Frequently asked questions

If your question is not covered on this page, don’t hesitate to send us an email.

Why can’t I find the security I want to add?

Profit already lists the most popular stocks and ETFs. If your search doesn’t return the security you’re after, simply add it manually using the Add Manually button.

How do I find the ticker symbol for a security?

You can use the Stocks app included with macOS, iOS, and iPadOS to look up the correct ticker symbol. The trading currency depends on the exchange: if the ticker symbol doesn’t contain a period, it’s most likely quoted in USD; a symbol ending in .F or .DE is denominated in EUR; and a symbol ending in .L is usually quoted in GBP (sometimes GBX).

Can I import transactions from my broker?

Yes. Profit can import transactions directly from Interactive Brokers or Trade Republic. For any other broker, simply use the generic CSV import. Let us know if you’d like first-class import support for your broker.

How can I disable syncing with iCloud?

You can disable syncing with iCloud in system settings. Refer to Change which apps sync and store data with iCloud on Apple’s website for more information.
