Correct, I do use trading accounts.

Just two splits:  Income and Assets.

In Basic Ledger view, if I change the money amount and press Enter,
the system hangs.  I can click on Cancel at the top and that resets
the money amount back.

If I do Show Splits and change one of the two values shown,
I then get a popup about  currency conversion.  I accept the default.
I then change the other value, and again get a popup about
currency conversion.  I then do Enter and the changed transaction
is saved.  Clicking on Save (of the file) does not get a popup
about an open transaction.

So, the problem is related to Basic ledger view.
