Maverick Currencies is hiring a Forex & Crypto Trader based in San Jose, Costa Rica. This is a remote, performance-based opportunity — we fund qualified traders with up to $400,000 in firm capital and split profits 60% to 90% depending on performance tier.

Trading from San Jose, Costa Rica

The US Eastern schedule 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 rather than fighting your evening.

What You'll Do

  • Trade Forex and Crypto markets on firm capital, not your own
  • Execute rule-based systems with discipline and consistency
  • Apply strict, position-level risk management on every trade
  • Maintain a trade journal and review performance regularly
  • Engage with coaches and the broader trader community

Who Thrives Here

  • Coachable: willing to follow a system before improvising on it
  • Aligned with a performance-based pay model (no salary, no hourly)
  • US resident with a workable home office setup
  • Long-term mindset — focused on building a craft over years, not weeks

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

Pay is structured as a profit split on trading returns, not a salary. Profitable traders typically retain 60% to 90% of the gains they generate, with annual earnings landing between $50,000 and $200,000+ for those who maintain consistency. Traders who do not produce profitable results do not generate earnings under this model — it is a performance-based role in the most direct sense.

Common Questions

Q: Are there sign-up bonuses or guaranteed earnings?

A: No. We don't offer sign-on bonuses, guaranteed minimums, or anything that resembles a salary floor. The model is honest about that — compensation is entirely tied to your trading results.

Q: Is this work-from-home or hybrid?

A: It's fully remote. There is no office to come into, no required in-person time, and no geographic limits beyond being US-based. Plenty of our traders have never met the team in person — the work doesn't require it.
