Empower your community with actionable resources that encourage sharing and feedback.
Plan your content calendar and auto-post to Skool, Circle, or Mighty Networks
Resource sharing posts work because they deliver tangible value to community members. By surfacing helpful tools, insightful articles, or must-see videos, these posts address common knowledge gaps and trading challenges. When members see direct benefits, they are more likely to engage, save, and share the content.
This approach also nurtures a culture of generosity and learning. As members experience the benefits of shared resources, they are encouraged to contribute their own discoveries, strengthening the collective expertise of the group. Clear calls to action and explanations of the resource's relevance make it easy for all member types to participate, whether by trying a tool or leaving feedback.

To implement these templates, select a resource that is relevant to current member needs or trending topics. Personalize the introduction to explain why the resource is useful, then add a call to action inviting members to engage. Rotate resource types (articles, tools, videos, checklists) to keep content fresh. Encourage feedback by asking members to share their experiences or suggest similar resources. Track which posts generate the most interaction to guide future selections.
These templates are designed for use across all platforms. Adapt the post format to fit platform conventions: use concise text and links for Slack or Discord, leverage visuals and formatted descriptions for Facebook or LinkedIn, and utilize polls or stories on Instagram. Always monitor engagement and adjust frequency to suit your community's preferences.
Options traders often develop unique strategies and log their trades for analysis. Prompt members to upload screenshots, spreadsheets, or code snippets of their backtests, or share anonymized extracts from their trade journals. Pin guidelines that outline how to share data while protecting sensitive information, and consider highlighting exemplary shared resources in a weekly roundup.
Options flow and scanner tools are valuable but can raise compliance or licensing issues. Require members to indicate if a resource is paid or free, and encourage them to share reviews or personal experiences rather than direct download links. Remind members to avoid sharing proprietary data or violating tool terms of service, and offer a dedicated thread for tool discussion.
Volatility modeling and Greeks calculators are advanced resources. When members share these tools, encourage them to include documentation or usage notes. Set up dedicated feedback threads so others can discuss results, suggest improvements, and flag errors. Consider inviting experienced members or moderators to review and verify complex resources.
Post-earnings trades are a popular options strategy topic. Create recurring threads specifically for earnings season, inviting members to share charts, trade rationale, outcomes, and lessons learned. Offer a template post format for case studies to standardize contributions, making them easier for others to learn from and discuss.
Proprietary indicators and scripts are often closely guarded. Make it clear in your guidelines that members should only share resources they own or have permission to distribute. Recommend using code snippets or explanations rather than full source files when appropriate, and provide opt-in channels where creators can choose to share with attribution.
Encourage experienced traders to tag their contributions by complexity or topic—such as 'Beginner,' 'Intermediate,' or 'Advanced.' Create pinned resource directories that organize shared materials accordingly. Consider running periodic 'deep dive' threads on specific advanced strategies, with summaries or Q&A sessions after, so newer members can learn at their own pace.
