GM Trading aggressiveness: What does it mean?

That's one of the new features to differentiate between GM's. I like the new traits, but am unsure what it means. There's a "trade frequency" to determine how likely the GM is to make trades so that's not it.

So...what is trade aggressiveness?

How much they want to make trades maybe? Like preller will make deals quickly and others will want to negotiate more is my guess

It definitely isn't how much they want to make trades, as that's covered in trade frequency.

It probably does relate though, as you suggest, to negotiating style or something...but I'd really like to know how.

I love when they add traits, but I really like to know what they mean.

Possibly it's how likely they are to ask for more in the trade?

An aggressive trader for instance might want a PTBNL-type guy and/or cash added to the trade, whereas a less aggressive guy might just be happy with the one-for-one trade?

Just a guess, really.

That was my guess as soon as I saw the stat. It has been used in some other sports games that way.
