Add the token to another token
A token is one coin across platforms. Its platforms share one price, symbol and name.
- Open Tokens in the sidebar.
- In the row of the token, open the menu in the Actions column and select Add to a token.
- In Token, pick the token.
- Select Assign.
Follow another token's price
A follower takes the price of its leader. It keeps its own balances and its own cost basis.
- On the Tokens page, expand the token.
- Open the menu of the contract and select Follow another token.
- In Leader token, select the token to follow.
- Select Follow.
The current price changes at once. Past values change on the next recalculation. A token that follows another cannot be a leader. To stop, select Unfollow … in the same menu.
Add a price by hand
A price you add fills the movements of that token in the same hour (UTC). Add one price for each moment that needs one.
Open the price window from one of these places:
- In Missing price data, select Add price on a movement. The moment is filled in.
- In Transactions, select one movement and select Set value in the selection bar. The moment is filled in.
- On the page of the token, select Add price, or Manage > Add a price manually.
- Check Moment. It is in UTC and cannot be in the future.
- In Price (USD), type the price of one token.
- Select Recover EUR/GBP to fill the rates of that day. If the rates cannot be found, type them in EUR per USD (that day) and GBP per USD (that day).
- Select Register price.
Ignore a token
Ignore a token that has no value for you, such as a spam airdrop.
- On the Tokens page, Ignore token in the row menu ignores every contract of the token.
- Ignore contract in the menu of a contract ignores only that contract.
An ignored token leaves the Tokens list, and Conta Finance stops looking for its price. Its history, balances, cost basis and reconciliation do not change. To see it again, tick Show ignored and select Unignore token.
