Lets say I train PF. I sell 2 of them each season and buy 2 trainees to replace them. With the money earned I do upgrade my team e.g. 1 PG, 1 SG, 1 SF and 1 C and I also sell 1 of my former player for each position. This makes a total of 12 trades. Then may be I am going to be punished by the game engine and have 3 times 8 weeks of injury. For not being demoted I will have to replace them which will make 6 more trades (3 sales and 3 buys). I do have already 18 trades within 14 weeks without being a DT at all. So please my friendly BB-staff be somehow generous when interpreting “a couple of trades in the past 14 weeks”.
Dont forget to factor in the GS drops as well... and the fan loss when selling players...
There is something people don't consider here: first, the agent fee is really large if you resell quickly. 20%. If you have high turnover and you sell quickly, this is deadly for your income.
On the other hand, if you sell players that have been on your roster for a while, the agent fee will be, say, 10% or even as little as 5%. Even if you have a bit of transfers over the course of the season, you will still retain more money. This is where the major difference in income between traders and non-traders will come from.
This being said, I am iffy on the new changes. I am starting to feel like we're trying to kill a fly with a cannon here.
