Your thread must be about teaching a trading method to others.
-- YOU MUST REPLY TO THIS THREAD AND GIVE ME YOUR THREAD URL TO ENROLL --
You must make one post per day, every day, Mon-Fri, until the end of June 30. Skipping one day here and there is fine, but don't skip several days in a row.
Your posts, and your thread, must contain multiple screenshots and/or YouTube videos. If using screenshots, please mark them up using any number of free editing tools.
Your daily post can be a review of acceptable trades for the methodology in todays market, highlighting valid trades on your screen shots or video.
You must encourage members to ask you questions about your methodology, and you must answer them.
You must provide any necessary indicators for download as required for your posted method.
Your post must be made on nexusfi.com (formerly BMT), not a link to some off-site location like a blog. Embedding YouTube videos is fine for use as a summary of what you've written on nexusfi.com (formerly BMT).
nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) Administrators are excluded from winning, but nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) Moderators can participate if they wish.
The whole idea here is to educate. I want this contest to be about teaching and helping one another. The last contest was about helping yourself (journal), so it seems right that this contest is about helping others. Your thread and your posts should be aimed with that in mind.
The winner of the contest will be chosen by a User Poll. At the end of June, a user poll will be created that gives members the option to vote on who should win. The enrolled thread's will be listed as choices. Make certain you do not forget to reply to this thread and give your thread URL to enroll in the contest.
Big Mike's decisions are final.
If you already have a thread that is about teaching a methodology, you don't have to create a new one if you don't want to. Just be sure you reply and post the thread URL so I will mark it as "enrolled" into the contest, and make sure it exists in either Traders Hideout, or The Elite Circle.
You guys are welcome to use this thread to talk about contest entries and discuss them.
Good luck! I look forward to reading everyone's threads!
Last -- do me a favor, tell all your friends about our teaching contest and encourage them to come to nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) and create their own thread.

one question about the indicators, what if we do not have the right to share the indicator as it was written by someone else?
as in my case, it's is his proprietary code not mine.
that means, that i'll have to figure another indicator to work with other than my trading system or i'll just won't need to share it?
if it's the latter making screenshot is that appropriate?
If the method you are teaching uses "indicator xyz" and it is on your screenshots/videos/templates, then you need to make indicator xyz available for download in your thread (free).
The purpose of this contest is indeed education. The purpose of the prior contest was to journal, which primarily helps yourself but not so much others. We'll see how this one goes. Everyone seems to love talking about methodologies, so hopefully it goes well
I am a few days behind on private messages - normal for me. I put most of my time in on the public forum.
