I had to learn Python to pay my taxes

Going through this right now, albeit with Robinhood. I have to report my earning in Canada and the US, but I have a lot of transactions.

The IRS is okay with the condensed transactions; but the CRA want everything line-by-line. So now I have to scrape my transactions via the "unofficial" Robinhood API because they conveniently don't allow you to export anything.

After the time you invest in massaging the data the CRA wants, I’m curious if you would’ve come out ahead with a mature broker (at ~$5/trade).

Any info on this "unofficial" API?
