BUG: Buy/Sell preview is mixing tax years

This year, 2023, I realized some large capital gains. I am attempting to use the Buy/Sell Preview feature to provide information about possible sales next year in 2024.

But the Buy/Sell Preview is including this year's gain with next year's. It should know not to do that. The current year's gain should not appear along with the proposed year's gain if the years are different.

I've blurred the amounts for privacy, but trust me, they are being added. I have reported a problem with the amounts visible in the report.

    I had never looked at this tool before. For it to be useful you better be using FIFO since there is no other choice.
