What we’re about
First Landing Traders
"Where beginners and experienced traders learn side by side"
Trading can be an incredibly rewarding pursuit — and also a surprisingly solitary one.
First Landing Traders exists to change that.
This group is a community-first Meetup for people who trade (or want to learn to trade) independently, whether that’s stocks, futures, options, or other markets. Our goal is not to sell products, promote services, or push strategies — it’s to bring traders together in a supportive, educational, and respectful environment.
🌱 What This Group Is About
*A safe, welcoming space to learn and grow
*Educational and discussion-based, not sales-driven
*A place for curiosity, questions, and shared experience
*Community support for a craft that’s often done alone
*Focused on long-term learning, risk awareness, and personal goals
We believe trading is a skill that improves faster when people can learn together, share perspectives, and support one another — regardless of where they are on their journey.
👥 Who This Group Is For
This group is intentionally inclusive and diverse. You are welcome here if you are:
*Brand new and curious about trading
*Actively trading part-time or full-time
*Experienced and open to sharing lessons learned
*Exploring trading as a source of income or personal growth
*A student, professional, retiree — or anywhere in between
*Women and men of all ages who value respectful dialogue and learning
You do not need to be an expert. You only need a willingness to learn.
🚫 What This Group Is NOT
To keep this space safe and valuable for everyone:
❌ No product pitches
❌ No paid services or coaching promotions
❌ No signal-selling or hype culture
❌ No pressure to trade a specific way
This is a community, not a marketplace.
📅 What to Expect at Meetups
We meet once a month in a relaxed, welcoming setting. Meetings may include:
*Group discussions on trading psychology, risk, and process
*Educational topics led by members or guest volunteers
*Open Q&A for beginners and experienced traders alike
*Conversations about goals, challenges, and lessons learned
*Time to connect socially with people who “get” trading
You can participate as much or as little as you like — listening is always welcome.
🤝 Our Community Values
*Respect over ego
*Learning over boasting
*Curiosity over certainty
*Support over competition
Everyone’s financial goals are different — our shared goal is to help each other learn, improve, and succeed on our own terms.
If trading has ever felt isolating, intimidating, or overwhelming — you are not alone.
We’d love to meet you.
