Very nice. Will the next be Saxo Bank? :)
Conor MacNeil
Jute Planarian: Hey Lars, the next likely integrations are likely to be Fidelity and Addepar.

✨ Now Live: Interactive Brokers (IBKR) Integration
We’ve expanded our integrations to include IBKR, meaning you can now import accounts directly from IBKR and analyse them inside Koyfin Client Portfolios.
You can set up an IBKR integration by heading to the Integrations page under profile settings.
The "Connect" button will redirect you to an article on how to set up the integration.
Read more about how to integrate with IBKR with Koyfin below.
Conor MacNeil
Hi folks, the IBKR integration will be released later today.
At this time, it's only available to Advisor Core and Advisor Pro users due to the fact that we only support integrations in Client Portfolios (and not My Portfolio).
Conor MacNeil
Also, we will be looking to test the integration in a week or two with some beta users. If anyone wants to be a beta tester, please contact me at conor.macneil@koyfin.com
Please note: We will only be offering beta access to users on an Advisor Core or Advisor Pro plan.

Conor MacNeil will this work for US equity options portfolios too or only US stocks?
Conor MacNeil
Celadon Sturgeon: Mostly yes. Koyfin doesn't natively support options. We are actually looking for users with exposure to bonds or options to be beta testers so we can test it.
What it will do:
• With integrations, we ingest non-supported instruments (e.g options, corp bonds, etc) and present them in the portfolio with ticker, name, value, cost, and essential information.
• These positions will be registered as holdings and be included in exposure and P/L analysis.
• Without being overly technical, we are in effect creating a custom data series to mimic the actual asset.
What it won't do:
• These holdings will not have a time series of price, so they will be a static snapshot of the exposure and P/L on that data.
• It won't update the price intraday (because we don't provide that data).
Example:
• You import an account that owns options.
• Those options contracts, and their details, will be imported into the portfolio with all essential information.
• You will need to refresh the account data each day to update the data for those options, however.

Conor MacNeil thanks for working on this. I sent an email.

Conor MacNeil would you import greeks (delta) data as well from IBKR ? And if so, do you guys adjust the delta exposure brought by the options in the portfolio exposure tab ?
For instance, i have 3 lines for the company ABC :
1/ Equity in ABC for cash 10k usd => 10k usd expo
2/ Option1 in ABC for cash 5k usd => 8k usd expo
3/ Option2 in ABC for cash 4k usd => 6k usd expo
Total delta expo in ABC is 10k+8k+6k = $24k
Best
Conor MacNeil
Safflower Eagle: Hey Pierre, at this time I don't believe we import greeks data. We don't technically support options in Koyfin today, but we do create them when imported via custom security to represent their exposure and value. It's more of a snapshot for exposure purposes, however.

A note here, that this pertains to Client Portfolios integration. Client Portfolios is the only area we support integrations currently. They are not supported in My Portfolio at this time.
In the future we may look to support integrations with My Portfolio, but that won't be in the scope of this release plan.

I am glad to see this! We clear trades at IB and Schwab.
Conor MacNeil
Gorgeous Marsupial Sounds like we will have you covered pretty soon then!

Conor MacNeil Awesome- great to see this; also a key benefit would be if you would enable the integration for both retail/advisor accounts. Schwab is available only via advisor/professional investor accounts for example so retail left on the sidelines
Conor MacNeil
Pink Orangutan We are looking at the APIs and general documentation for both the retail and advisor connections. I will circle back when I know with certainty that we are doing both.
Up until now, Client Portfolios support integrations, My Portfolio doesn't.

Conor MacNeil great to see. IB can export a csv file daily to an ftp server. Opens many interesting doors to get this implemented. Happy to help if you need it
