Here is an easy step by step guide to start WInvesting and jumping on your journey of financial freedom !

What are WeekendInvesting Product Offerings and which one should I choose?

WeekendInvesting runs simple rule based portfolio strategies based on Momentum Investing. We offer you financial research in the form of a model portfolio that you can duplicate into your Demat Accounts through a subscription plan. Your funds and securities always remain secure in your own brokerage account giving you full flexibility and ownership at all times.

We offer our strategies through either the Smallcase platform or through Universal products. The difference between the two options is not that of strategy. The strategy remains the same, the key difference lies in the execution.

Smallcase Strategies

  • These are the strategies that provided through the Smallcase platform that is linked to top brokerage houses.
  • This platform helps in duplicating our model portfolio on your Demat account while having the full ownership of the funds in your broker account.
  • Our research recommendations reach you directly in Smallcase in the form of Buy and Sell instructions which can be executed with a single click.
  • The smallcase route uses the linked brokerage account to send in the rebalance orders post Monday market open as “market” orders (not limit orders) in the markets. 
  • Smallcase fees and charges can be understood in the blog linked here.

Universal Strategies

  • The research for these strategies are provided through a Google Sheet for the user to then use this research to trade manually.
  • The user here has full flexibility of execution not only which broker to use but how the order will be sent into the system.
  • A limit order or a partial order can be gradually eased into the system without disrupting price.
  • We also provide handholding in creating your own google sheets to manage your portfolio with manuals and videos that can help you come to speed quickly.

Which WI Strategy is right for me?
