Pain & Profit Podcast
This podcast is for the traders, hustlers, founders, and creators who don’t run from pain… they use it. Hosted by a day trader who’s lived both sides of the chart — blown accounts, sleepless nights, and the thrill of green days — this is a raw conversation about what it really takes to win.
Each episode dives into the truth behind success:
- The losses no one posts.
- The strategies that actually work.
- Mindset, money, discipline, and risk.
- Real stories from entrepreneurs, traders, and builders who turned pain into profit.
No fluff. No fake motivation. Just real people, real lessons, and the blueprint to keep moving forward.
Welcome to the Pain & Profit Podcast — where we embrace both, and build anyway.

The Pain of Being a Trader: Stress, Self-Mastery & Mental Warfare
In this episode of the Pain & Profit Podcast, Tony and Mike dig into what it really means to live the life of a trader — not the highlight reel, but the grind that most people can’t stomach.
We start off breaking down this week’s market action from a retail trader’s perspective — our theories on how the market moves, how big money plays the game, and why the market isn’t your friend. We touch on market efficiency, fair value, and equilibrium, encouraging you to do your own research and form your own edge.
Then, we get into the heart of it: the mental and emotional warfare of being a trader. The exhaustion. The obsession. The pressure. The constant cycle of wins and losses — and what it takes to get back up after each hit.
We talk about developing the discipline and self-control needed to trade like a machine, not a gambler. About detaching from the P&L and learning to master yourself before you can master the market.
You’ll hear how we approach journaling, data tracking, and analyzing our own trades — not for clout, but to become more efficient and resilient. And we call out the social-media illusion of “Lambo traders” who glamorize trading without showing the stress that comes with maintaining that façade.
Because at the end of the day, trading isn’t about flexing profits — it’s about enduring pain, staying focused, and building the mental armor to survive long enough to become truly consistent.
If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re built for this — this episode will either make you quit… or make you unstoppable.
