Step Index

Definition

The simplest synthetic index that moves in fixed 0.1 increments with exactly 50% probability of moving up or down on each tick. It represents a pure random walk and is ideal for learning risk management.

Example

The Step Index moved up 0.1, then down 0.1, then up 0.1 — each tick is a completely independent coin flip.
