Equity swing traders at Maverick hold positions for several days to several weeks. The role is suited to traders who think in trends and base structures rather than ticks, and who prefer a routine that doesn't require chair time at the open. Swing traders typically review overnight, plan in the morning, and check in at key points during the session.
Charlotte, NC:Charlotte is the second-largest banking center in the US by deposits. Bank of America is headquartered here, Wells Fargo runs its East Coast operations from the city, and Truist (formerly BBu
005CT/Sun Trust) is built around the metro. The financial-services labor market is among the strongest in the Southeast, and 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.
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.

- 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
