Treasury Bill recording 100x off (Q Mac)

JurgenBecker

Autodownloading transactions from Fidelity. Transactions appear correct though upon selling (maturing) the balance of my account records as 1000000 not 10000 as actually purchased. Anyone know how to fix this?

for clarification: after maturing, the historical balance of my account reflected a 1M gain then a 1M loss when the bill matured. When I first purchased it, the accounting was correct

I had this happen all the time for awhile. Usually, it is just a price difference on the download. When you buy let's say 100 bonds @$1000, cost is $100,000. Then when you sell, for some reason Fidelity downloads 100,000 bonds at $1. Look at the Sell and see if that may be the problem. If so just change the shares and price and it should correct. Hope that helps.
