It's not balancing because the realized gains and losses seem to be still
reported as "Unrealized" - I am trying to understand this myself.
Here is a simpler example ledger file (note the sale transaction has been
commented out):
17/05/2010 XYZ Purchase
Assets:XYZ 100 XYZ {$10}
Assets:Bank $-1000
P 19/09/2019 XYZ $11
comment
20/09/2019 XYZ Sale
Assets:XYZ -100 XYZ {$10} @ $11
Assets:Bank $1100
Income:Realised Gains
end comment
Report based on above:
$ ledger -f test.dat bal -V --unrealized
$100 Assets
$-1000 Bank
$1100 XYZ
$-100 Equity:Unrealized Gains
--------------------
0
That looks OK.
Now after uncommenting the sale transaction:
$ ledger -f test.dat bal -V --unrealized
$100 Assets:Bank
$-100 Equity:Unrealized Gains
$-100 Income:Realised Gains
--------------------
$-100
Why is the unrealized gain still there?
Tim.
