inflows or outflows.
- `sym:REGEX` - match postings or transactions including any amounts
whose commodity symbol is fully matched by REGEX. (For a partial
match, use `.*REGEX.*`). Note, to match the dollar sign (`$`) you
need to prepend `\` so it's not interpreted as the regular
expression metacharacter. And when running hledger from the
command-line, you may need one more level of quoting to hide it from
the shell, eg: `hledger print sym:\\$` or `hledger print sym:'\$'`.

To strictly limit reports to a single commodity, it may work better
to exclude the others, eg: `hledger bal not:sym:'(EUR|¥|£)'.
