If you open the transaction journal view or split there should be another
account. Selling 10 shares of XYZ Corp which is kept in the Stocks
(asset) account would look something like this

                         shares price debit credit
XYZ Corp  Stocks          -10   1.501        15.01
          Gross Revenue               15.01

Depending on what rules apply then you have to figure out how Gross Revenue
divides up into cost (basis) and short term and long term capital gains.
