Bro, I'm Going Rogue: Guy Gentile Publishes The Memoir Of A Wall Street Trader Who Wore A Wire For The FBI

A dramatized memoir of one of the strangest careers in modern markets: an eleven-year-old with a paper route in Mount Vernon, New York, three brokerage firms, an FBI wire, a federal indictment thrown out on constitutional grounds, and a fight that is still in the courts.

Dubai, United Arab Emirates — August 31, 2026

Professional day trader and brokerage founder Guy Gentile has published Bro, I'm Going Rogue: Wall Street, the FBI, and the Trader They Couldn't Break, a first-person memoir available now on Amazon in paperback and Kindle at a.co/d/02BxzQum.

The book opens on a paper route in Mount Vernon, New York, that Gentile ran at eleven years old, and follows him into the trading business he would spend the next three decades building: DAS Trader, SpeedTrader, and SureTrader. Then it turns. After a 2012 arrest, Gentile spent years cooperating with the FBI under DOJ-supervised arrangements — the period that gave the book its title and its central question: what happens to a man who becomes an instrument of the government he is also fighting?

"I was the guy on both sides of the glass," Gentile said. "I built the firms, I broke the rules, I wore the wire, and then I sat in the courtroom while people who had never traded a share in their lives explained what I was. I wrote the whole thing down — including the parts that make me look bad — because sanitized versions of this story have already been written by other people."

The memoir covers the New Jersey criminal indictment returned March 23, 2016 and dismissed January 30, 2017 on statute-of-limitations grounds, the separate SEC civil action filed March 22, 2021 that produced a Miami civil liability verdict July 2, 2024 and final judgment October 17, 2025, and the day-to-day mechanics of running retail brokerages through the most volatile stretch in the industry's modern history — order flow, offshore regulation, margin, and the arrival of zero-commission trading.

Bro, I'm Going Rogue is a dramatized memoir. Scenes are composited and names other than Gentile's are changed, but the underlying record — filings, transcripts, dockets, and dates — is real and publicly available. The book contains no trade recommendations, no performance claims, and nothing in it should be read as investment or legal advice.

Gentile is also the author of The Stock Operator, Rogue Alpha, The Rogue Code, AI Trading Edge, and The Last Human Trader.
