Empowering the World. One Trader at a Time.

Top-ranked proprietary trading firm, Maverick Currencies, is searching for entrepreneurially-minded, profit-driven people to be trained in the art and science of proprietary trading in its online crypto / foreign exchange trading division, Maverick Currencies. Work from home, learn from our experts, and trade on your own time.

Successful candidates will trade crypto and foreign currency pairs with the firm’s capital on behalf of the firm and reap the majority share of the profits. Engineers and architects are encouraged to apply.

The Crypto and Forex markets are open 23-1 / 2 hours a day, five days a week. This time horizon allows the firm to offer its traders flexible hours and the ability to start part-time and transition into full-time trading. Prop currency trading is a mentally engaging, challenging profession where diligence and consistency translate directly into financial rewards. In other words, this is truly meaningful work. The firm’s traders have the opportunity to practice their craft from anywhere in the world via high-speed internet. Enjoy the benefits of working from home or on the road.

You don’t need 10 years of experience at Wall Street to trade for us-our veteran traders, extensive support, and comprehensive training programs allow novices to become experts who trade serious capital. Architects and engineers are encouraged to apply, as we have many successful architects and engineers trading with us.

Started in 1997, Maverick Trading is one of the most experienced prop trading firms and is ranked as one of the top trading companies in the industry, accepting and funding experienced traders as well as teaching motivated people from all backgrounds how to become traders. The firm’s Maverick Currency Division has been actively trading the Currency markets since 2009. As a result of a long track record of success, the firm has the capital to back and fund its traders with meaningful amounts of capital.

Each trader starts live trading with a minimum of a $10,000 account ($500,000 in buying power) and keeps 70% to 80% of trading profits. As you gain experience and demonstrate consistent profitability you become eligible for greater amounts of the firm’s capital. Profitable traders are also eligible for Performance Bonuses.

Often the best candidates have a background in math, finance, and business, and any experience in trading or investing is a bonus. Engineers and architects have had great success trading with us as well. However, the most important characteristic for traders is a commitment to following the firm’s trading methodology and risk management guidelines that are proven to create long-term gains.

Our application process is multi-step and designed to educate you on prop trading, how we train, support and fund our traders, and how we pay out profits to you, as well as focus you for your interview where you can have any remaining questions answered and discuss with your recruiter why Maverick Currencies is a good fit for you.

When you complete the application process, you will be contacted by one of our experienced recruiters (who are also traders themselves) for a Suitability Interview.

If you’re interested in trading the markets at a professional level, whether part-time, full-time or in a transitional or supplementary income capacity, it pays to start with one of the best prop trading firms in the industry. We look forward to speaking with you and exploring if you’ll be the next great trader to join us.

Based on prior experience and possession of trading licenses or certificates, traders may incur costs in order to trade within the firm. All trading activity also requires fees for data feeds, commissions and trading spreads, which each trader will be responsible for. Once a trader establishes a track record of consistent profitability, the firm will cover these costs on behalf of the trader.
