Professional Pilot, Entrepreneur and Trade/Educator

David Story is the founder and CEO of Majestic Peak Trading LLC, an educational platform where he shares his proprietary trading strategies and insights. He also founded SoCal Air, an air charter company based in San Diego, California. In 1994, David launched his first business, KOOL Cleaning, a hotel carpet cleaning company in Europe. His passion for the financial markets took root in 2005 when he began trading futures, commodities, and options. Through a commitment to education, discipline, and patience, he became a successful, self-made trader.

David’s dedication to refining his trading methodology led to the creation of Majestic Peak Trading in 2008, which provides a trade management solution for futures traders through the Orion Trading Systems platform. His system emphasizes consistent, incremental gains while managing risk, focusing on stable returns to build substantial long-term growth. This foundation in Majestic Peak Trading eventually led to the creation of Pilot Traders, where David continues to empower new traders with much of the same education and strategies he developed at Majestic Peak.

Before his trading and business ventures, David served honorably in the United States Marine Corps from 1990 to 1994, including during Operation Restore Hope in Somalia. He resides in San Diego, California, with his wife of 26 years and their five children.
