I have a "test" laptop with GC 2.6.17 running the latest Linux Mint. I
opened GC and tried using Trading Accounts, did check and repair, noted
the totals of assets, liabilities, income and expense before and after.
There was no difference. I then ran a Income and Expense report for
year 2016 (which is the same as my production GC and compared the two.
Again there was no difference in totals between the two GC files.
So, exactly what does Trading Accounts actually do? I noticed that when
viewing a stock transaction using auto-split view, there are added lines
showing trading: currencies and trading: exchange and stock symbol, that
does not appear without trading accounts.
Thanks,
Les

It would be more fun to make a test copy of an existing file! 😁

Thanks, Adrien, David & Christoph for your replies. I think
opening a new GC file and testing Trading Accounts is a good idea.

And run “Actions -> Check & Repair -> Check & Repair All” to
add the needed splits to existing transactions.

I think that if you want to stop using trading account s
it is difficult to
turn them off.
I would set up a test file to try them on until you decide
whether you like
them.

Yes, you can add trading accounts (or any other
accounts) as needed to your
current file.

I have been using GC for several years, and
although I trade stocks, I
have never used the "Trading Accounts" option.
Can I just start using
it,
or would I need to start a new GC file?
Thanks,
