Thank God, It’s Friday! Ashwin, the marketing head of a multi-national FMCG company in Mumbai and a closet day trader, is looking forward to an idyllic weekend in Alibaug with his wife. He is also within inches of laying his hands on a premium beach property and a swanky top-end SUV. Life is looking up. The time is 2.30 pm.   
But then, his Blackberry bings. The message: Cough up in 60 minutes or else... The stuff of nightmares. Even as Ashwin grapples with the reality of his now on, now off lover wanting a share of his nest egg, the phone bings yet again. The rivals have done it again, and now his arse is on the line unless he can figure out a presentation in 60 minutes or else...   
And then, the Blackberry just does not stop. The RBI has changed the repo rate. Governments across the globe and especially the US and India are changing IT laws impacting IT stock and a trading scandal could open up a can of infrastructure companies worms – all three mean Ashwin can kiss his money goodbye. Unless he can manage an about face in the next 60 minutes before Dalal Street closes shop at 3.30 pm.  In 60 minutes, Ashwin’s instincts are tested to the hilt. The longest hour has the power to change every dimension of his life. Will he be able to close his positions and emerge with enough money to sustain his financial commitments? Or, will the rollercoaster of emotions, challenges, trials, fears and factors outside his control make him a victim of the market?  All it takes is 60 minutes.
