<<Since nearly all of my realized income, if any, comes from capital gains, there is no quarterly income to compare to. >>

Mine too. I compare to last year's total payment and divide by 4 and add the 10% ( my accountant has it all set up for me actually I just write the check ) . If I'm ahead of last year I pay and accept the loan from the Government. If not I decide whether or not to pay based on unrealized gains or loses. But I guess every situation is different.
