Most Wall Street tours are led by history buffs with a guidebook. This one is led by a professional proprietary trader — someone who trades firm capital, not client money — whose family spent 43 years on the NYSE trading floor. You'll hear the stories that don't make it into textbooks. 75 minutes. No script.

YOUR GUIDE
An Insider's View of Wall Street
Not someone who read about the NYSE. Dana is a proprietary trader — meaning she trades firm capital using her own strategies, not a broker managing client accounts. Her family spent 40 years on the NYSE trading floor before her, and she still actively trades today. That combination of lived floor history and active market experience is what makes this tour unlike anything else in New York. You'll hear what was really at stake, what the floor actually sounded like, and what Wall Street looks like to someone who's lived it from the inside.
