One of the best options trading books I have come across is ‘Everything About Trading Options’ by Prashant Shah. It is an exceptional book, perfect for both new and experienced options traders. It begins by explaining the basics of options trading and gradually moving to more complex topics like options strategies. The strategies are explained in thorough detail with simple examples to help the readers understand them better. You can learn Call & Put, and straddle & strangle strategies easily. It also discussed option chain and open interest in detail.
This is probably one of the best trading books out there for every options trader. I strongly suggest this you give this a read. You can find it for free on Shelf by Definedge Securities. This book is available without a login. But if you are looking for some amazing trading and investment books, you should check the other books on Shelf too. You will get free access to books on a number of charting methods and topics, all written by experts. To access all the books on Shelf, all you need is a Definedge Securities Demat account that gives you access to their tools too.

A brokerage calculator is an online tool used to calculate the applicable brokerage for each trade. These are offered by brokers to help their customers calculate the cost they may incur on specific trades. A stock brokerage calculator uses information like the price and quantity of an order and provides you with accurate information on various charges you will pay if you execute your trade.
A good brokerage calculator will help you calculate your turnover as well charges. For each trade, you can calculate -
• Turnover
• Breakeven points
• Brokerage charges
• GST
• STT
• Transaction charges
• SEBI charges
• Stamp Duty
Basically, you get a clear picture of what you will be investing in each trade and based on your risk tolerance, you can go through with the right trade. A share brokerage calculator helps you plan your trades better. You can manage your risk better and make informed trading decisions.
If you are looking for a good brokerage calculator, I would suggest you try the one by Definedge Securities. You can choose the calculator based on the segment you wish to trade in and calculate the charges associated with any trade by adding the trade details. -
Online Trading refers to trading (buying and selling) securities in the Indian stock market via internet-based trading platforms. This includes performing analysis and executing trades online. The biggest advantage of online stock trading is the ease of trading from anywhere with a simple internet connection. Online trading allows you to keep an eye on the market movement, manage your portfolio and investments besides executing trades. You can access real-time data like stock prices, charts, and financial indicators to make informed decisions. Today, almost everyone relies on online trading platforms to trade in the stock market.
How online trading typically works is that as per SEBI guidelines, you must have a Demat account with a broker to trade in the financial markets. Your broker will offer you online share trading platforms which you can use to trade and invest. These online trading platforms can be a mobile trading app, a web-based application or desktop software.
If you are new to the world of trading and are looking for a good online trading platform, I would suggest you consider Definedge Securities. With a demat account, you can get access to their trading products, education platforms and easy brokerage options. As a new trader, it can be the best place for you to begin your journey.
