Trade By
What's your definition of the call, Trade By?

I want it to be simply "Circulate", but I don't know all the legal setups it can start from at Mainstream.

Trade By:
Centers Pass Thru as Outsides Trade.

I've only ever called Trade By from formations where the Outsides are an Out-Facing Couple.

I've called Trade By from the following positions:

  1. From a Trade By position (what a surprise!).
  2. From the formation obtained after Heads Touch; all Trade, Heads Roll.
  3. From a 'Finish Long Trip' formation (i.e., Parallelogram Two-Faced Lines in which those in the Center Box are Facing Couples).
  4. From the formation obtained after Heads Pass Thru; all Press Ahead.
  5. From a R-H 3/4 Tag.
  6. From the formation obtained from Out-Facing Lines after the Belle Couple Press Ahead as the Beau Couple 1/4 Stable Shakedown.

A long time ago, I remember dancing a tape (Lee, I think) where he called Trade By from the formation obtained from R-H Columns after the Centers do a Couple Up. He wanted the Outsides to Trade.
