Note: You may find that the balances go into the negative or otherwise being incorrect. This is most likely caused by duplicate transactions or incorrect transactions. To fix this, you will need to clean your transaction history, and you can use the balances as an indicator of where to look. Remember that this will start at the newest transaction and work backward, so if you have a bad balance at a given date, look for transactions after that date.
