Thanks.

On any case, I think (and hope) I could fix it:
1.) Untick the trading accounts again
2.) Delete Trading hierarchy including all transactions
3.) Orphaned transactions will be in "Unbalanced-USD" and
"Unbalanced-EUR". Those are real transactions with zero splits. The zero
splits are just removed manually.

I hope I didn't mess up more but for now it seems fine again.
