I entered it as a split transaction in the stock account's ledger. I
entered in the transaction exactly as laid out in the concept's guide:
http://www.gnucash.org/docs/v1.8/C/gnucash-guide/invest_sell1.html.
The columns were named Buy and Sell, not Total Buy and Total Sell as
in the guide, but otherwise it was the same.

Most of my accounts are in CAD, but all the accounts involved in this
one were in USD.
