Thanks everyone. I am now a Sharesight subscriber. Anyone know how to see daily share price change? I can see value change but not share price

Thanks for the help - it was operator error. I was looking for NZ under N rather than at the top of the list - duh.

Hey team. Needing some advice. I am wanting a way to track my portfolio. I signed up for Sharesight a long time ago, not long after it first came on the market. IMO at that time it was not all that great. So I get rid of it. I am back in the market for something, and I see on this thread there are a lot of quite positive opinions about Sharesight. I am guessing they have greatly improved the software since I last took a look at it, but I would be very interested in people's opinions, positive and negative, and whether there are any other options around. I am increasing the number of trades I do and am trading more and more Ozzie stocks. Thanks in advance.

I use yahoo finance/my portfolio/multiple portfolios to track my shares.

So far I don’t want to PAY for a portfolio manager.
So currently I use Direct Broking for my NZ/Aust stocks....around 35 of them.
And to get around the many shortcomings of DB....I also mirror everything in Yahoo Finance. While good for presentation of current information, Yahoo is useless for transactional data...particularly selling a stock and tracking cash and commissions. Google Finance, now discontinued, was better in that respect. I am hoping that when DB update their software, long promised, that it will be much better. IMO it is currently a dog.
PS I am retired, so have time to do things somewhat manually.

Sharesight is a terrific app, for a measly couple of hundred bucks per annum your whole portfolio trades, management, dividends, splits, consolidations, cash position and reporting are all taken care of. Stuff the spreadsheets and countless hours of data entry and analysis, I’m well over that!

A few negatives for sharesight, I have it and live overseas and pay non resident tax on dividends. Sharesight will tax my divis at NZ rate as my portfolio is predominantly NZX, if i use the country I work in as my country of origin when registering, the portfolio will automatically use that currency for tracking stocks and I don't have a choice in this. 80%of my stocks are NZX.... Therefore its a pain in the butt as currency swings day to day and id rather just have my NZX holdings reported in NZ dollars as that's what I buy them with. As the portfolio is set to NZ dollars I now have to manually adjust every dividend payment to the 10.5% non resident withholding tax. This defeats the purpose of paying someone to maintain and track your portfolio. Also they miss a lot of dividend payments or sometime add double. Expat first world problems know, but i wouldn't use it again if overseas and on different NZ tax rate. these issues should be an easy fix and in 3 years they haven't fixed it. Hello sharesight?
