Pros

Zero! All the money you are forced to put up, you can learn the same trading ideas on Options on Youtube

Cons

This place should be shut down by the Feds immediately! I'm not sure how they get away with this BS! They make you deposit 20% of your own capital, while they charge you commissions on trades and then if you happen to make a profit, they take a huge piece of that as well. Your better off trading and doing research on your own!

Maverick Trading Response

Thanks for the review and for your opinion. We understand everyone is able to anonymously write reviews and voice their thoughts. I just want to touch on a few points. Anyone can learn this off Youtube - We believe Youtube is a great resource for learning. However, trading is a very tough profession and many people that "know" the strategies fail to make profits trading. Maverick provides not only training and capital but risk management and regular trading reviews with senior traders to help increase profitability. We have been reviewed by the SEC and have received a no action letter which is the best thing the SEC gives. We also have yearly compliance reviews with our Broker/Dealer (Interactive Brokers). We have a top notch legal team that has advised us over the past 20 years in business to make sure we are running a legal trading firm. We DO NOT MARK UP OUR COMMISSIONS on our traders as we are not a BD. We only profit from our trader's trading activities when they profit.

Pros

Joined Maverick upon completion of graduate school and wanted the freedom and flexibility of very low expenses and ability to live anywhere and trade. Really great group of traders who will mentor you, fun group of guys. The firm doesn't take commission splits from trades that traders place, which keeps your best interest in mind (profitability). Firm only generates profits if your overall account is profitable with placing trades. Which is very hard to find these days! There are no limits on how much capital traders can trade with and your not limited to placing a certain amount of trades and can essentially trade your own strategy, time-frames etc. Just from the trade alerts the company sends out, one can easily generate substantial returns.

Cons

From the beginning Maverick has continually developed and progressed in terms of trader support and ease in obtaining capital. Bright futures ahead for Maverick and its traders!
