Precedence problem with + and % apparently.  This works:

puts(("Considering saving the trade-group"   +
  "\tfor symbol \"%s\", "+
  "\tgroup size: %d, " + 
  "\tand # groups saved thus far: " +
      "open(%d), " +
      "completed(%d)") % 
      [savedSymbol, tradeGroup.size, openTrades.size, completedTrades.size])
