Binance API issues are making me trade somewhat blind...CT made me lazy trying to figure percentages manually bites. The way the Alts were pumping it almost didn't matter it was hard to set my sell points so high...now thats a problem I want more of.
Binance is also choking your ability to quickly change sell during a pump...this is intentional by Nance to free up server space.

Can u imagine the money they are making     

I came looking in this thread before purchasing... Not making me feel warm and fuzzy about it.

Also just started having issues with Binance API.  I found this on CoinTracking Support Desk Forum:

"The validity of the key is determined by the exchange.

When the API is overloaded, it breaks off mid transfer. Thus an error message appears even though the key is correct.

We apologize for the inconvenience, but there is little we can do from our side. If no data is given, we can not import anything.

BINANCE HAS AND IS CAUSING API & TRADE ISSUES...
They are trying to stop micro trades and manipulation of pricing. Instead they are screwing up regular traders who happen to trade fast MANUALLY.

May be time to move my portfolio.

CT should not list this thread as a resource if they are not going to monitor it. I DON'T CARE HOW BUSY THEY ARE.

on 12/27 someone commented buying this for API and then finding out Coinbase doesn't work.  I seem to also still have this issue.  I hope this kind of stuff is high on their priority to fix instead of only doing help tx. Maintaince of the software should be ongoing.

people keep asking if anyone from cointracking is here.   I just read on the site (I forget) it was posted 12/30 that they are totally busy with help tickets.   They will not help people with individual set up ?'s or tax ?'s.   Etc Etc.   It said they are working round the clock on support tickets and trainer new customer support.   

I hope they can scale up and make the necessary improvements and fix the broken api from binance.   And the other suggestions from late Dec 2017.  I also bought Pro and waiting for API data to load.  Fingers crossed. With out this it said I had 16 bitcoin.  I WISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just bought the software (lifetime Pro version). I am managing 2 portfolios and want to report separately on them for tax reasons but would also like to see an aggregate total of both on the dashboard. I have one of the portfolios currently setup in cointracking accurately. Is there a way to add the other and report on them separately for tax purposes? If not, what strategy do you recommend with the software? Please let me know. Thanks!

Hi, I know Cointracking doesnt have like-kind exchange feature currently but I think it's a needed option for people that wanted to use like-kind exchange for all their previous tax years. I think this is a very important feature atleast for me and I'm sure many people will need this too

I am also having issues with Binance API import. Keys returning invalid or connection error.

I imported about 19000 trades.

I have about 3 years of trading to get in the software. I paid for the premium package.

My gains seem quite high.

Do I need to import all my wallets to get these gains reduced?

I mean, am I missing any critical info other than the trades from my exchanges to calculate my tax?

please let me know if you need more than that

After the server upgrade a few hours ago, the service runs like shit ....My landing page is : (Un)realized Gains . Until now , everything was good, now the page gets stucked and only shows 1 coin ( and i have a lot ) . Once, after importing soe trades from bittrex, the coins were imported , but the cost was 0.
Admin, please fix the service ASAP as we depend on it to know the positions we held.

Hello

Do you can add exchenge coinexchange please ?

Thank you.

Are there any CT staff monitoring this thread....HELLLO

API import seems buggy.  I have that problem that has been mentioned several times about API key being invalid.  I've double checked with exchanges and key is activated and correct.  API imports don't seem to import automatically and if so it's ususally only once a day. I was under the impression that the system checks every few minutes as stated on your site. Also it seems like slow page loading times for this paid service.

Sorry if this was asked but searched and cant find anything. I bought some Bitquence. The symbol was BQX. The name and symbol have been changed to ETHOS. This is not being reflected in my account. What do I have to do to get it to work? Thanks.

Hi - thanks for a great app

Would be great to support eToro transactions.

Would you be able to help with what I do when I do a Sell transaction on eToro to manually enter it.  When you do this then it is done as a CFD even if you have money in your account.

Let's say for example that you invested $100 in a sell order on DASH and the price of dash was 804.69 so you are buying 0.125 DASH for $219.84 and you want it to go down so that you make a profit but instead of going down it goes up to 908.28 and you make a loss of $28.30.  How would you record this on cointracking?

Secondly can you check I am doing this right as the amount calculated when you expand out doesn't appear to be right.  I'm guessing not as my total value of coins is totally wrong.  

The way it is recorded on etoro is ACTION e.g. buy dash, sell dash, widthdraw then how much invested (in dollars) then units then open price open time close and close price.  I can then click on it and get more info which will also tell me the profit or loss on the trade.

So if I'm putting a manual purchase I will do
date as the date that the trade was opened
Amount from the units column e.g. .95 and then DASh as the Currency
Then if I bought .95 dash and it cost $668.80 dollars then I would put in Amount in the sell field as 668.80 and Currency as USD
With eToro you are charged via a variable spread rather than a trading fee so not sure how you would record that as there is no record of the spread I can see in my history?
If I then check the edit asset value it shows a purchase value of USD as 674.38763630 (674.39 USD @ 709.88172242 USD per DASH) whereas the actual price was $737.20 per Dash but I can't see what I would do to change that

If I multiply .95 x 737.20 (open price) I get $700.34 but purchaes price was $668.80 so should I record ($700.34 - $668.80) as my fee i.e. $31.54?

Finally need to know what to do when the trade is closed out

If I close out DASH at a rate of 827.87 then what I thought to do was
Goto the second page and add the invested amount to the P/L $85.84 to get a total of $754.64

I then put in $754.64 as buy amount with currency USD
What would I then put in Sell amount - is it still 0.95 units of DASH?
If I multiple 0.95 x the rate of 827.87 then I get $786.4765 so then would I put the difference between that and the final amount as the fee ($786.4765 - $754.64) - $31.8365 and USD?

If I do this the sale value in USD shows as 811.32591251 with 811.33 USD @ 854.02727633 USD per dash but the actual sale price was at a rate of 827.87 and again I can't see how you can change?

I'll also email this to support as may be too long to answer here but I thought if answered here might help other people in etotoro or on a platform that supports CFD's/sell orders

Thanks in Advance

Hi, new to cointracking and am enjoying it so far. Im trying to add BCH "the easy way" on the "enter coins" page but the values in USD don't seem to show up. I think Im probably missing something here.

Will you be adding automatic pricing from date and time for BCH soon?

Having issues with Exodus Wallet. Anyone having problem with it?
