I have my trading 212 account in yahoo finance - you can build a portfolio in yahoo finance. Iā€™ve checked my numbers over and over again. The number of shares accurate, the avg cost are accurate and the current market prices is accurate. Itā€™s a very new portfolio Iā€™ve started.

Iā€™m currently down .42% in trading 212 but according to yahoo finance, Iā€™m up 1.83% exchange rates are also applied in yahoo finance. Iā€™ve also noticed the results seem to be much more volatile, is the introduction of exchange rates the cause?

Any insight into this would be great.

Yeah iā€™ve encountered the same issue. they never match. but the different is less than 2 or 3% mostly so I thought hey i will not waste any more time to make them match. If you have OCD then thatā€™s quite a big pain :frowning:

You need to do that by your self on excel or paper and pencil and you will find out the problem.

The numberā€™s arenā€™t wrong, iā€™m just trying to understand why trading 212 just seems to be worse off in terms of returns and is it due to the exchange rates being applied?
