Today Share Market Open : If you are a trader, especially a beginner, or someone planning to start an online trading account, you would need to keep an eye on that trading calendar.
The National Stock Exchange (NSE) or the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) are two key exchanges you need to keep a watch on. All the stock exchanges function five days a week, i.e, from Monday to Friday, so if you are a trader with a brand new trading account, it helps to keep this in mind when you plan your strategies.
