Remote Prop Trader — Aurora, IL

Maverick Currencies • Aurora, Illinois • Posted July 04, 2026

About the Role

Maverick Currencies is hiring a Remote Prop Trader based in Aurora, IL. 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 Aurora, IL

Aurora is a sensible base for remote trading. 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. You're not trying to outwork the market — you're matching your hours to where the liquidity actually is, then stepping away.

Illinois sits in Central time — Chicago, Aurora, Naperville, and Rockford traders work the same hours as the CME pit traders did historically. The London/New York overlap (the deepest liquidity window in forex) hits mid-morning local, which is as clean a trading schedule as the FX market offers.
