I think OP can try the Balance Sheet (eguile) report. That shows assets, 
equity, liabilities as well as temporary accounts income and expense. It’s 
formatted pretty nice too if you enable the report option called account depth 
to ALL. 
Only problem with this is if you have market linked investments like stocks and 
mutual funds, it will only show you current value. No option to change it to 
FIFO or average cost basis. 

But. I don’t think this is an issue for OPs needs. 

Cheers.

No, it doesn?t include income, expense, or trading accounts. An Income 
Statement/Profit & Loss report show income and expense. AFAIK no report shows 
trading accounts.
