Manually Record Trades - Cash

Considerations

Use this page to manually record a cash amount. GainsKeeper automatically adjusts your cash amount for trading activity with a trade date equal to or greater than the date entered on this page. That is, GainsKeeper automatically adds the proceeds of sell transactions and subtracts the cost of buy transactions from your cash amount. If you need to adjust or reset your cash amount, re-enter a new cash amount and a new starting date.
