Proprietary Trader Cary, NC

Proprietary Trader Opportunity

Maverick Currencies is hiring a Proprietary Trader based in Cary, NC. 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 Cary, NC

Trading from Cary has a structural advantage that's easy to underrate. Eastern time aligns you directly with the New York open and the London close, so the high-volume hours of the FX day land in your morning instead of fighting your evening. For traders building a long-term career, that kind of stable daily rhythm compounds.

North Carolina traders in Charlotte, Raleigh, Greensboro, and Durham work Eastern time. Charlotte in particular has a real finance industry presence (it's the second-largest banking center in the US), and the local independent trading scene reflects that.

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.
