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.

Please please please don't do anything like a Transfer Compare. Ever.

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.

you're a DT yourself, what the hell are you talking about?? you're one of the many ppl that are ruining this game...

No one is "ruining" the game by DTing.

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.

I don't think that is the case either.

References to "the game" clearly refer to BuzzerBeater as a whole.

I have been playing for just over a month and have started a bit of daytrading since day 5 or so. I work fulltime and this way I am still able to make great improvements on my team.

Daytraders can't help it if there are people who are willing to buy huge prices for players on a match day and sell them for half that price 3 days after. I've seen this a lot of times already.

I think Daytrading will balance out the economy more then most people think, since with daytraders you at east get a better minimum price as daytraders also raise the bidding against eachother.

If the community doesn't want daytraders they should use minimum prices to avoid daytraders getting a cheap deal...

Those are just my two cents.

Kind regards,

That's just nonsense.

When there werent any daytraders the prices will be lower for all players. When DT wasn't there the poorer newer teams who started a few weeks ago could afford to buy some players for a better price if they are lucky. Now that's impossible, because all the daytraders will hunt those cheap buys to make profit of it.
This is only increasing the gap between the richer and better teams and the newer, poorer teams. The richer teams are getting richer and richer by daytrading, with all that money they can build a strong team, the poorer teams don't have the money to buy those players and they can't hope on a cheap buy anymore. So the poorer teams can't keep up with teams in higher divisions because they can't make their team stronger that easily. No lucky cheap buys for them anymore, so not easy to improve at all.

Just quit the daytrading, everyone says everywhere that they want to have a realistic game etc etc etc. But when it comes to daytrading this suddenly changes. I've never seen a team buy a player for a few millions in the NBA and sell that player 3 days later for a few more millions. This daytrading stuff has nothing to do with a basketbal game, with realism and with a 'real market'.
