+Often there are many low-volume, low-value trades.  It can be rather

+
+The "minimum trade value" specifies a minimum profit that you would
+like to get from each (commodity, collect island, deliver island)
+triplet.  Trades which don't meet this minimum will start out unticked in
+the "Relevant trades" table and will not be included in the voyage
+trading plan.

+
+If you want to change your threshold, you have to select "Apply",
+which will automatically tick and untick all of the tickboxes for in
+"Relevant trades", as appropriate.  This will undo any customisation
+of the set of trades you have already done by manually ticking and
+unticking individual trades.

+The value is an absolute poe amount, typically 5 or 10, representing

+of view) clicking in the YPP client to collect and deliver a
+commodity.  Setting a higher threshold will make each island visit
+faster, by excluding trivial transactions, and so reduce the chance
+that market conditions change adversely during your voyage.
