pain points. Here is how it works:
◦Clients of Zerodha who have a positive track record on their accounts (stars) with us may opt to register on Opentrade. We will select the best traders after careful scrutiny. Their identities will be kept anonymous, and they will all be called by unique star names – Sirius, Canopus, etc.
◦The stars will be tagged based on the nature of their trades – investor, arbitrageur, swing trader, etc.
◦The Quant reports of their trading activities at Zerodha will be made public on the platform.
◦All clients of Zerodha will now have an option to analyze these reports, and follow their favorite stars for a subscription fee that will be shared with the stars.
◦From the time you start following a star, you will get his/her realtime trade updates via SMS/Email and on the platform. You will also be able to track all open positions and holdings of the stars.
◦To ensure privacy, quantities on positions and trade updates will be normalized. Also, trade updates will be limited to only highly liquid contracts – top 500 stocks, and F&O on equity, currency and commodity.
◦You will be able to follow one or multiple stars of your choosing.
By putting up these talented stars on a pedestal, we give them an opportunity to earn an additional stream of revenue and stay focused and profitable in their trading activities. The more profitable this star stays, more number of paying followers he will add, ensuring that the star focuses on using his talent to carefully pick trading and investing opportunities.
As a subscriber, learning from and tracking star traders live should give you the leverage needed to push yourself to be a part of the winning community.
We are going live by end of Jan 2016, if you wish to get on the invite list visit opentrade.in
If you are a profitable trader with a good track record and like to be featured as a star, email us on
Please note: Support for Opentrade will be online-only and the Zerodha support team won’t be able to answer any queries on the phone.
Happy Trading,
