--- Comment #6 from Christian <gentoo at moin.fi> ---
The solution suggested by mahueb55 is a good one. It can be implemented in two
steps:
1. Add the possibility to configure a category for "gain/loss" - whether
globally, per investment account, or per security can be discussed.
2. Decide how to calculate the profit/loss automatically and implement that.
(This could be optional or replace a temporary solution of entering this value
manually.)

There is the possibility of entering inconsistent values if they are entered
manually and (2) is not implemented. But to me this doesn't pose a problem as
the current method (which would be equivalent to having a 0 profit/loss always)
seems to be inconsistent in the same way.

Another reason why it would be good to have the realized profit/loss in a
category is that some taxes are calculated on it (e.g., "capital gains tax").
