Carsten, I'd go with translation error for the use of Aktientellung. From de.po: msgid "" "A summary of splits is shown as follows. If the summary is correct, and " "there are no errors, please press \"Apply\". You may also press \"Back\" to " "review your choices, or \"Cancel\" to quit without making any changes. " msgstr "" "Hier ist die Zusammenfassung der Aktienteilung abgeschlossen. Falls diese " "korrekt ist und ohne Fehler, klicken Sie »Anwenden«. Sie können auch " "»Zurück« klicken, um Ihre Eingaben zu überprüfen oder »Abbrechen«, um diesen " "Dialog zu beenden, ohne die Änderungen zu speichern. "
I guess that needs a translator comment that "splits" means transaction splits. "Buying stock long" is a programming error: It's marked for translation at its declaration but not translated at its point of use.
