Los Angeles, CARemote / ContractPosted: 2026-05-22

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 Los Angeles, CA. 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 Los Angeles, CA

California traders catch the tail end of the Asian session, the full London session, and the New York open — all before most of the state has finished its morning coffee. The Pacific time zone gives FX traders the longest viable trading day in the country, and Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, and Sacramento all anchor regional trading communities worth tapping into.

Trading from Los Angeles has a quietly underrated benefit:

If you're serious about building a trading career from Los Angeles, the location is a non-issue. What matters is the discipline you bring to the morning trading window — and the local time zone makes that window land cleanly.

What You'll Do

  • Day trade Forex and Crypto markets using firm-provided capital
  • Follow and refine rule-based trading systems
  • Apply strict risk management on every trade
  • Review trades, track performance, and continuously improve
  • Participate in coaching sessions and the trader community

Who Thrives Here

  • Disciplined, coachable, and committed to a rule-based approach
  • Comfortable with performance-based (not salaried) compensation
  • US-based, reliable internet and a workable trading environment
  • Serious about building trading as a long-term professional craft

What We Provide

  • Funded trading accounts with scaling paths up to $400,000
  • Structured education on Forex/Crypto and risk management
  • Coaching, performance feedback, and an active trader community
  • Profit splits ranging from 60% to 90% based on performance tier

Compensation & Capital Disclosure

This is a performance-based contract role. Traders earn through a profit split on trading returns they generate — typically 60% to 90% depending on experience and performance tier. Estimated annual earnings range from $50,000 to $200,000+ for consistently profitable traders. Compensation is not a fixed salary or hourly wage; your earnings depend entirely on your trading results. Those who cannot trade profitably will not earn income from this role.
