What is Outcry?

    
Open outcry is a communication method between professionals on a stock exchange or futures exchange which involves shouting and the use of hand signals to transfer information primarily about buy and sell orders. The trading floor where this takes place is called a pit.

Over the years, this method of trading has been replaced by electronic systems. Atharva gives you a chance to live up the ‘Dalaal Street’ of India once again. Participants shall be given an initial corpus of funds and asked to trade among themselves by use of whatever signaling mechanisms they can think of. Be it vocal or hand or any other. Interruptions and shocks shall prevail in the game too. Find the buyer, match your frequency and square the deal.

So start exercising your vocal chords and be ready to shout your lungs out while we get to you three hours of nerve-wrecking trading filled with loads of Fun, Frolic and Drama!

The shortlisted teams are called for the final round at TAPMI during Atharva in January.
