Customers can easily add, edit, and delete portfolios from the Portfolio Home Screen (accessed by clicking on the Omega Point logo in the top-left corner).
Creating a portfolio is the first step before Uploading Position to a Portfolio.
Add Portfolio
To begin, click on "+" in the top-right corner to add a new portfolio to the account.
Provide a name that is between 3-50 characters long and that does not include any special characters. Only alphanumerical, _ (underscores), and spaces are allowed.
Set a risk model, a description, and select if you would like positions to rollover to the current data (in the case of portfolios that do not have any current date information). More information in the below section.
After creating a portfolio, you have the option to upload positions through a UI upload wizard.
Once a portfolio has been added, the portfolio appears in the list of portfolios.
Edit Portfolio
