You're right. By a strange coincidence I had a typo in another entry
on the same day.

No, it doesn't.  Price info (@ $...) is not used for precision.

I don't get 3 digits with your example.  If you really get 3 digits,
it's because of another reason.  Maybe you specified 3 digits in
another transaction.

Setting precision for $

2022-05-22 Thread David Glasser
I sold some stock at a price valued in half-cents. I modeled this in ledger
like

2022-05-13 Buyer
  Bank  $100.50
  Shares  -100 STOCK @ $1.005

This means that Ledger now thinks that it should display every $ value with
three digits of precision, which I don't like. How can I get $ back to just
two digits?  I see you can specify precision with C when you define a
commodity in terms of another one but I haven't done that for $...
