Quick Video: How to trade in ICICI Direct?

For those of you who are here for a quick answer, here is a short video on how to trade in ICICI direct that can help you to learn the trading process fast. But, I will definitely recommend you reading this complete post in order to get an in-depth knowledge of the trading process in ICICI Direct. Here it the video:

Few things to know for trading in ICICI Direct

First of all, you need to know that the market opens from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM from Monday to Friday, excluding a few national holidays like Independence day, Republic day, etc. You can get the complete list of holidays in a year from BSE/NSE website.

In general, you can place an order to buy (or sell) stocks during market days when the market is open. At this time you can place orders to buy the stock at the current market price or you can set a limit price (say you want to buy a stock whose market price is 90, only when the price falls to 87 or less. Then, you place a limit price 87 against the market price which is 90. Here the trade will only execute when the stock reaches the limit price).

Anyways, you can also place orders outside the market timings i.e. before 9:15 AM or after 3:30 PM. But the order will be executed only when the stock market opens. Although these are advantageous for those who can’t place an order during the market time (for employees with a day job), there are few disadvantages of placing the orders after market timings.

For example, you won’t know the opening price of the stocks for the next day, so it might open at a higher price the next day which may lead you to reset your order price or cancel (and you might even not be able to buy the stock). So, it would be preferable to place orders for the stocks only during the market time so that you have the full information on the current market price of the stock.

Now that you understand the background of the stock market timings and how the market works, let’s move towards the central topic of the post – how to trade in ICICI direct? That is, how to buy and sell stocks using ICICI direct trading account.

Step by step guide for How to trade in ICICI direct:

Step 1: Login to your ICICI Direct account

First, you need your account credentials to login in to the ICICI direct. If you have a 3-in-1 (Saving+Demat+Trading) account in ICICI Direct, you can have the access to buy/sell (using trading account) and hold your stocks using the demat account. Therefore, if you are new to trading and want to invest in stocks using ICICI,  I will suggest you open a 3-in-1 account in ICICI Direct.

After you have opened your account in the ICICI direct, you will get your username and password to log in. The first step is to google and search, ‘ICICI Direct’. Open the first link that comes in the search engine (www.icicidirect.com). Then, click on login in the top right-hand corner.

The website will ask your credentials like username, password, and date of birth/pan card. After entering the correct details, you can enter your ICICI direct account.

step 1 How to trade in ICICI Direct? Buy/Sell Stocks

Step 2: Allocate funds for buying stocks

The next step after logging in your ICICI direct account is to allocate funds in the trading account.

The concept of allocating funds in very simple. Let’s say you have Rs 50,000 in your saving accounts in ICICI bank (or any other bank linked to your trading and demat account). And you want to buy stocks worth Rs 10,000. Then, you need to transfer that amount from your saving account to the trading account so that you can place the order of the stock worth Rs 10,000. This can be done by allocating the fund.

‘Allocate fund’ option can be found on the landing page after logging and is highlighted here.step 2 allocate funds in icici direct

Typically, this step of allocating funds can be done within a minute using your ICICI Direct account. The steps are as follows:

  • Go to option Secondary, Market Equity, ETF (Note: if you want to buy IPO, Mutual funds then you have to go to other option).
  • Select ‘ADD’ option and enter the amount you need to add.
  • Then, click on ‘Submit’.
  • You can see the allocated fund in the ‘Current Allocation’ after submitting.

step 2 allocating fund to trade in icici direct

Step 3: Place order for the stock

This is the third and final step for purchasing stocks using ICICI direct. After allocating the fund, you should select the option ‘Place order’, which is present in the equity option. This option is highlighted here:

step 4 Place order for the stock icici direct

After selecting the place order, you have to follow the following steps. The steps are simple and can be performed within a minute:

