Creating custom ETF (aka pies on other platforms)
add ability to create your custom ETF, which can be bought and sold directly. without having to manually buy and sell each stock manually. users can define their own percentage, and share pies with other users so people can follow your trading strategy easily for maximum gains
A Pie is a portfolio that groups several investments into one. Instead of buying each stock or ETF separately, you create a “Pie” with different “slices.” Each slice represents an investment with a target percentage. This setup helps you keep your chosen allocation automatically.
Trading 212 offers three types of Pies:
Custom Pies: Build your own portfolio by choosing the investments yourself.
Model Pies: Invest in ready-made, diversified portfolios designed by professional asset managers.
Social Pies: Discover and copy Pies created by other investors in the Trading 212 community.

This is exactly what we plan to do in our phase 2. Our inspiration has been India’s Smallcase, which has a very similar idea of creating different baskets.
Each ETF/basket people create a platform will also show the returns, drawdown, overall risk, etc, on the basket for other people to see.
The challenge we see here is that there have to be enough baskets for it to work. We’re sure that there are users who would be looking for such baskets and like to subscribe to them, but not sure if there are enough people on the other side who are expert enough to have a decent number of baskets on the platform to choose from. That’s why we’re waiting for enough customers, engagements, and activities, before we can launch this.
But yeah, super excited about this!
