What is the Boom 500 index?

Boom 500 is a synthetic index that simulates price action with occasional upward spikes. It’s ideal for momentum or breakout strategies, as it randomly generates upward “booms” at regular intervals based on a fixed algorithm. Think of it as a fast-paced chart with sharp upside moves.
