What are the responsibilities and job description for the FX Trader — Gadsden, AL position at Maverick Currencies?
Maverick Currencies is hiring a FX Trader based in Gadsden, AL. 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 Gadsden, AL
Based in Gadsden? The trading day lands at a workable hour. Central time puts the London/New York overlap — the highest-volume window in forex — squarely in mid-morning local, which is one of the cleanest schedules the market offers. It's a quietly efficient base for someone serious about treating trading as a profession.
Alabama traders sit in the Central time zone, which lines up neatly with the London close and the New York morning session — two of the highest-volume windows in the forex day. From Birmingham to Mobile to Huntsville, you're trading the most liquid hours of the FX market from a state with a low cost of living and a steady internet backbone.
What You'll Do
This is a performance-based contract role. Traders earn through a profit split on 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.
Common Questions
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.
Q: Can I trade nights or weekends?
A: Crypto markets run continuously, so there's optional after-hours flexibility there. Forex has weekday session windows. Most traders find that protecting one daily window of focused trading beats trying to trade around the clock.
