Equity Swing Trader (Remote, Funded) — Atlanta, GA

Atlanta, GA:

Atlanta is the largest financial center in the Southeast — Inter Continental Exchange (ICE, which owns the NYSE) is headquartered here, Coca-Cola, Delta, and Home Depot are all major employers, and the financial-services labor market is among the deepest in the region. Eastern Time alignment with the NYSE is clean.

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.

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.

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
