What can I track in Sharesight?
An overview of every investment type you can track in Sharesight, and how to add each one.
How to search and add an investment
Sharesight supports thousands of securities across global exchanges. To add a holding:
- From your portfolio, click Add investments.
- Search by ticker code (e.g. VAS, AAPL) or company/fund name.
- Select the correct security from the results and click Add holding.
- Enter your trade details and click Save.
If your investment isn't found in the search, you can add it as a Custom Investment and manage prices manually. Most unlisted assets — property, term deposits, precious metals — use this approach.
See Supported Stock Exchanges, Mutual Funds, Managed Funds, ETFs, etc. for the full list of supported markets.
Equities
Listed shares (ASX & international)
Shares listed on a supported stock exchange are tracked automatically — Sharesight fetches daily prices and handles corporate actions.
Supported exchanges include ASX, NZX, NYSE, NASDAQ, LSE, TSX, and many more. See Supported exchanges for the full list.
ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds)
ASX-listed ETFs are fully supported. Sharesight automatically populates estimated tax components during the year, and for supported providers applies the finalised Annual Tax Statement at EOFY.
See Australian AMIT tax components for how ETF tax reporting works.
LICs (Listed Investment Companies)
LICs are traded on the ASX like ordinary shares and are tracked automatically. AMIT tax components for LICs are not auto-updated — you will need to enter them manually at EOFY.
REITs and stapled securities
A-REITs and infrastructure trusts listed on the ASX are supported automatically for price tracking. Distributions are classified as trust income and require manual AMIT entry at EOFY.
See Stapled securities for how to handle their tax treatment.
Managed funds (unlisted)
Unlisted managed funds are not listed on an exchange — you invest directly with the fund manager or through a platform. Add them as a Custom Investment and update unit prices manually or via bulk upload.
AMIT tax components must be entered manually from your Annual Tax Statement. See Managed funds AMIT guide.
See Supported managed funds for a list of managed funds available in Sharesight.
Unit trusts
Unit trusts operate similarly to managed funds and are tracked the same way — add as a custom investment if unlisted, or search by ticker if listed.
Property
Investment property
Sharesight does not connect to property valuations, but you can track investment properties as a Custom Investment by manually updating the estimated value periodically.
See Investment property for a step-by-step setup guide.
REITs
Listed property trusts (REITs) are tracked automatically as equities — see REITs and stapled securities above.
Cash and fixed income
Cash accounts
Sharesight has a dedicated Cash Account feature to track cash holdings alongside your investment portfolio. You can log deposits, withdrawals, and interest payments.
See Cash account to get started.
Term deposits and fixed interest
Term deposits and other fixed interest securities can be tracked using the Custom Investment feature, set to the Fixed Interest investment type.
See Term deposit for a setup guide.
Bonds
Listed bonds on supported exchanges can be searched and added like shares. Unlisted bonds can be tracked as a custom investment.
Alternatives
Cryptocurrencies
Many popular cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.) are supported directly — search by name or ticker. For unsupported coins, use a Custom Investment.
See Cryptocurrencies for setup instructions.
Precious metals
Gold, silver, and other precious metals can be tracked as a Custom Investment using spot price or your own valuation.
See Precious metals for a setup guide.
Foreign currency
You can add foreign currency holdings to track their value in your portfolio's base currency.
See Add Foreign Currency for setup instructions.
Superannuation
Your superannuation balance can be tracked as a Custom Investment to include it in your overall net worth view.
See Superannuation for setup instructions.
Other instruments
Warrants and stock options
ASX-listed warrants can be searched and added directly. Employee stock options and unlisted warrants are added as custom investments.
See Warrants and stock options for how to record grants, exercises, and expirations.
Dividend Reinvestment Plans (DRP)
If your broker automatically reinvests dividends as new shares, Sharesight can track this automatically.
See Track dividend reinvestments for setup instructions.
