Interactive Brokers (IBKR) provides comprehensive reporting tools. For the most accurate import into Trandence, we highly recommend generating a custom CSV file using their Flex Queries feature.
Creating a Flex Query
- Access the Client Portal at interactivebrokers.com and log in.
- From the main menu, navigate to Performance & Reports, then select Flex Queries.
- Locate the Trade Confirmation Flex Query section and click the Create (plus icon) button.
- Name your query (e.g., “Trandence Export”).
- In the Sections area, select Trade Confirmations and check the box to Select All fields (or specifically ensure Account ID, Trade Date, Symbol, Buy/Sell, Quantity, Price, Commission, and Net Cash are included).
- Scroll down to the General Configurations and ensure the format is set to CSV.
- Save the query.
Exporting Your Data
- Return to the Flex Queries page.
- Click the Run (Play icon) button next to your newly created query.
- Select the desired Date Period (e.g., Last 365 Calendar Days).
- Run the report and save the resulting
.csvfile to your computer.
Importing to Trandence
- Open Trandence and navigate to the Trades page.
- Click the Import Trades button in the top right corner and select Upload CSV.
- Choose Interactive Brokers and match your CSV’s timezone.
- Upload your saved file.
- Important: On the Review screen, use the Batch Tags field to assign a custom tag (e.g., “IBKR Account 1”). This is crucial if you track multiple brokerage accounts within Trandence.
- Click Import & Review Summary to finish.
