[GNC] Tutorial for moving stock between accounts?

[David Cousens]

Jon,

It is not very clear what situation you are dealing with. One would not
usually move stock from one account to another as such. Their purchase or
sale would normally be recorded in an Asset:Invetment account of type Stock.
What you are recording is the exchange of money to or from your bank account
(another asset account) when you sell or buy the stock. If you are buying
and selling on overseas exchanges then you will have currency exchange
considerations as well.

The following section of the Tutorial and Concepts guide will be a good
starting point
https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/C/gnucash-guide/invest-setup1.html

The sections in the guide following the one referenced above deal with
buying and selling stock.

You  may also want to check out the introductory sections relating to double
entry accounting

if the above is not clear.
