We’re excited to reveal a new custom index builder<\/strong> for Strawman — one that will allow you to construct a performance\u00a0index that is based on a specific subset of members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The default Strawman Index<\/a> will, of course, remain unchanged. But the settings are somewhat arbitrary, and may not align with your preferences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To build your own index, navigate to the Companies Page<\/strong> and select the ‘Explore’ tab<\/a>. From there, you can hit ‘Edit Settings<\/strong>‘ to customise your index:\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a variety of ways to select the member portfolios that will be used in constructing your custom index.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, you can ask the system to only consider the members you follow. Or, those that have outperformed the market over various timeframes. Similarly, you can select the top ranked members across the various performance leaderboards.\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You can select whatever combination you like, but be aware that these filters are additive<\/em>. That is, the system will only select members that satisfy ALL the requirements you set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you like, you can also manually add or remove specific members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you’re happy, just click ‘Back to custom portfolio<\/strong>‘ to see the results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
