Before you continue, please watch this short recruiting video to learn more about this opportunity:

Maverick Currencies is hiring a Funded Forex Trader based in Jackson, MS. 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 Jackson, MS

Jackson-based traders share one of the cleanest setups in the country. Central time puts the London/New York overlap — the highest-volume window in forex — squarely in mid-morning local, which is one of the cleanest schedules the market offers. What you bring is the discipline; the location quietly takes care of the rest.

Mississippi traders in Jackson, Gulfport, Southaven, and Hattiesburg work Central time. With low cost of living and Central time alignment to the London close, the state is a quietly efficient base for a funded trader.

What You'll Do

  • Trade Forex and Crypto markets on firm capital, not your own
  • Execute rule-based systems with discipline and consistency
  • Apply strict, position-level risk management on every trade
  • Maintain a trade journal and review performance regularly
  • Engage with coaches and the broader trader community

Who Thrives Here

  • Coachable: willing to follow a system before improvising on it
  • Aligned with a performance-based pay model (no salary, no hourly)
  • US resident with a workable home office setup
  • Long-term mindset — focused on building a craft over years, not weeks

What We Provide

  • Funded trading accounts with scaling paths up to $400,000
  • Structured education on Forex/Crypto and risk management
  • Coaching, performance feedback, and an active trader community
  • Profit splits ranging from 60% to 90% based on performance tier

Compensation & Capital Disclosure

Pay is structured as a profit split on trading returns, not a salary. Profitable traders typically retain 60% to 90% of the gains they generate, with annual earnings landing between $50,000 and $200,000+ for those who maintain consistency. Traders who do not produce profitable results do not generate earnings under this model — it is a performance-based role in the most direct sense.

Common Questions

Q: Do you hire internationally?

A: No. Maverick Currencies hires US-based traders only. This is a contractual and regulatory constraint, not a preference, and it applies to all of our funded trading programs.

Q: What's the minimum age?

A: You must be 18 or older to apply. Beyond that, age really isn't a factor — we've funded traders in their twenties, fifties, and beyond. What matters is your willingness to follow a system and respect risk.
