Options Income Trader (Remote, Funded) Nashville, TN

Location Nashville, TN: Nashville has become one of the fastest-growing financial centers in the Southeast — HCA Healthcare is headquartered here, AllianceBernstein relocated its headquarters from New York to Nashville in 2020, and a wave of asset managers have followed. Central Time alignment with US markets is clean, and Tennessee has no state income tax. What You'll Trade Credit spreads on liquid US equities and ETFs, cash‑secured puts on names the trader would be willing to own, and covered calls on equity positions held in the firm's book. Trades are sized based on max‑loss, not premium collected. Underlyings must clear liquidity screens — wide bid‑ask spreads are an automatic disqualifier. Risk Framework Premium‑selling looks profitable until it isn’t. Maverick's risk framework caps max loss per spread, total notional exposure, and beta‑weighted portfolio delta. Tail‑risk events (8 sigma moves) are anticipated, not denied — we expect a few rough months a year and size so they don't end careers. Why Maverick Funds This Role Premium‑selling done right is one of the most consistent income strategies in markets — and one of the easiest to ruin with bad sizing. Maverick built this role around traders who already think in probabilities and want firm capital deployed against a strategy that pays steady cash flow when risk is managed. The 65-90% profit split applies to net P&L after the inevitable rough months. Ideal Candidate Traders who understand 'probability of profit' is not the same as 'expected return', people who can follow mechanical management rules without overriding them mid‑trade, candidates with a quantitative mindset — comfortable thinking in distributions, and traders who don’t need every position to win to feel like the strategy is working. #J-18808-Ljbffr
