I don't see how what you've described above is contradictory to what
I've said, or how Moneydance works.

Asset accounts normally have positive balances, Liabilities normally
have negative.

When your asset increases in value, it does so at the expense of a
liability account.  When the asset goes up $1000, the liability goes
down, by -$1000.  This is exactly what I described in my previous
message, but you seem to be trying to say that it's wrong.  Can you
point out the flaw?
