A graph of this already exists, though it is not obvious to find and setup.

Go to Reports -> Assets & Liabilities -> Assert Barchart.
Then go into Options, and set the Price Source to be 'nearest in time'.

Finally, adjust the Step Size, and date range, and you might like to
adjust the 'Show Accounts until level' setting in the Accounts tab
inside Options. Probably also want to adjust the Plot Width within
'Display' too.

Finally, press 'Apply' (or 'OK'), and you should get something useful.

Note that you're not the first person to fail to find this graph. :-(

Hope this helps - Conor O'Neill
