Shares

Recording Transactions

Add a buy or sell from the Shares page; the company's status updates automatically.

Use the Add transaction button on the Shares page to record a trade.

The form

  1. Company — pick from your watchlist (search by name or ticker).
  2. TypePurchase or Sale.
  3. Quantity and Price — the total is calculated for you.
  4. Date — defaults to today.
  5. Notes — optional.

Status side-effect

Saving a transaction updates the company's Status on the Companies table to match the transaction type:

  • a Purchase marks the company as Purchase (you hold it),
  • a Sale marks it as Sale.

Companies you never traded stay Not Invested.

Deleting

Each row's menu offers Delete for corrections. There is no edit yet — delete and re-add if you mistyped.

Record transactions promptly: the Home dashboard's net-invested chart plots them by date, so a complete ledger gives you an accurate curve of your exposure over time.
