What is NIFTY?
I have two queries -
1- What is upper circuit?
2- What is BTST?
NSE Index Fifty
Upper Circuit is the limit (percentage) upto which a share can go high in a particular day.
eg. the UC limit is 5% for STC
so if it is 1000 bucks today. It can go maximum by only 5% or 50 rupees on this day!Ithe share gets locked and no more buying can take place.
Buy today sell tommorrowQuote:
2- What is BTST?
Thanks >Take for this thread :thumb:
Can anyone answers the below questions:-
1. What is Short?
2. What is Position?
To understand this first look at Long, Long is when you have bought a stock, when you think that the stock would move upward. While Short is when you have sold a stock(even if you dont own it), when you think that the stock would move downward.Quote:
1. What is Short?
You cannot carry stock short beyond intraday, but can carry short position in futures and options.
When you buy and sell a stock you are having a 'position' in those stocks. Either long or short.Quote:
2. What is Position?

I have two basic questions. Please answer when you have time -
What are Futures?
How they are different from shares?
Thanks in advance!
A 'Future' is a contract to buy or sell the underlying asset for a specific price at a pre-determined time. If you buy a futures contract, it means that you promise to pay the price of the asset at a specified time. If you sell a future, you effectively make a promise to transfer the asset to the buyer of the future at a specified price at a particular time.
