Bedrock Edition:Invalid Max Uses Wandering Trader
All villagers and wandering traders have max uses for each trade which determine how many times they can be traded with until they lock the trade. This value has been changed many time over the versions, and as such there are many variants of wandering traders possible from these changes. Note that all discontinued wandering traders are temporary discontinued due to their despawn timer.
Obtaining
All the following wandering traders can be obtained simply through natural spawning
Original Wandering Traders
When Wandering Traders were first added to the game in 1.10.3, they had many of the same mechanics as villagers. This included not having defined max uses, instead always being 7 at the start, and increasing when trading. This allows every trade in 1.10.3 through 1.11.3 to have max uses of 7X, with X being defined as the amount of times traded with the villager. A list of all invalid max use trades is below. In order to preserve these trades, these wandering traders should not be loaded in 1.11.4

Observing
This tag is not directly observable, and can only be observed by trading with the wandering trader until they run out of trades and counting the number of trades. This can only be done once to observe this, as the wandering trader will lock their trades. It can also be assumed what the max uses is based on the types and amounts of trades, for example if a wandering trader only has 4 trades, they must all be invalid max uses trades since the version range matches up.
