I have a share on a German exchange, but quoted in USD. F::Q gets the
price from Yahoo Europe in USD, but Gnucash calls the USDs EURs, so I
have to manually edit the currency of the price to USD every time.

How can I tell Gnucash that the price should in USD, so that "Get
Quotes" does everything automatically?
