Thanks Ken, I was able to add those two in a 'Precious Metals' namespace, that indeed works.

But now how to integrate that with my existing XAU/XAG denominated accounts?

I'm guessing I'll have to make new ones with those symbols for commodity, then delete the old accounts and let GnuCash move the transactions, but I can only imagine that could be a mess with the trading splits.

Regards,
Adrien

Yahoo seems to use "GC=F" as the symbol for Gold. I am able to get the price of gold as shown in the following output from gnc-fq-dump

In a similar fashion, silver is apparently "SI=F".
