After trying several portfolio trackers, I still couldn't find one that benchmarked performance properly
I've been investing for a few years across ETFs, stocks, and some crypto, and one thing I kept struggling with was tracking performance properly across different currencies.
Most portfolio trackers I tried were either very US-focused, didn't handle EUR/USD well, or relied heavily on broker syncing, which I personally prefer to avoid.
While trying to solve it for myself, a few things became obvious:
* A lot of return calculations don't really reflect deposit timing, which makes portfolio performance hard to interpret
* Benchmarking only makes sense if you compare over the exact same period you were invested
* Currency movements often explain more of the result than many people realize, especially with US-heavy portfolios
I ended up building a small tracker for myself (TrackinV) mainly to solve the multi-currency side of it - free to use if anyone is curious.
