The first step to diagnose is to run ofxdump on your file and see if the 
output makes sense and is complete.  If it is, check that your commodity is 
set properly on the gnucash account.

If it isn't, I'll need a sample file, and a description of the expected 
behaviour.  I have no way to test investments account here, and this code was 
writtent directly from the spec, but isn't a complete implementation.  Either 
the abcence of one of the above "WRITEME" is the source of your problem, or I 
misinterpreted the meaning of one of the elements.
