Hello !

I have tried to summarize in a video the main principles of exchanging pieces. Namely, you should exchange when:

- when you are ahead in material

- when you have a space disadvantage

- when exchanging improves the activity of one your pieces

- simply when an opponent's piece is too strong

For instance, in the position above, is there an easy way to make your f4-Knight more powerful ? happy.png