  1. First, select the ‘Cash’ option in the Product.
  2. Next, you have the option to select the stock exchange. You have two options- NSE (National stock exchange) or BSE (Bombay stock exchange). You can choose anyone and it doesn’t make much difference as prices are almost the same on both exchanges and follows almost the same trend. (I generally prefer NSE.)
  3. Then you can view your limit on how much money you have to buy the stocks. This is the allocated money that you added in step 2. If you need more money, you can add an amount by allocating extra funds.
  4. Now enter the stock. For example, if you want to buy a stock of ‘Tata Motors’, start typing ‘tata mot..’ on the stock option. The drop-down options will appear and you can select your stock from the list.
  5. Next, you need to enter the quantity. the number of stocks that you want to buy.
  6. After that, you have to select that option for order validity. Here you have three options – DAY, IOC or VTC. If you want to place an order for that day only, you should select Day. If you are placing a limit price and want to continue the placed order for the next few days, then you can select VTC 0valid till cancellation. (Prefer ‘day’ order)
  7. Next, you have to select the Order Type. There are two options here – Market and Limit. I have already explained these earlier in this post. If you want to buy the stock at the current market price select ‘Market’ option. If you want to buy the stock at a limit price, select the ‘Limit’ option.
    For example, let’s say that Tata motor’s stocks are currently trading at a market price of Rs 469.10. If you want to buy that stock at market price, then you should select the ‘Market’ option. However, if you want to buy the tata motors stock only when the price is Rs 465 or lower, select the ‘limit’ option.
  8. If you have selected ‘limit option’ in the Order Type, then you need to enter the ‘Limit Price’ in the next step. (This is Rs 465 in the previous example of Tata Motors).
  9. The last option is the stop loss trigger price. You can leave this option blank and is not a must-fill option. This is an order placed with a broker to sell a security when it reaches a certain price. A stop-loss order is designed to limit an investor’s loss on a position in a security. However, it is more beneficial for day traders, not investors. You can study more about stop trigger price here.
  10. Finally, select ‘Buy Now’

buy stocks using ICICI direct

After clicking on ‘Buy Now’, you will be directed to a confirmation page. You need to confirm the details. And Tada!!!! You have bought a stock! Congratulations!!!!

If you want to re-confirm the stock that you’ve bought, you can do check by selecting the option ‘TRADE BOOK’ in equity. The option is highlighted here.

In Closing

After the trade is complete, it generally takes two-three days for the stock to reflect in your portfolio. Do not worry if can’t find the stock in your portfolio on the very next day since you executed the trade. It will eventually show up. The process takes T+2 days for transferring it from the previous owner to your account. Read more about stock settlement process in India here.

In addition to using the web-based ICICI direct portal, you can also trade in stocks using ICICI direct mobile app for android and iOS devices.

      Why after buying stocks at market or limit price after allocations it reflects average price of stock which is higher than market price and hence unrealised gains or losses are based on this average price and not the price reflecting in digital contract note

    What will be the brokerage charge? say for purchasing a stock of Rs 500?

    Reply
    • Kritesh
      Kritesh on May 8, 2017 at 9:52 am

      It depends on your broker. Generally a full service broker charges between 0.1% – 0.5% for delivery. So for Rs 500, if you take brokerage charge of 0.3%, then it will cost around Rs 1.50

      Kritesh on August 17, 2017 at 4:11 pm

      Hi Suresh. Good question. When you buy a stocks on multiple days in delivery (i.e holding period is more than one day for each stocks), then the stock price gets average out. In your case, the stock price will be Rs [(320*m)+(280*n)]/(m+n), where m & n are the number of stocks bought at Rs 320 and at Rs 280. For example, if you bought ten stocks each time, then m=n=10, and stock price will be Rs 300. Further, when you sell a stock the profit/loss will be decided on average buying price only. For example, if you sell you stock at Rs 350, then the profit will be Rs (350-300) = Rs 50. I hope the answer is helpful.

      You can modify your order and set the limit price accordingly. For example, let’s say you placed a limit price of Rs 90 for a stock. However, the market price in not coming below Rs 95. In such case, you can modify your order to Rs 96 so that the trade can be completed. Hope this is helpful.

