Hello, I am very new to Beancount as I want to keep track of my trading
activities and generate reports with FIFO settings. I love the tool so far
and the community around it.
1)
To get started, I want to better understand how Lots are handled and
therefore want to report active Lots. In the docs (how inventories work >
cost basis) there is a very good example of what I am looking for
```units ccy cost cost-ccy lot-date label
25 HOOL {23.00 USD, 2015-04-01, "first-lot"} 35 HOOL {27.00 USD,
2015-05-01, None}```
I tried `bean-report books.beancount holdings` but only get a total of the
account, not the active Lots within. what else could I try?
2)
As a bonus, I would like to ask how it could be possible to track my trades
so that I can analyse the outcome. I am thinking of categories like
timeframe or setup. The query for example could be: show me the outcome of
all trades based on the 1H chart (this way I could see where my profits
come from, interesting to know). problem I see is that I would have to book
it in order to have it available to query, but I would make an entry for
PnL instead, right?
looking forward to what you have in mind about it.
thanks
