Re: Portfolio Returns in Fava (based on beangrow)

I am using Beancount 2.3.1, and am getting the message that the PIVOT BY clause is not supported yet. Is this something only available in v3+? It does still appear to by in the documentation: https://beancount.github.io/docs/beancount_query_language.html#pivot-by The query I am trying to run,

Re: Calculating Portfolio Returns

Thanks, this looks promising and I'll try it out soon. In the document there is a discussion of comparing your returns to another portfolio. I would suggest using some number of these lazy portfolios for default selections, where of course someo
