Realized / unrealized / gains / losses are tax stuff.

Inn general terms gnc doesn't to tax stuff.

So ... don't go there as you will become prey to one countries weird tax 
laws versus another and then find yourself chasing local tax laws (North 
American differences get very weird).

Write the report "as found" and leave the implications to others is my 
advice, it has served well for very broad reports like the eguile 
balance sheet [1]

In particular don't double guess the trading accounts, they've proven 
resilient so far, you can pull time from and time to out of it but 
showing them this way or that to get them to fit into a tax report 
probably won't work because they were written by someone that wasn't 
working to a nation's dumb tax regime.

[1] if the trial balance reports don't work try the BS, folks, they're 
less flaky
