Forex Trader - Calgary, Canada

Maverick Currencies is hiring a Proprietary FX Trader based in Calgary, Canada. 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 Calgary, Canada

The US Mountain schedule gives you a compressed, productive trading day: the London close at the start of your morning, the New York open shortly after, and the US session wrapping by early afternoon.

What You'll Do

• Run a defined trading system on Forex and Crypto using firm capital

• Stick to the rules — discretionary deviation is a primary failure mode we screen against

• Manage risk at the trade level (not just at the account level)

• Track results, learn from losses, and iterate on what's working

• Show up to coaching and contribute to community trade reviews

Who Thrives Here

• Discipline, patience, and an honest relationship with risk

• Comfortable being paid on profit-share rather than a fixed salary

• US-based with stable internet and a distraction-tolerant workspace

• Committed to trading as a profession, not a quick income source

What We Provide

• Firm capital up to $400,000 with a defined scaling path

• A structured trading program covering technical analysis, risk management, and trade execution

• One-on-one coaching plus ongoing performance review

• Profit splits from 60% to 90% tied to performance milestones

Compensation & Capital Disclosure

This role pays through profit-share, not salary. You trade firm capital and keep 60% to 90% of the returns you generate, based on your performance tier. Consistently profitable traders typically realize $50,000 to $200,000+ annually. The trade-off is explicit: there is no salary floor. If you are not profitable, you do not earn — the upside is that profitable traders are not capped.

Common Questions

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.

Q: What happens if I have a losing month?

A: Losing months happen to every trader, including the consistently profitable ones. Within the firm's risk framework you have room to recover; outside of it (i.e., if you blow risk rules) the account is paused for review. Discipline is what preserves the relationship.
