I wonder if the 'Stop when result is accurate' should simply be
dropped - it was an experiment and it has some severe limitations -
for example when the equity is near zero.

But I'd sort of like to keep the stop options on the general page,
because they are things you may often want to change. I'm playing
around some with trying to get the various panes of this page better
organised, some of them are definitely sub-optimal.
