If you spot that one of your holdings is showing the wrong value, it’s often due to an incorrect trade entry. You can update the trade details to ensure your portfolio data is accurate.

Steps to Edit a Trade

  1. Go to Your Portfolio
    • In the top menu, click Portfolio.
    • Scroll down to the Holdings section.

  2. Select the Affected Holding
    • Click the holding with the incorrect value.

  3. Open the Trades Tab
    • Click Trades to view all recorded trades for this holding.

  4. Find the Incorrect Trade
    • Identify the trade with the wrong details (e.g., wrong share price).
    • Click the three-dot icon (⋮) on the far right of the trade.

  5. Edit the Trade
    • Select Edit from the dropdown menu.
    • Update any incorrect fields — trade type, date, quantity, share price, brokerage, or broker name.
    • Cross-check your details with your broker statement, share registry, or other official documentation.

  6. Save the Changes
    • Click Update Trade.
    • Your holding will now display the correct price and updated value.


Why Prices Sometimes Round Up or Down

Some shares on the ASX trade in fractions of a cent (for example, $0.4925).

When you enter a trade in Navexa, the Trades tab records the exact value you entered.

On your Overview or Portfolio page, you may see that price rounded to two or three decimal places (for example, $0.493).

This is only a display characteristic; the full trade price you entered is stored and calculated correctly in the background.

So even if you notice a rounded figure on one screen, rest assured that:

  • Your trade has been recorded accurately

  • Your portfolio performance and calculations are based on the correct trade price

Tip: Double-check all trades for accuracy. Even a small error in quantity, date, or price can affect your overall portfolio performance.

Remember: This is general information, not personal financial advice.
