R C, Have you read the help manual chapter on Investments? Your screenshots do not show everything, but from what is visible I can offer a couple of comments.
I am not sure what the account named Market Index is supposed to represent. If it is intended to represent a real mutual fund it is remarkable that it has the value shown. If it is an attempt to show the market value of the mutual fund, that is not needed. You should use the Price Database to store prices which you can download from the Internet. Then there are some investment reports which can show the value on given dates. Second, if your dividends and earnings entry represents a re-investment in additional shares, there should not be an offsetting sale of shares, but instead consist of a dividend income amount to offset the cost of the shares purchased.
