I have been told to buy a 2BR 2BA even if you don't need it because you may be able to trade into a one bedroom for two weeks instead of one. If you buy a fixed week that will be in high demand, will you have to travel in that week only. Can you still trade for another week? It is very confusing.
You can find your RCI Deposit Trading Power here of the week you're thinking of purchasing:

If you buy a fixed week then you'll have to travel that week UNLESS you deposit it in RCI and search for an exchange. Once you deposit your week you can no longer use it .... it's then RCI's week. If you buy a floating week then you can choose different dates within a range of dates signified in your contract.
