u r right

but their stupidity really sabotages our national teams

& u r also right about the cheaper players being a factor

good national teams have players worth millions so only good managers get them

barbados often has players selling for $3-500k who end up in the hands of morons

nt sabotage happens all the time

u can just buy the player & play him 120mins a week & wreck his gs then play him for 0 mins & say it is bacause his gs is bad

how do i know?

im the coach of barbados & we get this bs a lot though why anyone wants to sabotage us is beyond me

Same reason Intel tries to smash AMD. Even weak competition is competition...

Day trading is a tough thing to do in BB. Mostly because of the high 20 or 21 % fee you have to pay if you sell the player immediately. Plus, BB's new rules made it impossible for players to be sold until you pay at least 1 week of salary.

Let's say you buy a player who costs $100k and his salary is $10k a week. You have to sell him for $135k just to break even. If you want to make a good profit, you have to sell him for much more. And that is not easy in the ever declining transfer market. You need to be very lucky.

On the bidding part, I think 3 minutes before the deadline is the best time to bid. Bidding 10 second before the end will add 3 more minutes on the clock, meaning more time for other managers to spot this player.

It's not hard to do on a "farm" team...

A "farm" usually has one 300k salary beast surrounded by 5k salary players. Pretty sure they can save millions over several season of "farming".

When the time is right, they can reach into those millions to buy a NT from an opposing NT country and fire that NT player.

Do you know that firing NT players will immediately place them in TL for cheap? :P

That I did not know, when did this happen?

I thought that only applies if the team goes bot, then the NT player will become a free agent.
But if the NT player was fired, then he will be retired.

There were issues pertaining to this before, and all you have to do is make a ticket for it. The fired players were, yes, retired, but after reporting it they can go back to the TL. But the protection is only valid for NT players when they were fired. That means 18 players only at a time.

It is tough to begin with, but once you get to used to it it isn't tough it's just time consuming.

It is worth doing, though. I've seen managers buy for peanuts and sell for diamonds. I'm talking figures of buying for 400k and selling for 700k+. I've seen some cases where managers can double and a half the price and still sell. A 400k buy and a 700k sell for a 30k guard is a 123k profit in what might take a week. A couple of those per week over a season.... It adds up nicely.

I am really glad, however, about the changes implemented to reduce Day Trading, but there surely can be more. Hopefully what I'm doing will help.
