Editing Asset Details

Update name, ticker, type, or description on an existing asset.

Key takeaways

  • Edit an asset by opening it at /workspace/assets/:id and clicking Edit.
  • Name, ticker, type, exchange, and description are all editable.
  • Edits propagate to every existing trade that references the asset.
  • Changing the type on an asset with a long history can shift older trades' categorization in reports.

To edit an existing asset:

  1. Open Journal → Assets and click the asset name to open its detail page at /workspace/assets/:id.
  2. Click Edit.
  3. Update the name, ticker, type, exchange, or description. Save when done.

Changes apply across all trades that reference the asset - if you rename "AAPL" to "Apple Inc.", every existing trade picks up the new label without you needing to touch them.

Be careful changing the type on an asset with a long history: it can shift how older trades are categorized in performance reports.
