Thanks for that Derek. I have a few questions remaining though: - what happens if a transaction is added or updated after doing close book. Will the zeroing transactions be updated too? - what happens when there are multiple currencies? I think it's better to know what close-book is supposed to be doing rather than guess from running tests.
