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

Maverick Currencies, a proprietary trading firm founded in 1997, is looking for people in and around Lake Charles, LA who want to build a serious trading career without packing up for New York or Chicago. You can do this work from your own home, on your own schedule, right here in southwest Louisiana.

What the role involves

As a Forex & Crypto Trader, you'll learn to analyze currency and crypto markets, develop a trading approach, and execute trades using a funded account structure that can scale up to $400,000. Maverick Currencies provides training and structured resources to help you get there, but once you're active, you operate independently. We don't direct or supervise your day-to-day trading decisions; the results you produce are your own.

No experience required

This position is genuinely entry-friendly. Many traders start with zero background in finance. Training is built to take you from the basics through live trading practices at a pace that fits your life.

How you're paid

This is a 1099 independent contractor role, not a salaried or hourly position. Compensation comes through a profit split ranging from 65% to 90%, and it is entirely performance-based. Profits are never guaranteed, and if you are not trading profitably, this role produces no income. We're upfront about that because we'd rather you go in with realistic expectations than empty promises.

Why Lake Charles works in your favor

You don't need a finance-hub zip code or a finance-hub cost of living to build real trading income. Working from Lake Charles means your expenses stay reasonable while your upside is tied to your own skill and discipline, not your location. There's no relocation required and no reason to wait for an opportunity that only exists somewhere else.

Schedule

Hours are flexible. You decide when you study, practice, and trade, fitting the work around existing jobs, family, or school.

If you're in Lake Charles and ready to put in the work to learn a real skill, Maverick Currencies wants to hear from you.
