Change Currencies
Some fields are locked when there is an existing position on the security. This is because a change would impact the existing position. These fields include Asset Currency, Investment Type, Processing Security Type, Quantity Type, Price Multiplier, and Quantity Scale. Other fields are locked so they cannot be changed.
