I'm not a home resort timeshare person, I'm a trader. I've found that with advent of e-plus I definitely more readily book a unit since I have the notion that I can uptrade it if/when something else becomes available. Just curious if others have found that their trading strategy has changed now that e-plus is here?

Absolutely; e-plus permits to keep that veritable bird in my hand and still chase the one in the bush.
We can now reserve the "wrong" day (Saturday to Saturday when we want Sunday to Sunday, etc.) or the "wrong" unit (studio instead of a one bedroom) so our trip is secure, if not perfect, because we can still chase the perfect trade.

You've summed it up perfectly. For the first time, I used all 3 retrades for my next trip to Hawaii. Felt great, but I'm a little uneasy to have no retrades remaining

You can still do a regular (non e-plus) retrade and pay another exchange fee, though obviously that will cost more.
I just used my third retrade for the first time also - first we were going to Cancun, then to Palm Desert, and finally to Orlando during my spring break week next March. And since the original deposited week was for April 2015, I could still do a retrade through April 2017 as long as I did it early enough.
