This should allow a common syntax to specify an original trading lot when reducing a position after a split." If I understood this correctly, then this functionality would also cover the case of moving a position from one account to another while maintaining trading lot information for performing correct reductions, as requested above? If so, do you have any idea if and when the stock split proposal may be implemented? Cheers, Einar -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Beancount" group.
