Last stand: measured against the full daily loss, not the stop after its reserve

The rule is: when hitting the day's loss limit would leave the account 15%
of that loss or less above its max-drawdown floor, ride without a
daily-loss stop. It had compared against the stop-out after the 10%
reserve, which made it stricter — $3,294.70 to the floor with $3,000 of
daily room (9.8% left) wasn't a last stand, and now is.
