If I recall correctly, the parent account of the account that holds the stock sets the currency. Thus if you have a brokerage handling stock in multiple currencies for you, you have to create placeholder sub-accounts under the main brokerage account just to segregate the stocks for each currency like so:
Brokerage |_Brokerage:Brokerage-USD |_Brokerage:Brokerage-USD:StockABC |_Brokerage:Brokerage-USD:StockVOO |_Brokerage:Brokerage-CAD |_Brokerage:Brokerage-CAD:StockDEF |_Brokerage:Brokerage-CAD:StockXYZ Regards, Adrien > On Mar 9, 2020 w11d69, at 6:19 PM, Nelson <fkjasdhf...@mailinator.com> wrote: > > 3.8 on Windows. > > So, I have a VOO stock type account.
