How to start trading shares – click by click

If you have an ASK-account in DNB, you already have access. Go directly to the next step.

• If you don’t already have access to our equity trading service, you can order access here.

• The access is given within a few minutes.

• Log in with your BankID (national identity number).

  Follow the instructions.

• When you are logged in:

  Select “Savings and investments” in the top menu, then ‘Equity trading service’.

To trade stocks, you need a separate account from which the purchase amount is deducted and where the settlement for sold shares is deposited. You can have several trading accounts.

• All equity trading customers automatically receive a trading account.

  To trade shares, you will need to use this account, or your share savings account (ASK) if you have one.

• Not sure what the account number is? - Search for any share in equity trading, click “buy” and the accounts you have will show up at the top of the purchase window. (You don’t need to make a purchase to see the account number).

• Transfer the amount you want to trade shares for in to the trading account.

  This is done in the same way as with any transfer between accounts.

Search for the name of the company you want to buy shares in. You'll find the search field at the top right inside the equity trading platform.

• Click on the company name. Then “Buy”.

• Fill in the number of shares you want (volume) at the price you are willing to give (Max price). Set an expiry date for your bid (valid another).

  NB! Check that you have enough money in the trading account

• If the stock exchange is open and someone in the market is willing to sell you the number of shares you want, at the price you want to pay, the purchase takes place immediately.

• Once the purchase is made, you will be sent a receipt (closing document).
