[GNC] GNU cash keeps adding trading accounts

This may or may not be the same problem as in the earlier issue. The earlier issue concerned accounts created in Equity erroneously, not Trading. The (mis-) creation of trading accounts in different tree structures sounds like a different but related problem. Perhaps the fix implemented there will work for this as well, but then again, maybe not.

I think this is a known bug discussed/reported back in late April which has
been fixed and will presumably be released in v4.6 shortly.  Check out
https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2021-April/096343.html for
more details.  Bug report at https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798093
