Hi guys,
Continuing in the tradition of encouraging journals on FIO, I am announcing a new Journal Challenge for July 2019.
The rules are extremely simple:
a) The contest begins July 1 and ends July 31. All decisions made by futures io are final.
b) This thread that you are reading right now will act as the repository for all journals that are entered into the contest.
c) The author of a journal can enter his/her futures io journal into the contest by posting a link to his/her journal in this thread. Only the author of the journal can do this. Please post the link to the journal ONE TIME, AND ONE TIME ONLY in this thread.
d) Members of futures io will cast their votes for the best journals by using the "Thanks" button on the post that the journal author has made in this very thread. This is why it is very important the author of the journal make only one post, because only one post will be used to count the total number of "Thanks Received" in this thread, and that is how the winners will be decided. Members can vote for as many separate journals as they want by following the same procedure.
e) There will be three prizes awarded, based on the highest number of "Thanks Received" per the above. The prizes are as follows: 1st place: Lifetime NinjaTrader license valued @ $1099, 2nd place: 1-year NinjaTrader license valued @ $720, 3rd place: 1-year NinjaTrader license valued @ $720.
f) As we increase the number of these events, we find the need to keep it fair for everyone - so you are only eligible to win a prize in this event if you have not won any other prize within the prior 3 events on futures io. Feel free to participate in the process, but know prize eligibility will be a deciding factor in the final award process.
My goal with these contests is to encourage the journaling process, as I firmly believe the more you participate in the journal process, the better trader you will become.
In addition, for Elite Members, NinjaTrader has a special offer -- receive a $100 discount off a new lifetime multi-broker license, using this special link:
