Morphology
The meaning of 'trade magazine' is directly compositional: 'trade' (industry) + 'magazine' (periodical publication) yields a publication for a particular industry. This noun+noun compound follows common English and cross‑linguistic patterns, so a B1 learner who knows both words should readily infer the meaning.
Etymology
Trade magazine comes from old papers made for one kind of work; trade means a job or business and magazine means a regular publication. These papers shared news, tools and ads for people in that job, so today trade magazine means 'a magazine for people in a particular industry'.
