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:
- From a Trade By position (what a surprise!).
- From the formation obtained after Heads Touch; all Trade, Heads Roll.
- From a 'Finish Long Trip' formation (i.e., Parallelogram Two-Faced Lines in which those in the Center Box are Facing Couples).
- From the formation obtained after Heads Pass Thru; all Press Ahead.
- From a R-H 3/4 Tag.
- 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.
