What is a Trade Dominator?
It is a tool to help you decide the value of a Trade / Transaction
How do I get started?
First thing you will want to do is add the number of starters for each
position at the bottom of the screen.
Then you will want to add all of players to your Before and After team. To do
this, Click on the Add Button and then Add the players to either the
"Before Team", or the "After Team" or both. You can keep adding players
until you click on the Close button.
You can use the Remove Button to remove the player from the "Before Team"
or the "After Team".
Why do I add in my entire roster and not just the players I am trading?
The Trade Dominator evaluates depth based on roster requirements placing emphasis on starters, but still assigning value to key reserves. Applications that judge a trade just based on the players involved in the swap are missing the mark in our opinion because they are not seeing the effect of the players that will take over for the lost player. For example, a trade of Koren Robinson for Donovan McNabb could seem unfair on the surface, but if you have great depth at WR and poor WRs, it could be just the trade to significantly help your team.
Can I save / open a Trade Session?
Yes, click on File-Save and give it a name. Then when you want to open
it, click on File-Open and then select the name.
Change History:
Trade Dominator Version 2.0d
Added the View Strength Summary. It shows the strengths for all teams, both overall and individual positions. It is sortable by column, so you can easily identify targets for trading.
Added a Synchronize Before Team with After Team. This way you can record everybody's transactions for the week in the After Team so you can evaluate which teams got stronger and which got weaker. Once this is done, you can hit the Synchronize button to set all of the Before Teams to be the same as the After Teams. This way you are ready to go for the next week.
===========================================================================
Trade Dominator Version 2.0c
Added the "Top Waivers" button. If you enter the players for each team in your league, the Trade Dominator will now look at the remaining players and organize them from best value to lowest value by position. It color codes the players that are likely to improve your team, and it grays out the players that probably won't help your team much, but are shown for completeness.
Fixed a bug where Az-Zahir Hakim was not importing from the Draft Dominator correctly. If one of the teams in your league has Hakim on it, you should either manually enter Hakim or re-import from the Draft Dominator again.
===========================================================================
Trade Dominator Version 2.0b
Fixed a bug where the Before and/or After team wouldn't stick when scrolling through the teams.
===========================================================================

program would crash with a Subscript Error.
