TRADE WINDS =
The trade winds are the prevailing pattern of easterly surface winds found in the tropics, within the lower portion of the Earth's atmosphere, in the lower section of the troposphere near the Earth's equator. The trade winds blow predominantly from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern 

ANTI-TRADE WINDS=
antitrade winds" is a plural form of "antitrade wind": winds blowing from west to east and lying above the trade winds in the tropics.

Trade winds are the winds that flow from subtropical high-pressure belts to equatorial low-pressure belts. Westerlies are winds that flow from subtropical high-pressure belts to subpolar/circumpolar low-pressure belts. Both are permanent winds.
