Thanks Roy
Although I have not done it, what I meant by "Is the only way to, one by
one, build a multi stock composite?" is what the Formula Primer calls "Roll
Your own Indexes" on Page 64.
Sounds like a lot of work when you want more than a few custom indices.
Is your approach to "simulating the Security() function with MS EOD" more
efficient?
Thanks
David
