Trading floor · est. by Michael Spinosa

Trading is mental athleticism.

Raw, credentialed mentorship from a former Wall Street analyst and advisor. Twelve years of markets, a real trading floor, and the parts of this game nobody else teaches — risk, mechanics, and the mind that runs them.

What Mike actually teaches

Seven disciplines. One trader.

Most rooms teach patterns. This one teaches the plumbing under the patterns and the nervous system running the trader. Explore each discipline.

Discipline 01

Risk & risk aversion

Position sizing is the one edge you fully control. Every session starts with a number you can lose, and a plan for what happens when you do.

  • Position sizing
  • Scaling in & out
  • Opportunity cost
  • R-multiples
  • Drawdown rules
  • Max loss per day

The risk life

Scared money don’t make money.

Everything that matters requires risk. The payoff isn’t the cars — it’s owning one hundred percent of your time. Mike left a Wall Street career because the risk-reward on offer wasn’t worth a life. This room exists so you can make that trade with your eyes open.

Who is teaching you

Analyst. Advisor. Then a trader who wanted his time back.

Mike started as a small- and micro-cap equity analyst, where he learned there is zero correlation between fundamentals and price in the short term. As an investment advisor he watched stocks run 200–500% and asked why. The answer — technicals tell you when, fundamentals tell you what — became the backbone of everything he teaches.

He saw technology, margin compression and zero commissions coming for the advisory business, and left the rat race for the risk-reward he actually wanted: being his own boss, on his own floor.
