What I do is assign a unique identifier to each "position", so that by
querying later I can see every transaction related to that position, including
those short-term sales and repurchases that do nothing more than effect the
cost basis.

Btw, I'm working on a new utility called "trade-journal" that is a simplified
Ledger focused just on keeping a trading journal, which converts its input
files into properly annotated Ledger files, thus saving you from most of the
calculation and repetition.
