subsidiary of SSKI; Bessemer and New Vernon purchased a 9.29% stake in Motilal Oswal for $28.10 million. US-based blank cheque company, Millennium India Acquisition Company (MIAC), acquired 14.9% in Delhi-based SMC Group.

MOST Non-brokerage division contributed 17% of revenues against 9% in Q3FY07. They should easily do EPS of over 100 and at current price, the stock looks reasonable.

Devesh,
I am not able to find thread on Motilal Oswal. Citi came up with a target of 2500 for Motilal which is 4 times the current price. I never seen any research report with 4 times target price. I hope we are not missing anything.
While one person hesitates because he feels inferior, the other is busy making mistakes and becoming superior.

kanagala what does your common sense say, forget citi,
understanding both the power of compound return and the difficulty getting it is the heart and soul of understanding a lot of things
