Creating a New Asset

Add a stock, future, crypto pair, or other instrument to your asset list.

Key takeaways

  • New assets are added from Journal → Assets → New (form at /workspace/assets/new).
  • Each asset needs a name, ticker, type (stock/future/crypto/forex/etc.), and optional exchange.
  • Saved assets become selectable when logging trades and entries.
  • Use the same ticker convention everywhere (e.g. always "BTC-USD") so per-asset reports stay clean.

Assets are the instruments you trade - a stock symbol, futures contract, crypto pair, or anything you want to journal against.

  1. From the sidebar open Journal → Assets.
  2. Click New. The form opens at /workspace/assets/new.
  3. Enter a name (e.g. "Apple"), ticker (e.g. "AAPL"), pick the type (stock, future, crypto, forex, etc.), and the exchange if known.
  4. Save. The asset is now selectable when you log new trades and entries.

Tip: use the same ticker convention everywhere (e.g. always "BTC-USD" rather than mixing "BTCUSD" and "BTC/USD"). Consistent naming makes per-asset performance reports cleaner.
