Does Pocket Performance Include Dividends and Corporate Actions?

Not in the profit figure on the Pockets tab. Since the latest portfolio update, the Pockets tab in your Portfolio shows the value of your Pockets and their unrealised profit or loss, which track the price and exchange-rate movement of the assets you still hold. Dividends paid by US stocks in your Pocket are credited to your account as cash rather than added to that figure, and they are counted with your other dividends under Dividend in Realized P&L on the Overview tab. Because a Pocket gives you full ownership of the underlying assets, those dividends belong to you just as they would if you held the stocks outside a Pocket. A corporate action that changes a stock's price or number of units shows up through the value of that holding. To see how a Pocket has really done, look at its unrealised profit or loss together with the dividends you have received.


  • What the Pockets tab shows: Pockets Value, the current value of the assets in your Pockets, and Unrealized P&L, the gain or loss on them, split into Asset, Forex and USDT Gain/Loss. Each Pocket also has its own row with its value and percentage.
  • Where dividends go: dividends from US stocks are credited to your account as cash and counted under Dividend in Realized P&L on the Overview tab.
  • Crypto components: crypto assets don't pay dividends, so their result comes purely from price movement.
  • Why it matters when comparing: two Pockets with similar price movement show similar unrealised profit or loss even if one of them paid dividends; that income appears in Realized P&L instead.

Q: Where can I see how my Pocket is doing?
Open your Portfolio page and go to the Pockets tab under Assets. It shows your Pockets Value and Unrealized P&L, and each Pocket you hold has its own row with its value and percentage. Dividends from US stocks in your Pockets are counted separately, under Dividend in Realized P&L on the Overview tab.

Q: Why doesn't my Pocket's profit include the dividends I received?
Because the Pockets tab shows unrealised profit or loss, which compares the current value of the assets you still hold with what you paid for them. A dividend is paid to your account as cash, so it doesn't change that value. It is still part of your result: it is counted as realised income under Dividend in Realized P&L on the Overview tab.

Q: Do Crypto Pockets work the same way?
Yes. Every Pocket appears on the Pockets tab with its value and unrealised profit or loss. Crypto assets don't pay dividends, so a Crypto Pocket's result comes from price movement alone. If a Pocket holds USDT, that part counts as cash and is shown as USDT Held in Pockets, with its own USDT Gain/Loss.

Q: Why does full ownership matter for dividends?
Because a Pocket gives you full ownership of the underlying assets rather than pooled or synthetic exposure, any dividend paid by a stock you hold through a Pocket belongs to you directly, the same as holding that stock outside a Pocket. It is credited to your account and counted with your other dividends in Realized P&L.
