I don't think you are understanding my point still.
This is not about day trading, not about the new rule, not about the new game play as a result. It is about the calculation.

Forget it. I'm surprised only CrazyEye took an interest in this.

It was anounced in the news that this was going to happen, and everyone was given about a week time to sell players in the old system.


BINGO...I think LA-Lord of Doom highlights the critical point here. The old system can't last for ever...

Given a week to ADD to the increased tax you had already accumalated in the past weeks... this means by rushing to sell you are in fact worsening your position.

On reflection - i cant grumble as I used the market as my main initial strategy. I do find it interesting that the rules are set and have penalised managers who surely wouldnt have continued to trade had they know the rule was impending. Ironically the managers who 'gave in' to DT's and started copying to maintain the growth of their franchise have been the ones that have been penalised!

I do think the taxes should be valid for sales only over $50,000.
This way you can replace injuries and also this will maintain a bottom for the market whereby any team can hopefully make some money on their fringe players.. (not their worse ones that still need to be fired) As soon as the bid went over $50,000 this would count towards your total.

So this may encourage early bidders & provide more liquidity into the market as if a opening bid of $50k was slapped down the next bidder would have to be more serious about the transaction. Also it is unlikely a $50k bid is going to give much scope for DT profit.

This week was 3-4 days, and if i look at my team the old changes doesn't scare me but the new one does ... So don't say we got 2 weeks or 1 week, we got one try to sell those players. And on this transfermarket you need something called patient, better put an player 3 or 4 times on the list, then selling him under value and you heard that from the BB ever when they got problems with the market that it was silly to put then on list under value but that what they force us to do with such short periods.

I do think the taxes should be valid for sales only over $50,000.

For under 50k i can't replaced injuries, so the next weeks get taff for me good luck that it was enough to catch on for the cup match who is a bot.
