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.

Trading from Southern Africa

Southern Africa trades US markets in your afternoon and evening — a useful overlap that pairs a full local workday with a focused US trading session.

Local time zone: SAST (UTC+2). US markets open in your evening — the NYSE bell rings at 4:30pm SAST, ideal for traders who prefer a late-day routine.

What You'll Do

  • Trade equities and options within defined risk parameters
  • Follow a structured, rules-based risk management approach
  • Build consistency and scale capital based on performance

Why 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.

What We Offer

  • Trade firm capital
  • Performance-based scaling
  • Profit split: 65%–90%
  • Remote flexibility

What We're Looking For

  • Trading experience preferred (equities and/or options)
  • Strong risk discipline and consistency mindset
  • Independent decision-making and accountability
