What are the responsibilities and job description for the Remote Stock and Options Trader - Funded Account Profit Share position at Maverick Trading?
Benefits:
Maverick Trading is looking for disciplined, self-directed traders to trade firm capital in US stocks and equity options. You’ll manage a firm-funded account within set risk limits, under a performance-based independent contractor agreement. This is a trading role.

What You’ll Do:
You’ll be paid a performance-tiered share of the net trading profits you generate on firm capital. There’s no base pay. Full contract terms and risk parameters are reviewed during the interview process.

Maverick Trading is a proprietary trading firm founded in 1997 that trades stocks and equity options with its own capital.
