Funded Forex Trader — McKinney, TX
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 McKinney, TX. 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 McKinney, TX
Trading from McKinney has a structural advantage that's easy to underrate. 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. For traders building a long-term career, that kind of stable daily rhythm compounds.
Texas is Central time — Houston, San Antonio, Dallas, Austin, and Fort Worth traders work the same clock as Chicago. The London close and New York open hit mid-morning, the FX day's peak volume lands in a clean window, and Texas's cost of living means trading capital stretches further than in coastal hubs.
What You'll Do
- Run a defined trading system on Forex and Crypto using firm capital
- Stick to the rules — discretionary deviation is a primary failure mode we screen against
- Manage risk at the trade level (not just at the account level)
- Track results, learn from losses, and iterate on what's working
- Show up to coaching and contribute to community trade reviews
Who Thrives Here
- Discipline, patience, and an honest relationship with risk
- Comfortable being paid on profit-share rather than a fixed salary
- US-based with stable internet and a distraction-tolerant workspace
- Committed to trading as a profession, not a quick income source
What We Provide
- Firm capital up to $400,000 with a defined scaling path
- A structured trading program covering technical analysis, risk management, and trade execution
- One-on-one coaching plus ongoing performance review
- Profit splits from 60% to 90% tied to performance milestones
Compensation & Capital Disclosure
This role pays through profit-share, not salary. You trade firm capital and keep 60% to 90% of the returns you generate, based on your performance tier. Consistently profitable traders typically realize $50,000 to $200,000+ annually. The trade-off is explicit: there is no salary floor. If you are not profitable, you do not earn — the upside is that profitable traders are not capped.
Common Questions
Q: What's the most common reason traders fail out?
A: Discretionary deviation. Traders who follow the system get funded; traders who decide they know better than the system in the moment usually do not. We screen for coachability for that reason.
Q: What's the firm's track record?
A: Maverick Trading has been training and funding traders since 1997. We're not a new-wave 'prop firm' that markets challenges aggressively — we're a long-standing operation with a structured program and a track record that pre-dates most of the industry.
