Connect your Interactive Brokers account

This integration is for retail clients only. However Sharesight do support multi-account IB structures such as advisors.

Note: It’s important that the base currency of your IB account matches your Sharesight portfolio’s base currency. If these are different, then any foreign trades will be imported into Sharesight with incorrect exchange rates.

Once you have completed these setup steps, your trading activity will be automatically imported into your selected Sharesight portfolio on a daily basis.

Note: IB only provide your trading activity for the last 7 days to Sharesight. You’ll need to manually add trades that are older than 7 days into your portfolio.

How to connect your Interactive Brokers (IB) account to Sharesight:

1 - Send an email to: reportingintegration@interactivebrokers.com, include your IB account # and request the Sharesight feed.

2 - You should receive back from Interactive Brokers a user name and in a separate email a password specific to this integration only.
