  1. Exactly what I have been looking for! You are amazing buddy!! Is it possible to include XIRR at individual stock level for comparison purposes. I could add overall portfolio XIRR, but couldn't get it calculated at stock level.

    1. Thank you for your feedback and suggestion!

      It's the first time I hear about XIRR. I'll learn about it and see if I can add it to the stock portfolio tracker. If so, I'll publish a new post for it.

    2. Hi, I hope you are doing well!

      I just want to let you know that thanks to your suggestion, I just published a series of posts about how to use XIRR and XNPV functions in Google Sheets to calculate the internal rate of return (IRR) and the net present value (NPV) of a stock portfolio at different levels (stock level and portfolio level).

      Please check them out below. Enjoy reading and thanks again for your suggestion!

Compute cost basis of stocks with FIFO method in Google Sheets

Compute cost basis of stocks with FIFO method in Google Sheets

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

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

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.

Time value of money, Present Value (PV), Future Value (FV), Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR)

Time value of money, Present Value (PV), Future Value (FV), Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR)

Why do I use my current money to invest in the stock market? Because I expect to have more money in the future. Why do I need more money in the future than now? Because of many reasons, the same amount of money will have less purchasing power than today. Therefore my investment needs to generate more money than today to protect my purchasing power in the future. That is the main concept of the time value of money where one dollar today is worth more than one dollar in the future.
