✓

Public scoreboard

Every closed trade — win or loss — lands on the same scoreboard. Time-stamped. Always live.

✓

Plain English only

Entry, stop, target, and 2 sentences on why I'm taking it. That's the template. No jargon dump.

✓

Just one guy. Real account.

No "analyst team." No co-host. Just Dan, calling setups he's already in. Same account, same fills.

§01 / WHY WE EXIST

Most stock Discords feel like
a screaming pump group.
We're not that.

Paid trading communities have a bad reputation. We know — we paid for plenty of them before starting this one. Here's the difference, side by side.

THE OTHER GUYS

  • Naked tickers thrown in chat with no context
  • "Easy money!" hype with no risk plan
  • Wins screenshotted; losses quietly deleted
  • No founder face, no real track record
  • Sketchy small-caps that pump and dump

MAIN STREET TRADES

  • Every alert has entry, stop, target, and a 2–3 sentence thesis
  • Disciplined position sizing, posted with each trade
  • Public scoreboard — every closed trade lives on the record
  • Dan calls trades live every morning. Real face. Real account.
  • Liquid, real companies only ($500M+ market cap)
§02 / WHAT YOU GET
Six things most paid Discords don't actually deliver

A research desk, not a chat room.

We built Main Street Trades around the six things every paying member kept telling us the other groups got wrong. Here's what you get the day you join.

01 / ALERTS

Tagged stock & options alerts

Every alert tagged SHARES · CALL · PUT · DAY · SWING · LEAP. Filter the feed to the strategy you actually trade.

02 / DISCIPLINE

Entry, stop, target — every time

No naked tickers. If we can't risk-frame it, we don't post it. You always know where to get out.

03 / LIVE ROOM

Daily market-open voice room

9:25–10:30 ET, every weekday. Dan calls setups live during the most volatile hour of the day.

04 / RECEIPTS

Public scoreboard

Every closed trade. Time-stamped. Win-rate, average R, longest winning streak. Always on, always public.

05 / CALENDAR

The calendar that matters

Earnings and macro events (CPI, FOMC, jobs) posted 24 hours in advance. No more being blindsided.

06 / THESIS

The Thesis Vault

Every long-term call comes with a full write-up. Read the reasoning, not just the ticker symbol.

§03 / SAMPLE ALERT

Here's what an alert actually looks like.

Every alert posted in Main Street Trades follows this exact format. No mystery, no hype. Just the trade, the why, and how much you should risk. Take it, watch it, or skip it — your call.

This is a real example from last Tuesday's premarket brief. See the full archive once you're inside.

§04 / WHO IS DAN

Just a regular trader
who got tired of the noise.

"I started Main Street Trades because every other paid Discord I tried felt like a casino in a chat window."

I'm Dan. I've been trading my own account for eight years — through 2020 stimulus mania, through 2022's bear market, through everything in between. I'm not a "team of analysts." I'm not an RIA. I'm not a fund manager. I'm just a guy who reads charts every morning before the open, takes my own trades, and writes down the reasons.

Main Street Trades is what I wish existed when I started: a room where every trade is explained, every result is tracked publicly, and nobody talks down to you for asking what a stop-loss is. We're built for everyday traders, not Wall Street insiders.

Dan, founder of Main Street Trades

§07 / FREQUENTLY ASKED

The questions we get every week.

Are you a registered investment advisor?

No, and we never claim to be. Main Street Trades is an educational community for traders. Nothing posted is personalized investment advice. You are responsible for your own trades and your own risk. We are not a broker-dealer, RIA, or fund.

How many alerts do you post per week?

Typically 5–12 short-term setups and 1–3 long-term theses per week. We prioritize quality over quantity. If the market doesn't give us clean setups, we don't manufacture them just to look busy.

Do you actually take your own trades?

Yes. Every alert posted is in my own portfolio, sized appropriately. The public scoreboard reflects my real entries and exits. I'm not calling trades I'm not taking myself.

Can I cancel any time?

Yes — one click in Whop. Access continues through the end of the billing period you've already paid for. No "talk to retention" calls, no 30-day notice tricks.

I'm a complete beginner. Is this for me?

If you've placed at least one stock trade in your life, yes. We don't talk down to beginners, and we explain the reasoning behind every alert in plain English. We do recommend reading the #how-i-trade channel and the Education Vault before you risk real money.

What's the difference between Premium and VIP?

Premium gets every public alert, the live voice room, the scoreboard, and all discussion channels. VIP adds a smaller set of higher-conviction alerts, my live portfolio fills, a monthly group AMA, and direct DM access. VIP is capped at 100 seats with a waitlist when full.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — 3 days of full Premium access. Card on file, but no charge during the trial, and you can cancel any time during it without being billed.

§08 / JOIN THE ROOM

The room opens
at 9:30 ET tomorrow.

Come see how it runs. If it's not for you in 3 days, you walk — no charge, no upsell, no retention DM. Either way, you'll know.
