Quicken seems to think that all IRAs are Investing accounts. Mine is a Certificate of Deposit.

How do I set this account up in Quicken

    You set up an IRA Account and buy the CD as a security in the IRA.  Set the CD up as a security for $1 per share.  So a 10,000 CD would be 10,000 shares at $1.  The CD is in the IRA not the other way around.

    OR, set the CD up (in an investment IRA) as if it's a BOND, then you can input both interest rate and maturity date.
