Before it gets to create a new security, when you entered an existing
symbol in the new investment wizard, you should have received that
question I mentioned.

I can confirm that it does not now work the way it did/should.  In fact,
when I try, I get the following on the console:-
"Object::connect: No such slot
KInvestmentDetailsWizardPage::slotCheckForExistingSymbol(const QString&)
Object::connect:  (sender name:   'm_investmentSymbol')
Object::connect:  (receiver name: 'm_investmentDetailsPage') "

I would submit a bug. (I think you should be posting to
kmymoney-devel at kde.org, by the way.)
