Portfolio Overview

Portfolio allows you to record your trading activity. It gives you a realistic interpretation of your trading performance including adjustments for trading costs against 15min delayed prices.

Don’t use portfolio to follow share prices. Portfolio prices are in real time for UK Stocks but you will be timed out if you don't have a Premium Subscription.

Portfolio is not a portal to a broker. Adding a buy is merely an entrance in a data base it will not mean that you have actually committed yourself to buy or sell anything.

This means you can set up fantasy portfolios and test out your trading theories systematically.


Portfolio Help Overview

Portfolio section
