Home › Market News › The Best Trading Discord for Futures Traders
Trading can feel like a lonely game. Staring at charts, questioning your setups, riding the highs and lows with nobody to talk to. Sure, trading can be exciting, but it can also feel isolating, and that isolation is what quietly breaks most traders, not their strategy.
That’s where Topstep comes in. Our Discord is the largest futures trading community with more than 170,000 traders trading, learning, and pushing each other forward. It’s not just a chatroom. It’s where futures traders find discipline, growth, and long-term success together.
Inside, you’ll find conversations that cover the full scope of trading. Members talk risk management, leverage, and margin while comparing strategies for setting profit targets and monitoring positions. Others swap insights on products like the S&P 500, Dow, Nasdaq, and key commodities. Every discussion ties back to the same goal: helping traders stay consistent, stay informed, and build the habits that lead to success in the fast-paced world of futures.
If you’ve never used it before, Discord is a platform built around live, organized conversations. Think of it like a digital trading floor: instead of shouting across a pit, traders talk in dedicated channels for strategies, products, or psychology. You can jump into real-time conversations, share charts, or join live events, all in one place.
Most “trading Discords” online charge for access. You pay before you can even see what’s happening inside. At Topstep, it’s different. Topstep’s Discord is 100% free and open to every trader. You don’t need to be a Topstep trader, and there’s no paywall or hidden catch. Just like most of our other resources (think blogs packed with tips, live TopstepTV shows, and plenty more), it’s part of our commitment to the trading community: giving every trader a place to learn, share, and become better together.
That means you don’t have to wonder what’s behind the curtain. You can sign up today and see one of the most active prop trading communities in the world.
With a prop firm like Topstep, we give you the funding, structure, and community to trade smarter. Inside our Discord, you’ll find channels designed for how futures traders really trade day to day. Let’s take a quick tour so you know what to expect.
The first stop is The Lobby. It’s the heartbeat of the community, where funded Ambassadors are almost always online answering questions, troubleshooting issues, and pointing you in the right direction. This is also where you’ll see Combine passes, payout milestones, and trader wins celebrated in real time. It’s the energy boost every trader needs at the start of their day.
From there, you might wander into Indices, a channel that’s always buzzing with setups and market talk. Whether you trade the S&P 500, Dow, Nasdaq, or other major futures products like crude oil and bitcoin futures, this is where traders break down entries, share market news, and compare notes on how price action is moving.
If accountability is what you’re looking for, step into Trading Buddies. Here, traders introduce themselves, compare trading sessions, and link up with partners. You’ll see plenty of conversations around discipline, risk management, position sizing, and sticking to profit targets. Whether you trade the NY open or the overnight Asian session, you’ll find someone to team up with and keep you consistent.
Here, traders are introducing themselves, comparing trading sessions, and linking up with partners to stay accountable during the NY open.
Need a quick answer? That’s where Stormy, our AI Help Bot, comes in. Stormy is online 24/7 to handle everything from program rules to trading basics.
And if you need more than a quick answer, submit a support ticket right inside Discord, and our team will follow up.
If you’re looking to sharpen your edge, go to the Strategies channel inside the Trading Floor. There are more than seven dedicated strategy rooms where traders dive deep into approaches like Supply & Demand, Order Flow, Fibonacci, and Algo Trading. These focused discussions often highlight the role of leverage, margin, and psychology, helping you refine not just your setups but also your mindset.
Dedicated strategy rooms like ICT/SMC, Supply & Demand, Orderflow, Fibonacci, and Algo Trading give traders focused spaces to dive deep into their preferred methods.
And finally, don’t miss the Coaching channels. This is where the Topstep Coaches provide guidance on psychology, strategies, and staying consistent. Each coach has their own dedicated space, so you always know where to connect (we’ll dig deeper in a moment).
Every room is built to save you time, cut the noise, and keep you locked in on what matters most: trading well. At the end of the day, it’s still your strategy and your trades, but now you’ve got a prop firm and a crew behind you to make sure you don’t have to figure it all out alone.
💡 Pro tip: If you can’t find a channel, head to Browse Channels in Discord and opt in. Still stuck? No worries. Admins (who are part of the Topstep team) can help with technical issues, while Ambassadors (funded traders who’ve been in the community for years) are there to share their experience and help you navigate the program.
What separates Topstep’s Discord from every other “best trading Discord” list? Group coaching.
This isn’t an admin dropping canned responses or “gurus” charging for access. In Topstep’s Discord, you get direct access to professional trading coaches—the same ones you see on TopstepTV. We’re talking futures experts like Jack, a veteran with 50+ years in the markets; Jay, with 12 years of order flow experience; Dakota, one of our top-performing traders (watch his six-figure payout); and Anne-Marie, a 20-year market veteran and author of The Trading Book series. And that’s just a few of them! Our coaching roster brings decades of experience to help traders stay disciplined and consistent every day.
Where else can you jump into a free Discord channel and talk shop with pros who trade what you trade? All you need to do is join the #group-coaching channel to meet the team and connect with other traders. Each coach has their own space where they post hours, host live Q&As, and help you stay disciplined and consistent day after day.
The Coaching Channels bring you direct access to the same TopstepTV coaches you know and trust, Dakota, Jay, Anne Marie, and more.
Plus, daily free coaching events cover psychology, strategies, and live market setups. There are no paywalls or upsells. It’s all available for any of our Discord members to join and learn.
Daily events like “Futures Fundamentals” with Coach Hoop or strategy sessions such as “Identify Your Edge” give traders structured opportunities to sharpen skills and stay disciplined.
It’s like having a trading buddy who’s also been in the trenches, traded through the swings, and knows how to help you grow.
Other Discords talk a big game. Here’s why Topstep’s Discord is truly different:
Topstep’s Discord is more than a community. It’s a crew of futures traders dedicated to mastering discipline, driving growth every day, and building the habits that help you stick to your trading plan.
