How do I create such a plot ?

Reports / Net worth & Balances, Account Balances. Click the gear, Accounts tab, and Clear All then checkmark next to 1,2,3,4. Interval Month might be nice.

Hi @Aloke,

You can create such a report as follows:

1)* Go to: "Reports" > "Net Worth and Balances" > "Account Balances";
2) When the report appears in the pop-up window - Click on the Gear icon in the upper right;
3) In the new "Customize Account Balances" window > click on the "Accounts" tab;
4) Hit the "Clear All" button > then select only the bank accounts that you want to be included in the report and click "OK";
5) When the report screen again appears > Click on the "Date Range" drop down and make that whatever period you want to view;
6) Next, Click on the "Date Interval" drop down and make that whatever time frame  you want to view (however there is not a daily balance - the smallest time frame is a one week interval).

* - BTW, this report will show both a "graph" and a "report" - if you just want the graph, change step 1) above to the following:
1) Go to: "Reports" > "Graphs" > "Account Balances";

That should do it!

Let me know if you have any followups.
