Trade is a term used in New Orleans. It is usually used by females and punks. Punks created this terminology. Trade is a male that is all that, hot, handsome, ballin, on top, well kept up. There is a bounce song made by a punk in reference to this term.
Girl, I got a new trade.
Look at that trade with the dreads.
He is trade.
I want to get at that trade with the braids in his head.
