Forex Markets Trader — Apex, NC

Maverick Currencies is hiring a Forex Markets Trader based in Apex, NC. This is a remote, performance-based opportunity — we fund qualified US traders with up to $400,000 in firm capital and split profits 60% to 90% depending on performance tier.

Apex-based traders share one of the cleanest setups in the country. Eastern time aligns you directly with the New York open and the London close, so the high-volume hours of the FX day land in your morning instead of fighting your evening. What you bring is the discipline; the location quietly takes care of the rest.

North Carolina traders in Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro, and Durham work Eastern time. Charlotte in particular has a real finance industry presence (it's the second-largest banking center in the US), and the local independent trading scene reflects that.

• Trade Forex and Crypto markets on firm capital, not your own
• Execute rule-based systems with discipline and consistency
• Apply strict, position-level risk management on every trade
• Maintain a trade journal and review performance regularly
• Engage with coaches and the broader trader community

• Coachable: willing to follow a system before improvising on it
• Aligned with a performance-based pay model (no salary, no hourly)
• US resident with a workable home office setup
• Long-term mindset — focused on building a craft over years, not weeks

• Funded trading accounts with scaling paths up to $400,000
• Structured education on Forex/Crypto and risk management
• Coaching, performance feedback, and an active trader community
• Profit splits ranging from 60% to 90% based on performance tier

Pay is structured as a profit split on trading returns, not a salary. Profitable traders typically retain 60% to 90% of the gains they generate, with annual earnings landing between $50,000 and $200,000+ for those who maintain consistency. Traders who do not produce profitable results do not generate earnings under this model — it is a performance-based role in the most direct sense.

Q:
Can I keep my day job while I'm in the program?

A:
Yes — the program is structured to accommodate working professionals. Most successful candidates trade part-time during the qualification phase and transition into full-time trading once they're funded and consistent.

Q:
Do I get tax forms?

A:
Yes. Funded traders are paid as independent contractors and receive a 1099 at year-end. We don't withhold taxes; you handle your own quarterly estimates and self-employment filings, which is standard for contract trading roles.

Maverick Currencies, the Forex and Crypto division of Maverick Trading, has been part of the US prop trading landscape since 1997. We build careers, not gigs — that means structured training, real firm capital, and a coaching relationship that lasts longer than a single account evaluation.
