I generally put the shunt in between the battery and the ground. That way you can see current going both ways during charge and discharge. This is important for solar sites. If you are just wanting to monitor load, put it between the battery and the load distribution panel. Or perhaps you want to monitor just charger current. That will equal load current once the battery is fully charged.
Multiple ways to do this.
