Congratulations on making more and more use of GnuCash. From your 
questions and the answers I see on this list, it is clear that you are 
making good progress.

Have you read GnuCash's /Tutorial and Concepts Guide/ 
<https://gnucash.org/viewdoc.phtml?rev=5&lang=C&doc=guide>? Especially 
Chapter 9, *Investments*, which has sections like "Setup Investment 
Portfolio", "Buying Shares", and "Dividends"?

In general, when asking a question like this, it is good to first ask 
yourself, "Self, have I checked what GnuCash's /Tutorial and Concepts 
Guide/ and its /Manual/ have to say about this? And, have I searched for 
this topic on the GnuCash wiki?" Many kind souls have spent a lot of 
time helping in advance by writing things down.
