Does anything prevent me from doing this? 2013-02-03 * Bought some shares Assets:ETrade:Cash -2000 USD Assets:ETrade:ITOT 200 ITOT {100 USD / 2012-05-02} Do you think it might be more robust to automatically attach the transaction date to the lots of all positions with a cost that don't reduce an existing position? Now I'm not convinced I even need lots declarations anymore, other than for RESOLVING ambiguous cases (not DECLARING them). -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ledger" group.
