How can I add an one US Dollar Security or change the currency on a existing security?

I have created an account in a foreign currency. When I go to add a security on that account it doesn't give me option to select currency. It creates automatically in US dollars.
If I try to change the currency later on, it doesnt allow it as well. it's default.

Any particular account in Q can only have a single currency in it.  That includes your investment accounts, that can only hold securities that are of a single currency.

SO, for your non-USD investment, you need to create a separate investment account and assign the proper Currency to that account.

Have you turned on Multi-Currency support in Q?  EDIT, Preferences, Calendar and Currency.

It did this already. I’ve create an on BRL currency. When I add a security on the account it doesn’t give me currency selection.
If I then try to go on security list, it shows the security I created on USD and doesn’t let me change it.

When you created that BRL account, did you set it's currency to BRL?