      Hi Banerjee. You can place an AMO (After market order) in which you need to set a limit price at which you want to buy the stocks. The procedure is same as what you follow for buying stocks during market time. However, the order will be placed only once the market is open next day. No transaction is done after market timings.

      Day, IOC and VTC are the order types
      Day = valid for the day
      IOC = Immediate or cancel (The order will be executed immediately or will be canceled)
      VTC = Valid Till cancel (the order will be valid for that day and upcoming days until canceled).
      I hope this is useful.

      Hi Nilesh. You can place an order through an AMO (after market order) before the opening session. If a trade match is found during the order matching period in the pre-opening session, then your order will be complete. I hope it helps.

    Hey. My question is how many days or hours it takes once you the place the order for shares to arrive (reflect) at your account. Because if I want to sell it the next day (suppose price is up next day), can I place the sell order then ? My experience is that it takes 3-4 days for shares to reflect in your account so you HAVE TO WAIT for that period before you can even think of selling them. Please guide.

      Indian stock exchange follows t+2 settlement rule which means it takes 2 days to reflect the stock in your account. You can sell the stock one received. Nevertheless, yes, you have to wait till then.

      Hi Ridhdhi. In your case, your account might be mapped with a sub-broker of ICICI securities. You need to call ICICI direct and ask them to provide trading credentials. As your account is already open, it won’t take too long.

      Hi Rahul. As you know that the price of stocks keeps on fluctuating. Let’s say you placed a limit order to buy a stock at Rs 90. However, the price of the stock is fluctuating between Rs 85 to 95. Now, when your order amount matches the current market price, the transaction is done.

      If you place a day order, your order will be valid for a day. Throughout the day, whenever your order price matches the market price, the transaction is done. Else, it will be canceled at the End of the day. On the other hand, IOC is immediate or cancel and VTC is valid til canceled.

      In your case, select the day option. It will work well. I hope it helps!! Cheers!!

    Suppose, I sell some shares on day One. It sold on the same day and deducted from my portfolio on second day and money deposited in my SB Account on Fourth Day. Is it possible that I got the money in my SB Account on second day? I mean they take some charge and do the process faste.

      Hi Thomas. The procedure takes 2 days to transfer shares from one demat account and credit in the account of the buyer and settle the complete cash transaction.

    No.. it’s not necessary to allocate fund if you have 3 in 1 account as money gets debited directly from your account when one buys stock. But since there is minimum average balance (MAB ) policy in ICICI General saving A/c you have to take care of the same if your DMAT a/c is attached to it.

I am planning to sell the stock , but the problem is it asking to choose NSE or BSE which I don’t remember. I want to find the purchase details.

      Hi Balaji. You can sell it anywhere, either BSE/NSE. It doesn’t matters.

        ABHISHEK GARU,
        I HAVE PURCHASED IN NSE 100 CANARA BANK SHARES AND SOLD 100 SHARES IN BSE ON THE SAME DAY .
        BUT MY EXISTING SHARES OF 100 SHARES WERE DEDUCTED. DUE TO CHANGE OF EXCHANGE IN BUYING AND SELLING THE EXISTING BALANCE WAS DEDUCTED, IS IT CORRECT. TWO DAYS BACK I HAVE DONE SAME LIKE BUYING AND SELLING IN ONE EXCHANGE. BUT MY EXISTING SHARES WERE NOT DEDUCTED.
        DUE TO CHANGE OF EXCHANGE IN BUYING AND SELLING, I AM GETTING 100 SHARES TRADE PLUE TWO DAYS. IS IT CORRECT. I AM DOING CASH BUY AND CASH SELL ONLY PLEASE CLARIFY.

    If I buy a share in day option, is it intraday or I can hold it for how many days if I don’t want to sell this share on the same day. Because in icici direct there is no option of buying share in delivery.. When I cash buy any share in equity if I don’t sell it on the same day, the this come into btst option in equity. Why it is so?.. If automatically come into btst can I hold it for long time..if not what is the way to hold share for a long time in Icicidirect
