What You'll Do
Trade Forex and Crypto markets on firm capital, not your own Execute rule-based systems with discipline and consistency Apply strict, position-level risk management on every trade Maintain a trade journal and review performance regularly Engage with coaches and the broader trader community Who Thrives Here Coachable: willing to follow a system before improvising on it Aligned with a performance-based pay model (no salary, no hourly) US resident with a workable home office setup Long-term mindset — focused on building a craft over years, not weeks What We Provide Funded trading accounts with scaling paths up to $400,000 Structured education on Forex/Crypto and risk management Coaching, performance feedback, and an active trader community Profit splits ranging from 60% to 90% based on performance tier Compensation & Capital Disclosure Pay is structured as a profit split on trading returns, not a salary. Profitable traders typically retain 60% to 90% of the gains they generate, with annual earnings landing between $50,000 and $200,000+ for those who maintain consistency. Traders who do not produce profitable results do not generate earnings under this model — it is a performance-based role in the most direct sense. Common Questions Q: Can I keep my day job while I'm in the program? A: Yes — the program is structured to accommodate working professionals. Most successful candidates trade part-time during the qualification phase and transition into full-time trading once they're funded and consistent. Q: Do I get tax forms? A: Yes. Funded traders are paid as independent contractors and receive a 1099 at year-end. We don't withhold taxes; you handle your own quarterly estimates and self-employment filings, which is standard for contract trading roles.
