Title: [ANN] cryptocurrency capital gains calculator for ledger
Post by: redfish64 on January 13, 2016, 07:48:57 AM
This is a little tool for helping with capital gain calculation for crypto currencies. It uses ledger-cli.org style account books and spits out a csv file like the following:

The "Refs" column pointa to the file number, line number(s) of the individual ledger posting used, so it's easy to track what this program does. Each line shows the "S", sale, and "B", buy of the coin, and intra-day entries are combined. For example, on line 1, bittrex.dat:43 means the bittrex.dat ledger file, line 43, and an example ledger entry might be:

2015-10-22 12:45:01 * Trade
   Assets:bittrex           XXX BTC
   Assets:bittrex           -XXX FOO
