Hi Adrien, But it does include the gains and losses from the trading account as realized gains and losses and in this case they also appear in the Balance Sheet in this case as Trading Losses. The Imbalance AUD of -0.26 resulted because i tried to create a Realized gains Transaction from the trading account but it would not let me. If I delete that transaction, the Imbalance Aud goes away and all is good.

I personally don't thing the trading gains and losses should appear in the Balance sheet at all but should only appear in the Income Statement for the period as in effect they are actually or should be Income accounts. The trading account type must be basically of type Asset which gets them included in the Assets total and then to get a balance you have to include the trading gains and losses in Equity . I remember there was a bit of discussion about this when the balance sheets were being updated a year or two ago. I think Chris Lam was doing that work . As i didn't use the trading accounts at the time I don't think I butted in on that one.
