==Trading activity==
[[Stock trader|Stock brokers']] offices take on a distinctly ethnic look with neatly designed [[rangoli]] patterns and innumerable [[Diya (light)|diyas]] lined up to welcome [[Lakshmi|Goddess Lakshmi]]. Muhurat trading is one of the many links the broking(trading) community retains with its rich past. The practice of Muhurat trading has been retained and observed for ages. The schedule of the muhurat trading is announced by the stock exchange and the [[BSE SENSEX|Sensex]] closes on a higher note at the ending of the trading hour. With this, the traders on [[Dalal Street]] welcome the New Year on a positive note. Many start the New Year with traditional ceremonies and [[Puja (Hinduism)|pujas]]. This tradition has been followed as a ritual for many years.

Muhurat trading is traditionally an occasion for an auspicious beginning to the traditional New Year. Investors place token orders and buy stocks for their children, which are held for the long term and sometimes never sold. Traders normally book their intraday profits, however small they may be.

==Tradition==
Amongst the several communities in West India and Hindu trading communities of north India, the new year begins with Diwali. A puja (ritual) is performed to accounts books and safes on [[Dhanteras]] as well as on Diwali day to signify the beginning of a new year. A coin - which signifies wealth - is placed on the account books before the puja. Stock brokers perform 'Lakshmi Puja' at the exchange and the customary Muhurat trading takes place. It is believed that on the night of [[Lakshmi Puja]], the Goddess comes to reside at the place of the puja during which the traders and shopkeepers stay awake with lights burning all night.

As Diwali also marks the beginning of the New Year, it is believed that Muhurat trading on this day brings in wealth and prosperity throughout the year. An auspicious beginning is thus made on the first day of the year.
