Status: offline 		I'm playing a fictional 1948 league and 2 teams made a trade August 1. I went to the association menu on August 2 1948 and it read only 5 days left to the trading deadline. How did they determine the deadline back then? Was it a certain number of days before the end of the season? A certain number of days after the start of the season? Magic? Thanks for any answers, I guess I should have done some research before starting the league.

After googling 15 June trading deadline I found that it changed to 31 July in 1986.

"
Trade Deadlines and Other Rules



Trades are not forbidden after trading deadlines. Rather, all players involved must first clear waivers in order to be traded. "

Could this be why puresim cpu teams keep trading after the probably trade deadline?
