Sharesight product updates – March 2025

by Ben Clendon, Head of Product, Sharesight | Mar 9th 2025

The bulk of our attention this month was spent on several exciting initiatives I’ll be able to discuss in more detail in our April update. Despite these projects drawing most of our focus, we made good progress with our ever expanding broker support, some UX improvements to our trade form, signup and login screens as well as introducing crypto to our new drawdown risk report.

March Product updates 2025

New functionality / enhancements

  • Introduced a trade source field on the Trade form. This field is pre-populated with the original source of the trade and can also be manually updated
  • Introduced the ability to search for cash accounts within a portfolio, in addition to regular holdings
  • Some small UX additions, such as the new plans badge now appearing in the banner for a cohort of our users and small design updates for our login, signup and portfolio sharing screens
  • Expanded the Drawdown risk report to include cryptocurrencies (we use euros as the basis for all maximum drawdown (MDD) calculations for cryptocurrencies).

Broker import functionality

  • Support for three new broker trade confirmations
  • Expanded file support for eight existing brokers
  • Added broker tiles to the brokers page for an additional nine supported brokers, bringing the total count of supported brokers to 240.

You can check the support for your broker here.
