My new venture: Moneyoga
It’s time to share the news that since I quit the comfortable world of monthly paychecks, I’ve co-founded a new venture: Moneyoga. The idea is an amalgamation of the following:
- A data & system based (aka quantitative) approach for Indian markets
- A strong dose of transparency - full disclosure of the risk/reward history of every trading strategy, and
- A real investment community - not to be confused with your typical messageboards, where the information content & value are inversely proportional to the number of messages
My partner in this experiment is Deepak Shenoy (site, blog) - both of us decided it was time to go full-time with our stock market interests. Deepak has been an entrepreneur before, but for me this is all brand new. The initial rush is slowly wearing off, as I realize how much work there is for us to do - whether its managing the company accounts, buying hardware, writing code, raising funds, thinking about various revenue strategies, doing PR, printing business cards, increasing my caffeine intake, . . . . the list is endless. But boy - am I glad I am doing this!
As for Moneyoga, here’s the site & blog. Given its recent birth, it will be a few weeks before you see a whole lot of activity. We are engaged in developing a prototype asap, and will keep everyone posted.
Meanwhile, if you want to get involved in any way - helping us find investors, becoming or referring an employee, or beta testing the prototype - just shoot us an email.
