About

I grew up in a Marwari joint family where conversations about money and markets were dinner table regulars. That early exposure sparked a curiosity that continues to shape my work today. After completing CA, CS, and an MBA from IIM Indore, I began my career trading commodities—learning not just through charts and cycles, but through conviction, emotion, and risk. I lead initiatives in finance and markets across multiple domains. I have co-built and today run platforms like Kredent (one of India’s largest proprietary trading desks), iRage (one of the top Algo Trading firms) , Elearnmarkets (with 3M+ learners), where I mentor students, working professionals, and beginner-level traders helping them build skills, discipline, and a long-term approach to markets. And, StockEdge—used by over 5 million Indians to navigate markets with confidence. I am sure there are many more to come. I also trade and invest and have been an active stock market participant for the past 20+ years. Do follow me on StockEdge Social, where I share investment ideas regularly! I teach on YouTube and host a podcast with a combined following of 1M+, driven by a simple love for learning and sharing knowledge. All of it led by one belief: stock market participation should be simpler, sharper, and more accessible to everyday Indians. More about my journey: www.vivekbajaj.com
