Welcome Frank;
I'm using a self-developed spreadsheet workbook -

That's all I pass on to my Accountant at FY end.

My broker doesn't understand bookkeeping, so I download transaction history to a spreadsheet.

Tax Accountants have a portal to the ATO who already know about your trades.
I assume the ATO are linked to ASX or CHESS.

Not quite right burglar. The ATO Portal lists dividends received but not buy/sell trades.
In fact the ATO Portal shouldn't be relied up to have all your dividends either. Same with interest received from bank accounts. The portal is only as good as the infromation provided by the companies and financial institutions.
In time the ATO will have access to all buy/sell transactions but at the moment that is an audit option for them only. It is not available to tax agents.

I am thinking to start SMSF
With only 69K to kick start it, I am probably locked in to esuperfund
They will want me to be with Commsec.
So I am finding that I don't really control anything!?
Sorry Fenkci, its a little bit off topic

Sorry!!
I did not mean to mislead!
I was just passing on, in good faith, what a tax accountant told me.
Thanks guys for all the information and a quick response. feel like I am gonna love this forum, hope it is not addictive
I have been thinking of Sharesight, not sure any of youes have heard it, easy to use also syncs with accounting softwares so no more data entry.
I am also a bookkeeper helping businesses with their bookkeeping activities, just started with share trading, never had a share trader client before so I dont have bookkeeping experince in that area.

Yes, with a small balance you would be foolish to employ an accountant when Esuperfund will perfectly well suffice. Many people are very happy with them.
You should not view them as some sort of inferior choice.
And what's wrong with Commsec?
You still control what investments you make.
Are you just looking for a reason not to act?
Often it's easier to just keep grizzling about the mismanagement of fund managers of Super rather than actually take the responsibility of doing it yourself.

What did I say now ??
I'm with netwealth. (Cheep, reliable, trustworthy, they have served me well)
You say Esuper, I find they want me to be with Commsec.
Tech/a says change broker. He is, of course, correct.
So now I want to be with IB.
All the while, I like the sound of Paritrade.
I am looking for a way forward,
I do act, (slowly, responsibly)
when it happens I will post.

Hi Fenkci,
I used to printout my broker summary and sent to my Accountant by EOFY. Having the thought that I have the summary will help to reduce my tax fees and end up paying $1520 !!!!
Anyway, I was recommend to this guy who apparently has all the tax knowledge to all financial tradings and subsequently my tax fees was been reduced to a third of what I used to pay!. It has been quite consistent over the year and I highly recommend you guys to try him seem to understand what the Accountants want.
PM me if you are interested.
cheers and good luck all

Hi Burgler,
Esuper don't require you to use Commsec. They have a few broker options, including IB!

nice work!
MYOB is the bomb, get to know it, and works well with the good accounts we have here in OZ (When I say good accounts, do not get use to it, cause there are not to many of them)
1) if you do not know MYOB, get to know it, or get someone to teach you.
2) if you do not want to learn go outsource it to someone who can use it properly, and knows all the little hidden functions too.
