Canada's own help page tells you to set the method by hand — "Be sure to also select Adjusted Cost Base (ACB) as your Report Calculation Method." — even though the methods page says the country selection governs; Germany is absent from the country-specific list entirely, so a German filer lands on the FIFO default, and https://coinledger.io/de sells "Built For Germany Tax Rules" while producing no German statutory form and using Australian phrasing ("We know that lodging your taxes can be stressful.").

Once you've made the allocation, you cannot go back to fix any issues.' Secondary, worth knowing before filing: the default lot-matching method is HIFO, not FIFO — 'Note: CoinTracker defaults all wallets to HIFO, as it tends to lower the tax bill.' — a Specific-ID subset the same page says the product cannot perform at unit level, on a page that also states Specific ID may no longer be applied retroactively for 2025-onward US returns.

Score dimensions
weights sum to 86
The published score is five dimensions, each weighted for the category. "Published criteria" is the criteria block above; the other four are the engine's own terms — availability, friction, trust record, measured data. Each bar is one side's points out of that dimension's maximum; the weight beside the name is its points of the 86-point weighted total. The published criteria above can fill 24 of the block’s 30. A weight marked “constant here” belongs to a dimension every ranked product in the category holds at the same value: it still counts in the total, and it orders nothing here.
