Each platform tucks the export in a slightly different place. Here's exactly where to look.

Use the original broker file where possible. Screenshots and copied tables are less reliable.

03AChoose the right file

Upload chooser

If you only export one file, make it the transaction history CSV. Use statement PDFs for reconciliation and holdings CSVs for current allocation.

Best default rule: start with transaction history, then add a holdings snapshot or Trading 212 monthly statements if you want stronger current-position checks.

04Good to know

The transaction file does the most.

Dividends, fees and FX are all reconstructed from your full transaction history, so when in doubt, export the longest date range you can.

Broker export guides FAQ

01

Which export should I start with if my broker offers several files?

Start with the full transaction history CSV when possible. It is usually the best base file for dividends, returns, cash movements, fees and tax-style summaries.

02

When should I use a holdings or valuation CSV instead?

Use a holdings or valuation CSV when you mainly care about current allocation, concentration and rebalancing rather than full account history.

03

Do monthly statement PDFs work for every broker?

No. In this app, Trading 212 monthly statement PDFs are explicitly supported. Other brokers in the current guide set rely mainly on CSV exports.

04

What files should I avoid uploading?

Avoid screenshots, copied tables and edited spreadsheets. The safest path is to upload the original broker CSV or PDF export directly.
