Max,

In the guide you've referenced under "Example Stock Account" there's a description of individual fields in the dialog box.

You need to follow the instructions in item 6 "Create the New Security", and create a security record for your stock, and then in the New Account dialog you'll need to click "Select" next to the "Security/Currency" field, and select the new security you've created.

Make sure that you select a "Stocks" parent account _before_ selecting the security, otherwise you will not be able to find your security there.

Hope this helps, happy to help if you run into more issues.
