Using Mac Deluxe 2018 ver. 5.6.5 (Build 56.22537.100)
When viewing an investment account the top right corner lists "market value" and "day gain/loss". Under market value is the actual gain/loss and not the real market value.
I'm entering data myself and not relying on a download with any institution.

I would suspect a placeholder for the cash balance is causing your issue. From your screenshot, is the cash balance really $-6K?
Make a backup, and look at the beginning of your register for a light gray transaction adjusting your cash balance. Depending on your situation, you might have to delete it.0 -
John is correct. The market value is the sum of any cash and market value. Since you have a negative cash amount, the total Market Value is correct. You need to transfer some cash into your account from another source to offset that cash negative cash value. If you don't have a source account, you could just enter a Payment/Deposit transaction with a Payee of "Adjustment to account" and any category you choose.John in NC said:I would suspect a placeholder for the cash balance is causing your issue.

Thank you, the issue was that I hadn't shown a deposit prior to purchasing shares.0
