What works for me: - check the boxes 'Placeholder' and 'hidden' in the account properties. By that, the hidden accounts are excludes from the drop-down list when selecting accounts for transfers - create new namespaces for securities (i.e., 'stock expired') and assign no longer used securities to the new namespace(s). Thus, whenever you create a new account and a new security you have a very small list to to select the appropriate namespace for assigning the security to the new account.
