Response from Maverick Trading· May 30, 2026
Thanks, David — "everything is clear" is exactly what we aim for. And hearing we're the best choice for profitable traders? That's the kind of feedback we love. Appreciate you taking the time to share. All the best, The Maverick Trading Team
Good experience

Thanks for the kind words — glad you had a good experience with us. We're always happy to hear when traders are satisfied. If there's anything specific that stood out or any way we could make things even better, we'd love to hear it. All the best, The Maverick Trading Team
Great experience with Maverick Trading for several years now. They were upfront with the process and fees to get started and held up their end of the deal at every step. Their education is top notch - don't be put off by the price. You'll lose more trying to learn as you go with real money than what it costs to get comprehensive training from successful veteran traders. I highly recommend this prop firm to anyone who's interested in trading for part time/full time income.

Hello Nolan, Thank you very much for taking the time to leave us this fantastic 5-star review! It is especially rewarding to receive this feedback right as you transition into the Capital-Sharing Program. We know the qualification phase takes serious commitment and discipline, and your success is a testament to the structured process you embraced. We are truly excited to partner with you as you begin trading firm capital. Congratulations on this major milestone, and we look forward to supporting your long-term success with the firm. All the best, The Maverick Trading Team
Solo trader learning what I can in my free time over the years Maverick helped show me a lot of different things to consider in assessing the market. The randomness that seemed to haunt my demo account trades over the years started to get clearer, the more I applied what I learned into my toolbox. Maverick offers a lot of material, tons of videos, and sound advice from seasoned professionals. As I’m keen on testing everything I learn, I have more notes than time spent building what now is starting to make decent returns above any of my previous strategies. And there is more to go! I’m much less confused, and much more confident on my approach to assessing, testing, journaling, analyzing, and building a profitable system. Look forward to continuing my journey into the future and glad I made the choice with Maverick.

Hello Matthew, Thank you for taking the time to share your journey from being a solo trader dealing with market randomness to developing a profitable system here at Maverick. It’s genuinely rewarding to hear that the Maverick material, videos, and professional advice helped you cut through the confusion and bring clarity to your trading. That feeling you described—where the randomness starts to fade as you apply what you learn—is exactly what we aim for. We appreciate that you're focused on testing everything and building out your notes. That methodical approach (assessing, testing, journaling, and analyzing) is the true path to consistent results, and we're pleased it’s now generating decent returns for you. We are glad you chose Maverick and look forward to supporting you as you continue this successful journey. All the best, The Maverick Trading Team
This is a MUCH deserved positive review. I joined in June 2023 and waited over 2 years before sharing my experience. I wanted to wait until I reached the top before deciding how legitimate they are. I’ve had very nice payouts as promised, but only because I put in the work! I wouldn’t listen to most of the negative reviews on here because Trading is not meant to be easy that’s why most people fail. This company wants committed traders and will back you up with significant amounts of money if you put in the work. Their on-boarding fees etc are very fair and yes there are joining fees because it takes a tonne of time, effort, and energy to help their traders succeed and nobody will just give money to a stranger. If you’re serious, you will pay the fee. You always get what you pay for, and there’s a tonne of free content by them on YouTube. You will get a feel about what they’re about. Being in business for almost 30 years tells me what I need to know about legitimacy and durability as a firm Maverick Trading has been around for a long time and for good reason. If you’re an options trader wanting to become better at it, then look no further. The ONLY thing I wish I knew is that the amounts for level advancement are not static, but it depends on your risk management, your profits, your strategy, the amount you leave in the account, etc… I don’t think this would have affected my decision to join at all, but it’s good to know. Overall I’m happy with my level advancements. There are still opportunities to grow , much faster than someone can do with their own money, and Maverick DOES have the money to help you scale Advice to new people considering joining the firm: drop the ego, show up with a good attitude, have faith, take full responsibility for your actions, and put in the work. Good things will come and You will thank yourself later

Hello Jas, Thank you for sharing your experience and this great review! Your dedication shines through, sticking with us for over two years until you hit the top level—Congratulations on this achievement! We're happy to hear that you’ve found the payouts to be exactly as promised. That’s the whole point of our partnership, and we're thrilled you’re seeing those rewards because you absolutely put in the work. Your advice to new traders is spot-on, especially the part about dropping the ego. We couldn't agree more that trading isn't easy, which is why most people quit. But for those like you who are committed and meet the requirements, the Capital-Sharing Partnership is the right structure. We also really appreciate you clarifying the fairness of the onboarding fees. It simply takes massive effort and resources to get traders ready for our program, and as you said, we don't just hand money to strangers! Thanks again for being a vital, long-term partner and a fantastic example to everyone coming through the program. We are excited to see your continued success here at Maverick! All the best, The Maverick Trading Team
I'm so glad to join Maverick Trading, where I have learnt a lot of professional practical trading techniques that I cannot learn from the college before. From the useful training course in Maverick, it is worth learning the secret of success in trading skills, ranging from position sizing, risk reward ratio and option values. It is so important to do more demo paper trades before entering the real live trading market. I feel like I am well prepared and well trained by my mentor, Joe in Maverick. Very grateful and happy!

Hello Jack, Thank you so much for taking the time to share this wonderful review! It means the world to us.

Hearing that the training has provided that "secret of success" is the highest compliment we can receive!

We're grateful to have you with us and look forward to your continued success! All the best, The Maverick Trading Team
Joining Maverick Trading was the single best decision I ever made regarding my trading career. They specialize in options trading, which is the best way to trade in my opinion. The training curriculum is very in depth and thorough. It's a long process to get through all of the material, but it is worth every minute. You can tell the management there is serious about trading and love what they do. It shows with their presentations and coaching sessions. Another reason I joined Maverick was to be part of a family that trades the market for a living. Trading can be a lonely career and having Maverick there helps you out a lot in that you can talk to other traders, exchange ideas and most importantly learn! Besides the in depth training material, the personal touch of having access to very knowledgeable coaches is the cherry on top. It is very nice to speak to a very experienced traders and learn more about trading then you can even imagine. This is a very cool aspect to Maverick. Mavericks top-down approach to trading is very nice as well. They use basket trading, which was knew to me, but have found it to be a good fit for me and my personality. A great approach to trading the markets. There are capital requirements you must make to join Maverick in order to trade with their capital, but it is worth every penny, especially after you have gone through their training program. I cannot recommend Maverick Trading enough. If you enjoy trading options, then Maverick is the best place for you. I know I am very happy to be part of Maverick family!

Rating: 5 stars Maverick Trading has delivered exactly what they promised — a structured, professional pathway to becoming a consistently profitable trader. Before joining, my trading was inconsistent, with risk levels and execution discipline varying from trade to trade. After completing the program, my trade plan compliance rate is near perfect, my average loss size has been reduced by over a third, and my R:R structure has improved to consistently meet or exceed the 2:1 target. Now trading live capital, I can say with confidence that the training process has prepared me both technically and mentally for the demands of professional trading. This is not a “get rich quick” program — it’s a high-standard environment where results come from following a proven process. Highly recommended for traders serious about making this a career, not just a hobby.
