MarketPrice.hs

{-|

A 'MarketPrice' represents a historical exchange rate between two
commodities. (Ledger calls them historical prices.) For example, prices
published by a stock exchange or the foreign exchange market.  Some
commands (balance, currently) can use this information to show the market
value of things at a given date.
