El Paso, TX:
El Paso is the largest Texas metro on Mountain Time, giving traders here a different schedule from the rest of the state - 7:30am market open instead of 8:30am. The metro's economy is built around international trade with Mexico, military (Fort Bliss), and healthcare. No state income tax.
What you’ll trade:US equities across the cap spectrum, with a bias toward names that have clean, tradable chart structure and a clear catalyst path over the next several weeks. Earnings exposure is allowed but managed - many swing traders here trim into earnings or hedge with options. Hard-to-borrow short positions require approval.
Risk framework:Swing trading carries overnight gap risk - earnings, news, and Asia-session reactions. Maverick swing traders cap exposure per name, cap correlated-sector exposure across the book, and run a portfolio-level drawdown limit. Position sizing is meaningfully smaller than what most retail swing traders run because we're protecting firm capital across a portfolio, not maximizing a single trade.
Why Maverick funds this role:Swing trading is structurally one of the most viable independent trading paths - the math of overnight returns and the lighter time demands fit more lifestyles than day trading. Maverick funds swing traders because the strategy scales well: firm capital can be deployed across more names, and the per-trader risk burden is more distributed than in intraday work.
- Traders who can sit through a position drawing down 1-2 sessions without panicking out
- People comfortable with rule-based entries and exits - not gut feel
- Traders who understand sector and market context, not just individual chart patterns
- Candidates who prefer a calmer daily rhythm than intraday work
