Great stuff Luciano, thank you for sharing, I'll definitely have a good look at it when I find a bit of time.
Red: Related to investments, I'm in the process of cleaning up and building common data structures specifically for trading accounts, in a new repo called "beanbuff". Find related codes here: https://github.com/beancount/beanbuff/tree/master/beanbuff At the moment it's just the importers I'm sharing, but I'm working on making the conversion to an intermediate trade log consistent across them and to convert that trade log to Beancount. I'm finding that having a flat table trade log is more useful for analysis and am still on the fence about representing thousands of 1000's of transactions for temporary positions in Beancount inputs. I tend to separate the long term stuff (e.g., a long position on an ETF held for years, with associated covered calls) from active trading (e.g., a strangle on BIDU held for 20 days, a /ZCN21-/ZCZ21 calendar spread, etc.), those things don't matter much in the long run and I think it might make more sense to summarize the impact of trading to just a single transaction per week and to keep all the detail in separate files analyzed by custom scripts doing various breakdowns on P/L.
