My cost for coins are much higher than buying. there are hardware costs, electrical costs,

and for some miners, rent.

It would appear that your csv header for a miner at least needs to change from

quote

Date, Received Quantity, Received Currency, Sent Quantity, Sent Currency, Fee Amount, Fee Currency, Tag

end quote

to

Date, Received Quantity, Received Currency, Coin Cost, Coin Cost Currency, Sent Quantity, Sent Currency, Fee Amount, Fee Currency, Tag

Monitoring price by time and date would seem to be useless for my situation.

I'd like ideas on your end
