Josh

Before becoming a successful trader, Josh was a teacher working at schools in and around Cheltenham where he lives. He is an incredibly skilled, patient and systematic teacher that has taught many to master the STARTrading Method and to trade successfully and is why he is our Head Mentor. When not trading, Josh might be found at the gym, tinkering with his camper van or organising the next STARTrading camping trip.
