Hello Geoff,
Thank you again!
After exhaustive and thorough searches within the GnuCash Reports, I had
already reached this conclusion. Since I am not perfect and I am
persistent, I thought that something might have escaped me and I was hoping
that someone might have seen something that I did not see and I decided to
ask here as a last attempt to find a ready-made solution.
Now, to have this facility comfortably within GnuCash, we need to create a
graphical report that has the ability to show the variations between
periods. It is hard to believe that until today, no one has needed this
basic facility, only me.
I am skilled in computer environments and would like to study how to do it
and try to do it, but, lately I have lacked time even to protect my
investments. For example, recently, Trump gave us a great opportunity to
make profits by surfing the volatility that he produced. Whoever listened
to him saying "Buy" won!!! Whoever did not listen, lost.
