[GNC] Trading Currency Loss in Balance Sheet showing up as revenue/income in P&L

[jboer]

I have the same issue. Small business in the UK, but I have clients in the EU
that I'm invoicing in EUR.

My accounts are set up like this:
- Income:Sales:EUR for recording sales in EUR.
- Assets:Current Assets:Accounts Receivable:EUR for recording outstanding
invoices in EUR.
- Imbalances:EUR for currency conversion.
- Imbalances:GBP for currency conversion.
- Assets:Current Assets:Cash:Checking Account is where the money comes in
GBP. This comes in from the Imbalances:GBP account.

I have Trading Accounts:
- Trading:CURRENCY:EUR
- Trading:CURRENCY:GBP

The situation:
- Balance Sheet has a "Trading Losses" field of £1000.
- Trial Balance has an "Unrealised Losses" field of £1000.
- Profit & Loss has a "Trading" table that shows a "Total Trading" field of
£1000.

But:
- Balance Sheet shows "Total Equity" as "Equity - £1000"
- Profit & Loss shows "Net income for period" as "Total Revenue - Total
Expenses + £1000" when it should be "Total Revenue - Total Expenses - £1000"

It looks like this is a bug where the Profit & Loss incorrectly decides that
the total sum of Trading is part of the Revenues, even if it's actually a
Trading Loss.
