I'm going to say this for the benefit of anyone using this thread.
The most efficient way to trade in a Forum, and the most likely to get you what you want, is to simply list what you have for trade and what you want. Also list any special conditions you have for trading first.
For your haves, you can add additional details that you think people might want to know (for EVds you'll want to say how high their main stats are, for Events you'll want to say whether they're UT or not, for Shinies you might want to list nature)
[example]
1. I only do 1-for-1 trades. If I deny a 2-for-1 (which I will) it's not that I don't trust you personally, it's just that I don't trust anyone over Wi-Fi.
2. I have every TM, every Berry and most likely every rare item you'd want. Every trade I do I'll throw in one of your choice.
3. Everything is legit. I don't deal illegit Pokemon (or items).

Obviously your lists won't have to be as long or high-demanding as mine lol. But the idea is, you put everything you have that other people might want up for offer so if someone has what you want, they have a higher chance of finding something they want in return. It's useful to put a range of different categories of Haves too - Rare items, Rare TMs/Berries, 1st/2nd/3rd Gen Starters, Egg Move Pokemon, Shinies, Legends, EVds, Shiny EVds, Events are the popular categories. If what you're thinking of offering doesn't fit under one of those categories, it's probably not worth putting up for offer.
NOTE: Yes that is actually my list of Haves/Wants
