What is Ghostfolio?

Ghostfolio tracks investments held on several platforms in one portfolio. You enter or import transactions for stocks, ETFs and cryptocurrencies, and it calculates returns including dividends for periods from today to all time, charts the portfolio's composition and flags potential risks. It suits buy-and-hold investors who would otherwise keep a spreadsheet. The app is a progressive web app with a mobile-first design, built with Angular and NestJS on PostgreSQL and Redis. You can use it in 12 interface languages.

Good fit if

  • You hold investments with several brokers and want one view of performance without sharing data with a fintech company.
  • You follow a long-term buy-and-hold strategy and care more about allocation than trading.

Look elsewhere if

  • You want a monthly budget for everyday spending: Actual Budget.
  • You need to track all income and expenses with reports: Firefly III.

Before you adopt it

Ghostfolio is AGPL-3.0 with no paid parts in the repository; the company sells Ghostfolio Premium, a hosted service whose revenue funds data providers and development. Self-hosting uses official Docker images with PostgreSQL and Redis. One developer writes almost all commits, so the project depends on a single maintainer.
