Forex Markets Trader — Erie, PA
Before you continue, please watch this short recruiting video to learn more about this opportunity:
Maverick Currencies is hiring a Forex Markets Trader based in Erie, PA. 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.
Why Erie, PA
If you're trading from Erie, your local clock does most of the scheduling work for you. 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. Building a sustainable trading routine is half the battle for funded traders, and Erie's schedule supports that.
Pennsylvania traders in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Allentown, and Erie work Eastern time. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh both have meaningful regional finance industries, and the New York open lines up cleanly with the start of the workday.
What You'll Do
- Day trade Forex and Crypto markets using firm-provided capital
- Follow and refine rule-based trading systems
- Apply strict risk management on every trade
- Review trades, track performance, and continuously improve
- Participate in coaching sessions and the trader community
Who Thrives Here
- Discipline and consistency matter more here than trading experience
- Comfortable with profit-share compensation — no salary, no hourly
- US-based with reliable internet and a quiet space to trade
- Treating trading as a career, not a hobby or side project
What We Provide
- Funded accounts with scaling milestones up to $400,000
- A structured education program covering systems, psychology, and risk management
- Coaching, peer review, and a community of funded traders
- 60% to 90% profit splits depending on your performance tier
Compensation & Capital Disclosure
Maverick Currencies operates on a performance-share model. Traders are paid a percentage of the profits they generate trading the firm's capital — 60% to 90% depending on tier. Realistic annual earnings for profitable traders range from $50,000 to $200,000+. There is no base salary, no hourly rate, and no guaranteed income; your compensation is a function of your trading results.
Common Questions
Q: What time zone do I need to trade in?
A: Any US time zone works. The program is built around the London/New York overlap, but Pacific, Mountain, Central, and Eastern traders all run profitable accounts. Your local clock changes the shape of your day, not the viability of trading.
Q: How long does it take to get funded?
A: It varies. Traders who follow the curriculum and stay disciplined often move into a funded account within a few months of starting the evaluation. Traders who skip the rules or trade emotionally take longer — or never get funded.
