How to add dividends

We support manually adding dividends.


  1. Go to the trades page.
  2. Click “Add trade”
  3. Enter a stock symbol
  4. Click Dividend
  5. Select an option


a. Cash (Creates a closed position with 100% profit, zero cost basis)
b. Re-invest (Creates an open position for the shares received, zero cost basis)


  1. We will try to pull a list of dividends from our database


a. If data is not available you can select your own payment date
b. If a date is available we will also set the price for you and calculate how many shares you should receive based on your total stock holdings prior to that ex-dividend date.
