Not sure which report you want to modify, but there is e.g. a method called
PivotTable::coloredAmount(). It is responsible to render the color for HTML
reports. The callee of this method provides the value.

KReportChartView::drawPivotChart receives all values in the parameter 'grid'.
You may want to look into the construction of the grid to find the spot where
the values of the transfers are inserted.

The spot you found is not negating the value of each expense, but simply
negates the value contained in the grid if the underlying account for the cell
is an expense account. So I wonder if that would be the spot to achieve what
you are trying.

Hope that helps. The reporting section is not my area of expertise.
