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

Maverick Currencies is hiring a Forex & Metals Trader based in Meridian, ID. 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 Meridian, ID

For traders living in Meridian, the math works in your favor. The Mountain time zone gives you a compressed and productive trading day — London close at the start of the morning, the New York open shortly after, and the US session wrapping by early afternoon. The result: peak FX volume concentrates into the first few hours of your workday, so a disciplined morning routine matters more than long screen time.

Idaho's Mountain time zone position is a quiet advantage for FX traders. Boise, Meridian, Nampa, and Idaho Falls all catch the London close at the start of the workday and finish the US session well before the evening.

What You'll Do

  • Trade Forex and Crypto markets with firm capital on a defined system
  • Follow risk rules precisely — they are not optional, they are the model
  • Document trades, journal your decisions, and review at scheduled intervals
  • Refine your edge through repetition rather than chasing new systems
  • Participate in coaching and the live trader community

Who Thrives Here

  • Coachable and consistent — discipline beats brilliance in this model
  • OK with profit-share-only compensation (no base, no minimums)
  • US-based, with reliable internet and an environment you can focus in
  • Looking at trading as a multi-year career, not a short-term try

What We Provide

  • Funded trading accounts that scale to $400,000 based on results
  • A structured curriculum focused on rule-based execution and risk control
  • Direct mentorship, weekly performance feedback, and a peer trader network
  • Tiered profit splits — 60% at entry, up to 90% at the top performance tiers

Compensation & Capital Disclosure

Compensation here is performance-driven. You keep a profit split on the trading returns you generate — 60% to 90% based on your experience and performance tier. Consistent profitable traders typically earn between $50,000 and $200,000 annually, though this is not a salary; if you do not trade profitably, you do not earn from this role. We are direct about that because it matters.

Common Questions

Q: Is this remote?

A: Yes — every funded trader in the program works remotely. We hire US-based traders only, and you'll need a workable home setup with reliable internet, but otherwise you're free to work from wherever in the country you live.

Q: Can I scale faster than the milestone path?

A: The scaling milestones exist to protect both you and the firm's capital. Skipping them isn't really on the table — but the milestones themselves move quickly for traders who are genuinely consistent. The system rewards results, just on a sensible timeline.
