Build a Stock Basket, Set the Weights, and Backtest It in Minutes
Building a basket should take minutes, not a spreadsheet afternoon. Add your tickers, set the weights, and Indexes backtests the basket against real history and tracks it against the S&P 500, all as analysis.
Educational only · Never places a trade
In short
To build a stock basket with Indexes, you add the tickers you want, set a weight for each, and Indexes combines them into one named index in minutes. You can weight the basket equally or size each holding by conviction, and Indexes immediately treats the set as a single index rather than a list of separate tickers. It backtests that weighting against real historical data, showing hypothetical historical performance next to the S&P 500 so you can see how the basket would have moved through past markets. Then you track the basket over time and read its gap to the benchmark. Indexes is informational and educational only, not investment advice. It never places a trade, never connects to a brokerage, and never holds money, so there is no account minimum and it is available globally. Past performance does not guarantee future results, and a backtest is a hypothetical view of the past, not a forecast.
Why it fits
Investors who want to assemble a weighted stock basket quickly, backtest it against history, and track it against a benchmark as analysis.
From tickers to index in minutes
Add your tickers, set the weights, and Indexes rolls them into a single index right away, so building the basket is a few minutes, not an afternoon.
Weight it your way
Go equal-weight or size each holding by conviction, then backtest that exact weighting against real history as hypothetical historical performance.
Track it against the market
Follow the basket against the S&P 500 over time. Indexes analyzes only: no trades, no brokerage, no account minimum, no money held.
Questions
Build a stock basket, answered
How long does it actually take to build a stock basket?
Minutes, not an afternoon. You add tickers, set weights, and Indexes immediately treats the set as one index you can backtest and track, no spreadsheet formulas required.
Do I need to know how to weight stocks correctly?
No single "correct" weighting exists. You can start equal-weight, which splits exposure evenly, or size each holding by conviction, and then backtest either approach against real history to see how it would have behaved.
Can I change the weights after I build the basket?
Yes, you can adjust weights and re-run the backtest as often as you like before deciding on a version to track going forward.
Build your index and see how it backtests
Bundle stocks or crypto into your own weighted index, backtest it against real market history, and track it against the S&P 500 or BTC. Indexes is educational and informational only, and it never places a trade.
