Well, any solution to limit the trading is welcome; I thnk I'm not the only one to feel this problem and I really hope the GM will do something asap.
Check the market and you'll see that where there is a day trading is impossible to win a bid.

Full quote for ned ;).

A market free like this is more destructive than the most I've seen in many other games... we need taxes, limitation and a severe impact on player's performance after a trade. I don't wanna play another economical simulator (I'm already addicted to Hattrick :PPP), I want a solid basket game.

8) We will institute an agent's commission on transfers, with the commission decreasing for players who have been with their current team for a longer time. The rate table will always be published, but will vary regularly, as it is one of the ways we will try to regulate the economy and prevent massive inflation or deflation.

"...These changes will be implemented at the conclusion of the all-star break..."

Thanks Burns ;)
So after ASG there will be the taxes; anyway dunno your opinion but probably it will be not enough. In hattrick there is the same sistem and the trading is always "a problem".

the taxes in HT are very low..i hope in something similar to:
sell a player who stay in your team only 2 weeks:50% taxes
sell a player who stay in your team 7 weeks(mid season): 25% taxes
sell a player who stay in your team 1 season: 0% taxes

It is hard to stop day trading with fees when a player is bought for $280 000 and sold for a fix price of $400 000. The profit will still be good. To stop the day trading, all have to stop shopping from the day-trader. Beyond that: Stronger restrictions like limiting the speed of the process might be a plus?

The GMs don't set the rules.

We can certainly give advice, but we're not the final decision-maker.

if you cant beat em join em!

i started out trading pretty successfully but even I have seen 4-6 clubs that I cant compete with now!!

day trading can and will exist at all levels not just at the top of the market.... buying at 300 to sell at 400 is obvious to everyone and i defy you to tell me this hasnt crossed everyones mind to do after they get their first TV money...

but buying at 50 and selling at 100 is just as effective... my objective was and still is to build my stadium to 8000 seats before my competitors... i just want a stronger financial footing each week. Along the way i have experimented with different players/positions so that when i go to the transfer market to buy and keep i can draw on the experiences i have had.

A tax or initial period is inevitable and im sure throughout BB history there will be other ways to gain a quick financial advantage...the game wont incorporate every feature that each individual desires to help their team be the best....just play the game as the rules are laid out.

According to me day trading should not be possible at all. As I see it, it makes no sense at all to make it possible o by a player just to sell heim the day after. I don't believe there is any player in the world that would accept signing to a team under those conditions. Therefore the possibility of day trading makes no sense and should be removed simply by having player contracts of at least half a season. If a player is released faster than this a severe fine should be payed to the player.

Daytrading only rises the prices in the market, which is bad anyways. This should be enough already to stop it, which will happen with the future tax changes.

I hope taxes for players who are with your team for less than half a season will be very high.
