You may have thought that an odd comment. When Money sees that your
file (or settings -- not sure which) is from Canada, it averages the
basis in accordance with its interpretation of Canadian tax law.

The situation for Canada is that Money 2006 is the latest sold in
Canada. Money Plus(2008) should be able to work with a file from
Canada, but you would need a US address or visit to buy it. I don't
really understand why its this way.

Also, I am still using Money 2000. (I had so many issues when upgrading in
the past I am afraid to leave a version that is working reasonably well).
If you have any other suggestions please let me know. Thanks.

Default Cant stop Money averaging cost of same stock in different accounts

I want to track my gains (or losses) separately in different investment
accounts but when I purchase a stock already owned in a different account it
averages the costs and even pulls in gains achieved on stock that was sold in
another account.
I have tried checking the "Actual Cost" box. No change.
