Hi,
Here is an example. Sorry that it's a bit long, but it needs to be, so that
<Adjustment> shows up:
2015-01-01 Broker
Assets:Broker 2000 USD
Assets:Bank -1800 EUR ; I don't care if exchange rates are correct
2015-01-02 Apple
Assets:Stocks:AAPL 1 AAPL
Assets:Broker -500 USD
2015-01-02 Microsoft
Assets:Stocks:MSFT 1 MSFT
Assets:Broker -500 USD
P 2015-01-10 AAPL 510 USD
P 2015-01-10 MSFT 520 USD
P 2015-02-15 USD 1 EUR
P 2015-02-15 AAPL 520 USD
P 2015-02-15 MSFT 530 USD
2015-02-20 Microsoft
Assets:Stocks:MSFT 1 MSFT
Assets:Broker -535 USD
2015-02-20 Apple
Assets:Stocks:AAPL 1 AAPL
Assets:Broker -525 USD
Then I do my report like this:
ledger -f example.ledger -M reg ^Assets -X EUR
And here is the result:
15-Jan-01 - 15-Jan-31 Assets:Bank -1800 EUR
-1800 EUR
Assets:Broker 900 EUR
-900 EUR
Assets:Stocks:AAPL 459 EUR
-441 EUR
Assets:Stocks:MSFT 468 EUR
27 EUR
15-Feb-01 - 15-Feb-28 <Adjustment> 228 EUR
255 EUR
Assets:Broker -1055 EUR
-800 EUR
Assets:Stocks:AAPL 520 EUR
-280 EUR
Assets:Stocks:MSFT 535 EUR
255 EUR
Then my script accumulates these "changes" to generate "current value".
When I do this over a lot of months, the <Adjustment> keeps getting bigger
and bigger.
And it's only one <Adjustment> section for all of the portfolio
The perfect thing would be if Ledger reported no <Adjustment> and just
included the "current value" of the respective asset.
One other solution would be if I run my report once per stock and do the
calculations myself, but that will require more hacking on my side (which
I'll probably do at some point)
