Prop Trader — Lyndhurst, NJ (Remote)
Lyndhurst, NJ
Maverick Trading
Remote prop trading position in Lyndhurst, NJ. Trade equities and options with our capital — no monthly subscriptions, no challenge fees, no resets.
Maverick Trading is hiring a fully remote Equity & Options Trader open to applicants in Lyndhurst, NJ. We are a proprietary trading firm with 25+ years of experience training and funding professional traders, and we allocate firm capital to disciplined candidates who can demonstrate consistency and risk discipline.
This is not a challenge account. Not a demo evaluation. We provide structured capital allocation for traders who want a professional path to scaling capital.
Why We Trade Options
Options allow traders to define risk, hedge exposures, and structure trades beyond simple directional stock positions. Maverick is one of the few proprietary trading firms that actively trades options as a core part of its trading approach.
Trading from Northeast
The Northeast is the historic core of US capital markets — the NYSE, NASDAQ, and most of Wall Street's major firms are within a single time zone of you, which means tight price-discovery latency and a rich local trading community.
Local time zone: Eastern Time (ET). Trade US market hours from your local time zone — the NYSE opens at 9:30am local.
The Northeast Edge
New Jersey is part of the broader New York financial-services labor market — major bank and asset-management back-office operations are concentrated in northern New Jersey, and the state has historical Bell Labs and Wall Street back-office presence. Eastern Time alignment.
