- All tax presets include capital gains from options.
- There are two new Tax types -
Option openandOption close. RegularBuy&Sellis now renamed toOpen (Buy)andClose (Sell)as they now work on short positions too.
As US taxes require costs of options to be rolled into the exercised stock, there will be a separate tax statement to do that soon.
Update (2.24.4)
- US taxes for options are handled as well, thanks to a new statement -
Forward if Opened
Adding options tracking would definitely put Capitally on a totally different category! I’ve been searching around for good tools and have tried quite a few (Snowball, Sharesight, …). None of them can track options except using custom assets. Definitely will be a great selling point!

Just tried options. Was able to add call buying. How do I add call selling? Don’t see any place for this.
You use the Option transaction for everything related to options.
To sell (or short) you just enter negative quantity.
Update (2.25.4)
- Properly account for splits (strike price on transaction may be with or without the split applied)
- Price options using Black-Scholes-Merton model, using US 3M T-Bills index for risk-free rate, 1y of stock volatility and dividend yield
- Options can be marked as American or European - options on Indexes and Commodities default to EU, all others are US. In the next update, American options will use additional early-execution premium when pricing
- MWR algorithm is more effective in finding results in tricky cashflows - which are very common in options. There should be much less NaNs displayed for rate of return
Update (2.25.7)
- Fix handling of multiple options on the same asset
Shortbadge is displayed on shorted lots- Margin requirement metric displayed under Market Value tab
- Margin requirement plotted on the Owned/Owed chart as a dotted line
- Advanced tracking settings - risk free rate and margin requirements
