I see what you mean, that's true.

It's still true if you move the funds into a temporary holding account, I think ? But probably that's easier to ignore if checking the trial balance.

I don't mind trial balance being non-zero for a couple of days, if it means I can have accurate dates and balance assertions with no fudging required.

As mentioned previously, this may leave one with a non-zero trial balance
at date 9/11. Some people may not care.  I don't like the idea of a balance
sheet with missing amounts, especially on days with large transfers.

I use posting dates, which I think is the most direct solution. With
Ledger:

2016/9/10 cinema
  expenses:entertainment  $15
  assets:bank:checking        ; [9/12]

$ ledger -f t.j reg
16-Sep-10 cinema  expenses:entertainment  $15  $15
16-Sep-12 cinema  assets:bank:checking   $-15    0
