Compensation & Capital Disclosure

This is a performance-based contract role. Traders earn through a profit split on returns they generate — typically 60% to 90% depending on experience and performance tier. Estimated annual earnings range from $50,000 to $200,000+ for consistently profitable traders. Compensation is not a fixed salary or hourly wage; your earnings depend entirely on your trading results. Those who cannot trade profitably will not earn income from this role.

Common Questions

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.

Q: Is this remote?

A: Yes — every funded trader in the program works remotely. We hire US-based traders only, and you'll need a workable home setup with reliable internet, but otherwise you're free to work from wherever in the country you live.
