Junior Funded Trader — Santa Ana, CA

Maverick Currencies is hiring a Junior Funded Trader based in Santa Ana, 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 Santa Ana, 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.

For traders working from Santa Ana, the local time zone math is straightforward:

Santa Ana isn't a financial capital — and that's actually fine. The funded-trader model works best for traders who can build a sustainable daily rhythm, and Santa Ana supports that.
