Stop Loss Kata (original source: https://gist.github.com/gregoryyoung/1500720)
Developing solutions when time is involved is tricky, but testing when time is involved is yet another problem.

A trailing stop loss is a term used in financial trading. For a very in depth explanation you can read here (http://www.investopedia.com/articles/trading/03/080603.asp) and here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_(exchange)#Stop_orders), however we do not need a huge amount of background in order to do the kata as we are going to limit the problem a bit.

Say you buy into a stock at $10. You want it to automatically get sold if the stock goes below $9 to limit your exposure. This threshold is set by subtracting 10% from the original position. The term "trailing" means that if the price goes up to $11 then the sell point becomes $10, if it goes up to $15 then the sell point becomes $14, maintaining the original 10% margin of $1.

The kata is to create something that implements a trailing stop loss and to do it with TDD.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics

• elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent
