This calculates portfolio profits or losses over the last year. It
also imposes the database restriction that only stocks owned by
'joe' are to be included.
beancounter status --restriction "type='401k'"
This shows a portfolio status report with the restriction that only
stocks from the '401k' account are to be included.
beancounter risk
This runs a Value-at-Risk (VaR) report with parametric VaR (the standard
Delta method), non-parametric VaR (the return quintile) as well as
marginal VaR based on returns of the (default time frame of the) last six
months. Other time periods can be specified via the --date and
--prevdate option arguments.
