A comprehensive guide for researchers submitting papers to applied finance journals. It teaches how to 'red-team' your manuscript by proactively anticipating and strengthening defenses against the four most common fatal objections: lack of interest, inappropriate scope, weak identification, and unstated practical implication. Focuses on framing the contribution and optimizing the cover letter.

This guide clarifies the role of computation in theoretical computer science submissions, particularly for venues that prioritize theorems over empirical data. It distinguishes between legitimate forms of evidence—such as certified proof steps, constructive object discoveries, and illustrative examples—and inappropriate performance benchmarking. It helps researchers structure their work to align with theorem-based research, ensuring computational elements enhance the core theoretical contribution.
