In a recnt discussion with (http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=user_nodes&user=378901) around capital gains and realized and unrealized gains, I had occasion to acquaint myself with trading accounts. The current version of Ch12 only deals with the manual calculation of multiple currencies and while it mentions trading accounts it is mainly by reference to peter Selinger's tutorials (https://www.mathstat.dal.ca/~selinger/accounting/tutorial.html and https://www.mscs.dal.ca/~selinger/accounting/gnucash.html). The user became confused and i also ended up confused largely because peter Selinger's articles do not discuss the trading account implementation in GnuCash as it is now.
I am proposing expanding Ch12 as per the outline in https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797701 to include trading accounts.
