All of the ETFs have changed components or at least XBI and IBB have. I will update some day and may reduce amount of info on the page. I will still keep the key movers, etc, which is all I use it for and I think Ox may be the only other daily user and I think he uses it like I do. All I will remove is the share count info. I will keep % weight in index (at my update) as it is a straight paste job! I hope to create 3 more portfolios with a new summary page: Robo 40 - the one I am now using for timing (this will just be daily tracker though as main calcs now done in Excel), Top 30/40 by mkt cap, and a Bottom 30/40 by market cap. I might try to have a $1 billion club group for madcaps. Purpose of this is to compare the different slices. I will use no brainpower to create the last 2 or 3 - simply do it from the master list. I probably will thrown out pharmas and generics though (AZN, TEVA, VRX, etc.), at least from large caps. As for other projects, I am reducing and simplifying analysis. I am using Robo 40 for breadth work only. Most quick studies are either FBT or XBI. And I may use IBB from time to time. I will keep detailed analysis files (% A MAs, A/D line) only for Robo 40 and FBT and maybe XBI broken into 2 files. ARMS is likely to be the same groupings. I have ability to do quick breadth studies with a new quickie downloader just created so can do one offs too (only downloads close right now but may shift it to let me input what to choose - giving ability to get opens for gaps or volume for ARMS or VWAPs. It is a simple file - just enormous and thousands of formulas have to be adapted (and no, I could not use the simple creation tool of copying 1 formula globally because Google Sheets pulls in date info with each field and so each input (and output) has to be every other column. I only want to spend the time of taking an input column of tickers and dates and creating formulas across once. I then have other formulas to fix a Google problem of skipping data for dates not traded (data and CPU intensive and in need of either more refined formulas than I am using OR that date field to allow some pasting). I then create a new sheet stripping the date info. So it sounds easy and all but lots of work went in to making it easy and useful. Adding actual analysis behind it just is too much. I have stripped the levels of analysis done on some of the files above and separated XBI into two so I think this is all manageable. The VWAP file XBI and IBB is still available at the link posted. I am open to suggestions! Please!
