Use Sharesight’s Trade Confirmation Emails feature for ongoing trades

Sharesight’s Trade Confirmation Emails feature allows you to automatically sync any ongoing trades to your Sharesight portfolio. By simply having your broker’s trade confirmations forwarded to your unique Sharesight email address, all of your trades are synced to your portfolio, inclusive of corporate actions such as dividends, mergers and stock splits, with no effort on your part.

We need your help to add more brokers!

If your broker is not yet on Sharesight’s list of supported brokers, let us know by leaving us a message in the chat interface located at the bottom-right of Sharesight. What we will need is some sample buy and sell trade confirmations (email or PDF), the email the broker sends them from and the subject line of the emails.

We only require a handful of sample documents to support a new broker, so reach out today if you want to see yours added!
