Demo stock investment portfolio tracker with Google Data Studio

As explained in the post Create personal stock portfolio tracker with Google Sheets and Google Data Studio, a personal stock portfolio tracker consists of 2 main elements: a spreadsheet in Google Sheets and an interactive dashboard in Google Data Studio. The dashboard below is built with Google Data Studio and visualizes data stored in the spreadsheet that can be found in the post Demo stock portfolio tracker with Google Sheets.

The dashboard below is not an image, it is a real one and is interactive. You can change some filters to see data from a different perspective. For instance, you can change the date range or select a particular stock.

Compute cost basis of stocks with FIFO method in Google Sheets

Image
After selling a portion of my holdings in a stock, the cost basis for the remain shares of that stock in my portfolio is not simply the sum of all transactions. When selling, I need to decide which shares I want to sell. One of the most common accounting methods is FIFO (first in, first out), meaning that the shares I bought earliest will be the shares I sell first. As you might already know, I use Google Sheets extensively to manage my stock portfolio investment, but, at the moment of writing this post, I find that Google Sheets does not provide a built-in formula for FIFO. Luckily, with lots of effort, I succeeded in building my own FIFO solution in Google Sheets, and I want to share it on this blog. In this post, I explain how to implement FIFO method in Google Sheets to compute cost basis in stocks investing.

Create personal stock portfolio tracker with Google Sheets and Google Data Studio

Image
I have been investing in the stock market for a while. I was looking for a software tool that could help me better manage my portfolio, but, could not find one that satisfied my needs. One day, I discovered that the Google Sheets application has a built-in function called GOOGLEFINANCE which fetches current or historical prices of stocks into spreadsheets. So I thought it is totally possible to build my own personal portfolio tracker with Google Sheets. I can register my transactions in a sheet and use the pivot table, built-in functions such as GOOGLEFINANCE, and Apps Script to automate the computation for daily evolutions of my portfolio as well as the current position for each stock in my portfolio. I then drew some sort of charts within the spreadsheet to have some visual ideas of my portfolio. However, I quickly found it inconvenient to have the charts overlapped the table and to switch back and forth among sheets in the spreadsheet. That's when I came to know the existen...

Compute daily evolutions of a stock portfolio with Google Sheets and Apps Script

Image
When it comes to investment, it is not only important to know the up-to-date state of portfolio but also to track its evolution day by day. We need to know on a specific day, how much money has been invested in the portfolio, the current market value of owned shares, the available cash and the current profit. Visualizing those historical data points on a time-based graph helps us to identify which transactions were good and which were bad. This post shows how to compute automatically those historical data points by using data in Transactions sheet and the built-in GOOGLEFINANCE function of Google Sheets. A sample spreadsheet can be found in this post Demo stock portfolio tracker with Google Sheets . You can take a look at the sample spreadsheet to have an idea of how the data is organized and related. It is possible to make a copy of the spreadsheet to study it thoroughly.

Compute cost basis of stocks with LIFO method in Google Sheets

Image
The Last In, First Out (LIFO) method is an accounting method used to calculate the cost basis of a stock portfolio. It is the opposite of the First In, First Out (FIFO) method, where the oldest shares are sold first. In the LIFO method, the most recent shares are sold first. In the previous post Compute cost basis of stocks with FIFO method in Google Sheets , I explained how to implement FIFO method in Google Sheets to compute cost basis in stocks investing. In this post, I explain how to implement LIFO method in Google Sheets to compute cost basis in stocks investing.

Use SPARKLINE to create 52-week range price indicator chart for stocks in Google Sheets

Image
The 52-week range price indicator chart shows the relative position of the current price compared to the 52-week low and the 52-week high price. It visualizes whether the current price is closer to the 52-week low or the 52-week high price. In this post, I explain how to create a 52-week range price indicator chart for stocks by using the SPARKLINE function and the GOOGLEFINANCE function in Google Sheets.

Stock Portfolio Tracker Dashboard With Google Data Studio

Image
In the series of building personal stock portfolio tracker, we have learned how to use Google Sheets to register transactions . We have then used the pivot table and GOOGLEFINANCE function to compute the latest position of the stock portfolio . We have made a step further to use Apps Scripts to compute automatically and daily the stock portfolio's evolution . However, after all, we have several tables of data as the result which do not tell any story yet. We need to present those data in graphs to understand the portfolio's performance and make improvements accordingly. We can effectively plot graphs in different aspects directly in Google Sheets as it provides many charting tools. However, in my experience, having charts and data in the same spreadsheet is not very convenient because charts and tables tend to overlap each other and of lack of interactivity. We should have a dedicated dashboard to have an overview of the stock portfolio and we can do it greatly with Google Data...

Slice array in Google Sheets

Image
Many functions in Google Sheets return an array as the result. However, I find that there is a lack of built-in support functions in Google Sheets when working with an array. For example, the GOOGLEFINANCE function can return the historical prices of a stock as a table of two columns and the first-row being headers Date and Close. How can I ignore the headers or remove the headers from the results?
