We're not a Wall Street trading desk. I'm Jorge — just a dad, with two kids, a partner, a mortgage, a dog, and almost no quiet time to think — except early mornings before the house wakes up, or late at night once the kids are down.

I've spent 20 years building financial models and data systems for a living. None of that made it easier to watch my own portfolio.

I used to spend that time — and way more of it than I'd admit — staring at charts. It wasn't just the hours. It became an obsession: checking prices between meetings, lying awake running scenarios, feeling my stomach drop every time the market moved against me. Between the job, the kids, and trying to trade like a professional on the side, something always gave. I needed a way to keep trading without it running my life.

So I built Finactiq for myself first — just to get my time back. What used to take hours now takes ten minutes: the screeners surface the stocks worth watching, one email tells me what to do with them, and I close the laptop.

If your life looks anything like mine, this is for you.
