It is a basketball game, and should be played as one.

Must set this in stone.

If three trades per day seem reasonable (without taxes/contracts/heavy effects on the team performance) then this is NOT a basketball simulator... is just a worst version of Hattrick (the are more limitation for massive trading there -_-') with "jump shot" instead of "scoring". What a shame, I thought it was different when I sign up five months ago.

Tough talk for a guy with 61 transfers. And there seems to be quite a bit of profit to be made in less than 3 trades a day:
Total Sales: $3957313
Total Purchases: $2506900
Transfer Balance: $1450413

I'm not singling you out here, but why not call for 3 transfers a month? A limit on the number of transfers in a season?

Any action taken to hamper trading will likely effect something else unforseen. There are plenty of more important things within BB to be fixed without worrying about where fools spend their money and how much they spend. A simple read through the bugs and suggestions forums prove that.

look at this guy for an example:

in his roster he's got 50 player... 50!!! and almost all of them are for sale...

EDIT: Removed de facto transfer ad.

You may want to delete the link as it may be seen as a transfer ad.

That guy doesn't seem to be very good at trading, though (which may explain the 50 players)
Total Sales: $786700
Total Purchases: $1326700
Transfer Balance: $-540000

Daytrading leads to price inflation.

I have played BB since July, so I don't think that 61 transfers make me a heavy daytrader... I don't want even blame people that make a pair of transactions in a week, but here are we talking about 20/30 transfers in a single week. Not quite the same situation, IMHO.

No one is "ruining" the game by DTing.

Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

Indeed, not ruining the game, but ruining the economy and the realism and the fun for teams who just started.

But you are right, DT doesn't ruin the game.
