Trading is a very big part of the Fantrax game, but how would trading during your draft or even before it work? Would you be foolish to trade away all your FAB pre-draft, or do a complex pick trade? Trading is always a delicate task with fine margins being the difference between winning multiple gameweeks or going on a 6 game losing streak. I personally have been involved in many trades both before and during my drafts in past seasons, so I have truly seen the pros and cons of each of the sides. Playing it safe is never the way to go to win a title, but just how much risk should you take? This article below will help you decide if you should trade draft picks or if you are better off holding off until after it is complete.

How it Works
In order for this to work, your commissioner must ensure that you are able to both trade draft picks, and FAB. They can do this through the commissioner league settings under the "Transactions & Periods" tab, then proceeding to the "Trades" sub tab. Ensure that you have checked off: allowing trades before the draft, allowing trades during the draft, and allow trading of draft picks. Once all these settings are good to go, then trade offers and counters are made in the same manner as during the season. Just scroll down to the bottom of your team page or your trading partners page and click the Trade toggle under the draft picks or FAB section.
