## Commands

### Import All Trades

```bash
python3 -c "
import ccxt
import json
import os
from datetime import datetime

exchanges_config = json.load(open(os.path.expanduser('~/.kit/exchanges.json')))
all_trades = []

for name, cfg in exchanges_config.items():
    try:
        exchange = getattr(ccxt, name)(cfg)
        # Fetch all trades (may need pagination)
        trades = exchange.fetch_my_trades('BTC/USDT', limit=100)
        for t in trades:
            all_trades.append({
                'exchange': name,
                'symbol': t['symbol'],
                'side': t['side'],

                'timestamp': t['timestamp'],
                'date': datetime.fromtimestamp(t['timestamp']/1000).isoformat()
            })
        print(f'✅ {name}: {len(trades)} trades imported')
    except Exception as e:
        print(f'⚠️ {name}: {e}')

print(f'\\n📊 Total: {len(all_trades)} trades')
# Save: json.dump(all_trades, open('trades_2026.json', 'w'), indent=2)
"
```

### Calculate Capital Gains (FIFO)

```bash
python3 -c "
from collections import defaultdict
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

# Example trades

    {'side': 'sell', 'amount': 0.8, 'price': 50000, 'date': '2026-02-01', 'asset': 'BTC'},
]

# FIFO calculation
holdings = defaultdict(list)  # asset -> [(amount, price, date)]
gains = []

for trade in sorted(trades, key=lambda x: x['date']):

            'date': datetime.fromisoformat(trade['date'])
        })
    
    elif trade['side'] == 'sell':
        sell_amount = trade['amount']
        sell_price = trade['price']
        sell_date = datetime.fromisoformat(trade['date'])

            # Calculate gain
            proceeds = used * sell_price
            cost_basis = used * lot['price']
            gain = proceeds - cost_basis
            
            # Check holding period (Germany: 1 year = tax free for crypto)
            holding_days = (sell_date - lot['date']).days
            tax_free = holding_days >= 365
            
            gains.append({
                'asset': asset,
                'amount': used,

                'holding_days': holding_days,
                'tax_free': tax_free
            })
            
            # Update lot
            lot['amount'] -= used
            sell_amount -= used
            
            if lot['amount'] <= 0:
                holdings[asset].pop(0)

### Tax-Loss Harvesting Opportunities

```bash
python3 -c "
import ccxt

# Current holdings with cost basis
holdings = [
    {'asset': 'BTC', 'amount': 0.5, 'cost_basis': 50000, 'buy_date': '2025-08-01'},

    {'asset': 'SOL', 'amount': 20, 'cost_basis': 150, 'buy_date': '2025-10-01'},
]

exchange = ccxt.binance()

print('🧾 TAX-LOSS HARVESTING OPPORTUNITIES')
print('=' * 60)

total_unrealized_loss = 0

for h in holdings:
    try:
        ticker = exchange.fetch_ticker(f\"{h['asset']}/USDT\")
        current_price = ticker['last']
        current_value = h['amount'] * current_price
        cost = h['amount'] * h['cost_basis']
        unrealized = current_value - cost
        
        if unrealized < 0:
            total_unrealized_loss += abs(unrealized)
            print(f\"🔴 {h['asset']}: Unrealized Loss €{unrealized:,.2f}\")
            print(f\"   Sell now to realize loss for tax offset\")
            print(f\"   Can rebuy after 30 days (wash sale rule)\")
            print()
    except:

print(f'Total harvestable losses: €{total_unrealized_loss:,.2f}')
print(f'Potential tax savings (42%): €{total_unrealized_loss * 0.42:,.2f}')
"
```

### Generate Annual Tax Report

```bash
python3 -c "
