Try using the Banking Transactions Report (Reports > Banking > Transaction).

Customise it to show the account with the transactions you want to delete and make sure the date range includes those transactions.  Use Ctrl-Click or Shift-Click to select the transactions you want to delete, then in the top left hand corner of the report there's a drop down Edit control from where you can delete them:

Jeff, if by your reply you mean that my suggestion won't work because you are talking about investment, not bank accounts, then I must apologise for not being specific in my post above.

Despite the name, the banking transaction report can see all accounts, including investment accounts.  In the report you can select transactions from one or more accounts and delete them with the Edit menu shown in my post above.  I think that report will let you achieve what you are trying to do, unless I have misunderstood your original question.
