From truck stops to charts
Built by somebody who had to learn around a real workday.
I’m Joshua—the Trucker Stock Trader. I’m a husband, father, and long-haul truck driver who knows what hard work, sacrifice, and consistency really mean. I didn’t come from Wall Street. I learned the market while working a demanding job, studying between loads and whenever time allowed.
Along the way, I invested thousands of dollars in courses, books, tools, and education to better understand technical analysis, options, risk management, and the discipline responsible trading requires. That journey gave me a real passion for the stock market—and an even stronger passion for helping other working people learn without the hype, confusion, or get-rich-quick promises.
My goal is to explain the market in plain language, share the lessons I paid to learn, and help students build knowledge, patience, and a risk-first process—one clear mile at a time.
“Some of the best trades are no trades.”

The academy course
The course is still being built.
I am building a structured path from brokerage and chart basics through research, risk management, and trading plans. The full course is not open for enrollment yet.
In the meantime, you can join the Discord community and use the tools described above.
DISCORD MEMBERSHIP
Start with one week free.
$7.99 / month afterward
Join the DiscordThe full academy course is separate and still in development. This website does not collect payment.Straight answers
Before you get started.
No hype, hidden promises, or pretending trading is easy. Here is what to expect.
How much does the Discord cost?
One week free, then $7.99/month. Review the membership terms when joining. The full academy course is separate and still being built.
Can beginners join the Discord?
Yes. Bring your questions about stock market basics, trading, investing, chart reading, and risk management. The separate course curriculum is still in development.
Will the community tell me exactly what to buy or sell?
No. The goal is to teach you how to research, plan, manage risk, and make your own decisions—not to create dependency on alerts or copy trades.
Do I need a large account or expensive software?
No. You can learn with free charting tools and paper trading before risking real money. The principles apply whether an account is small or large.
Can I learn while working a full-time job?
That is exactly who the academy is being built for. Lessons are designed to be clear and focused so you can progress around a demanding schedule.
Are profits guaranteed?
Never. Trading involves risk, and profits are not guaranteed. Losses are possible. Education can improve your process and discipline, but it cannot guarantee an outcome.
Education, not financial advice.
Trucker Stock Trader Academy provides educational information only. Nothing on this website is investment, financial, legal, or tax advice, and no outcome or profit is guaranteed. Trading stocks, options, and other assets involves substantial risk, including possible loss of principal. Always make decisions based on your own circumstances and risk tolerance.
