Hi all.

I am trying to fire a trigger when a new opportunity is created to select the account's default currency for this opportunity. 

trigger currencyTransfer on Opportunity (before insert) {
  for(Opportunity opp : Trigger.new){
   opp.CurrencyIsoCode = opp.Account.CurrencyIsoCode;
   }
}

 I guess it doesn't work to lookup the currency through the account this way - what else can I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated
