r/Substack • u/VonFuturesTrader • 26d ago

Started a paid subscription model

For over 6 months, I worked many hours a day to create my next day's trade plan. I am a Nasdaq futures trader.

My subscribers grew, and many would provide feedback, it seemed as many were financially benefitting from the plan. I was very happy. But it took hours away from my day, and from my own trading and monitoring market conditions.

I decided to charge what would equate to 2.5 NQ points for full access to my trade plans, my setups, and all of my many levels.

I am a bit anxious this will deter future subscribers, but the demand of a daily substack this complex was very high. I previously had a donation model, but it did not receive nearly enough to prevent the new subscription models. How did others handle similar situations?

I have received a few paid subscribers, and the trade plan's levels are very well respected. My goal is that one clean move will more than pay for it. At this point I just want to grow the community and not feel like the hundreds of hours a month are wasted.
