The path to portfolio manager typically takes 12+ years. Publish a free paper strategy alongside school or work, under your own name or a pseudonym, and take it live when you're ready to manage real money.

Name it, build the portfolio, write your pitch. We take care of the rest and put it in front of investors.

Example, for illustration
Brokerage, custody, trading, compliance. What used to take $500K+ and a dozen providers now runs in one place.
Portfolio managers at traditional firms take home 10-20% of what they generate. On Oval you keep 100% of the fee on your first $1M, and 70-80% after that.
Every strategy is ranked by the same rules, using results Oval calculates itself. No self-reported numbers, so nothing can be faked.
Example strategies, for illustration.
Launching a fund runs $500K+ upfront. Investors with $100K to a few million want a real manager, not a generic portfolio, but can't clear private banking minimums. That's your market.
