Ledger
Ledger represents a book of financial transactions in an individual account or a group of accounts.
The app maintains a separate ledger per account with exception of migrated accounts. Transactions in accounts transferred between different branches of Interactive Brokers are automatically grouped together into a single ledger.
View trades chronologically
Run the following command to view chronological trade data as series of positions:
portfelj ledger
View closing trades
List closing trades within the given year, with matching opening trades in the same or preceding year(s) based on FIFO order.
For example, let's list all closing trades in 2024:
portfelj ledger --tax-year 2024
TIP
The data output of this mode is used for generation of tax returns for eDavki.
Search and filter output
It's possible to filter ledger output using either one or multiple filters:
By account ID
For example only show trades in the account ID
U7000001
:shportfelj ledger --account-id U7000001
Replace
U7000001
with the actual account IDBy symbol
For example only show positions in
APPL
:shportfelj ledger --symbol AAPL
Convert to euro
By default, positions in ledger are displayed in the currency of trade.
Run ledger with --euro
flag to automatically convert all prices to Euro:
portfelj ledger --tax-year 2024 --euro
Merge multiple accounts
By default, each account is treated separately and the output of ledger looks as series of accounts and positions.
One exception to that is when there is a link between accounts. For instance when the same account is moved between different branches of Interactive Brokers.
Run ledger with --merge
flag, if you'd like to have a combined view of all accounts as a single ledger. For example:
portfelj ledger --tax-year 2024 --merge
TIP
If you only have one account with IB then you should never need to provide this flag explicitly.
