Market Orders Auditing Tool

So for a while now I have been playing around with the markets, buying and selling items, and I thought how useful it would be to have some kind of Auditing tool as an added function for the Orders page in our wallet menus.

Some may say there is the export button, but it only exports the orders you have at the moment you export the data and it is not presented in a very user-friendly way as a string of text in a Notepad file. My thoughts are to be able to automatically create a set of records for the last month which detail each item bought/sold by Market Orders the quantity, the price and the total profit with a profit total nicely added up at the end. Something like this: -

Buy Orders

Item Quantity Price Total
1 2 5,000 10,000
2 1 10,000 10,000
3 5 15,000 75,000

Sub-Total 95,000

Sell Orders

Item Quantity Price Total
1 1 7,500 7,500
2 1 13,000 13,000
3 3 20,000 60,000

Sub-Total 80,500

Profit -14,500

Brokers Fees and Sales Tax can be added in as well. People who buy from market and re-sell in another location would have to have a feature added so that they can input their starting investment but this would be the basic outline of how it would work. There could also be another tool that logs a summary of the data per month. This way a market trader can keep track of exactly how much s/he is making in an easy to use, easy to read format.

Any thoughts?

Edit - There was supposed to be big spaces between the numbers :(
