ShareSight for UK tax information


Recommended Posts

  • 4 months later...

I would also like to know if anyone uses ShareSight for their UK tax returns. IG Is not listed as a partner broker on their site so it could actually be quite cumbersome to upload data to Sharesight (Saxo and CMC are partners - i wonder why IG isn't?  Does Sharesight also work with CFDs?

I've been told IG UK are looking into Sharesight integration but that it could take a while... Unfortunately Sharesight does not provide UK CGT report - they do provide a sold securities report but it does not use the share matching rules (section 104) and thus should not be be used when filing out your tax return...I generally download the .csv trade file from IG UK 'history' and upload it directly into Sharesight but it would be a lot easier if IG UK could integrate with Sharesight and even better if Sharesight / IG UK could provide UK CGT reports!

    • Lots of Open Source Stuff on Github, I've worked with the API for probably 10 years or so.    https://github.com/tg12
    • That is called "algorithmic trading" or "algotrading" and a wealth of books/videos is available about this subject, e.g. the /r/algotrading subreddit.
    • I recently came across a trading bot carnival on Bitget where users are encouraged to trade EIGEN, CATI, TON, and MOODENG to share from $50,000. Though this looks enticing but I was confused, is bot trading different from copy trading? He explained that both methods trade for you automatically. Specifically, copy trading lets you copy the trade of an experienced trader, whereas bot trading follows set rules or algorithms to make trades. He recommended both as great starting points for beginners like me to get a feel for the market. I recently started exploring copy trading and now I need to add bot trading along since I want to try out the carnival and if it is better I might stick to it or what do you think?
