Like your drive for suggestions, but can you tell me what are you trying to curb? You wrote an idea, however there is no explanation what is suppose to tackle down.

What I see is almost complete control over the market which most likely will have a footprint on vanishing liquidity - max return, or rather minimum loss cause you cannot make profit, on non-trained players (that is like 90% of them) will push me back from listing players.

As I agree that it is worth to think about some limitations around players rotation in one club (trading club rather than basketball club), but not the way as you presented.

I am totally against any profit limits imposed on clubs as it has nothing to do with free market. Market should naturally adjust to prevailing conditions and it does so. The inflation is a result of maturity of clubs and shrinking user base. If you see that market is overpriced then just start training and sell young player with a profit. Soon, you will have many followers and market will be again flooded with well-trained players (and ultimately lead to price decrease).

So if i try to open up the market then your first post is total contradiction of that idea. You suggest imposing multiple fines/limits on clubs (100% tax on non-trained, max profit for u21, max amount on draftees etc.) on trading that is likely to shut down market. Suggestion has nothing to do with deep players choice on TL that you are looking for.

It is easier to extend player holding period that will slightly reduce players rotation in a club ( would not say it is a big problem right now).

I do not really understand what is wrong with saving money. For me it is a natural step for improving team. if you want better player you need money to buy better players (more valued than your current players).

It is a cycle, if you see market is overpriced then just start training and benefit from it. Later you will gain followers and that would be a time to switch flooded market for smaller price.

P.S. There is no daytrading as far as I know as you cannot buy and sell same player at the same day.

First of all, I am not going to enter the discussion where the loudest win the conversation.

I do not really know who you think you are opening the market as you are trying to impose more taxes. That would end up that all managers will either be even or lose money except the owner who drafted the player ("When you buy a player the price you bought him for is your max return should you ever sell him").

It is natural for me that most people are losing money on the market. It is one-zero game for buyers and sellers. You either make better bet than your rival or you lose same amount of money that is equal to gain of counterpart. You just can not make it a place where everybody wins.

I am still hardly see what you are trying to achieve. Getting rid of taxes? I am fine with that, however it is suppose to mimic agent fees from real world. On the other hand, 3% tax is not much.

Currently, there are two limitations: above said 3% tax and player holding period. It does not sound as a huge problem. All else you are trying to imply has nothing to do with this. Market is not trashed, it is rather sheep herd movement a problem.
