What is a remote futures trader?

A remote futures trader is a financial professional who buys and sells futures contracts from a location outside of a traditional trading floor, typically working from home or a remote office using online trading platforms. Futures traders speculate on the future price movements of commodities, currencies, indexes, or other assets in order to profit from price changes. Remote futures traders analyze markets, develop trading strategies, and manage risk independently, often relying on advanced software, high-speed internet, and real-time data feeds. This role requires strong analytical skills, self-discipline, and knowledge of financial markets.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Futures Trader, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Futures Trader, you need a strong understanding of financial markets, risk management, technical analysis, and often a relevant degree such as finance or economics. Proficiency with trading platforms (like MetaTrader or NinjaTrader), real-time data feeds, and sometimes relevant certifications such as Series 3 are common requirements. Discipline, emotional resilience, and the ability to make quick, informed decisions under pressure are standout soft skills. These abilities are crucial for navigating volatile markets, managing risk, and consistently making profitable trades in a remote setting.

Job description

Salary:

About GoCharting
GoCharting is a web-native charting and trading workflow platform with institutional-grade orderflow and DOM tools footprint/cluster charts, volume/market profile, cumulative delta, imbalance charts, DOM trading. We are the only platform that delivers these capabilities fully on the web. Differentiated as the leader in the professional orderflow niche. PE-acquired and funded in 2025, profitable, 2.1M+ registered traders globally, with a mandate to scale 10x over 4 years. US rebrand underway. US equities and US options data are being added, broadening scope beyond futures into multi-asset coverage.


The Role

This is the most important commercial hire GoCharting will make. The US professional futures and options trader is exactly who GoCharting is built for and we are the only web-native platform that delivers the institutional-grade orderflow, DOM, and footprint tools they currently get from desktop software like Sierra Chart, Bookmap, and ATAS. The product case makes itself. What it needs is someone to put it in front of every broker, prop firm, and exchange that touches that audience. Three broker integrations live; the prop trading firm market (Apex, TopStep, Earn2Trade, My Funded Futures and dozens of others) is entirely untapped; exchange relationships are nascent; the educator/community/media ecosystem has barely been touched. You will own all of it you ARE the US commercial function. A US agency provides interim BD/community coverage for ~6 months; you will absorb and replace it. You report directly to the COO with full autonomy over US commercial strategy.


What you'll do

Broker Partnerships

  • Expand the US broker integration roster beyond the current target AMP Futures, Dorman Trading, Phillip Capital, Wedbush Futures, EdgeClear, and others in US futures/options
  • Own the full partnership cycle: outreach, pitch, terms, technical handoff, go-live, ongoing relationship
  • Develop co-marketing with existing and new broker partners every integration should be a growth event, not just a technical connection

Prop Trading Firm Partnerships

  • Build the prop firm vertical from scratch target Apex Trader Funding, TopStep, Earn2Trade, My Funded Futures, comparable firms
  • Structure deals appropriate to each: white-label, platform integration, co-marketing, endorsed-tool status, or combinations
  • Own the commercial and relationship side; work with product/engineering on integration requirements

Exchange & Ecosystem Partnerships

  • Build exchange relationships beyond CME: CBOE, ICE, CBOT, others relevant to US futures/options
  • Develop co-marketing and visibility partnerships with US futures/options financial media, trading educators, communities futures.io, TastyTrade ecosystem, comparable channels
  • Own GoCharting's presence at US industry events: trading expos, broker-hosted events

Pipeline & Market Development

  • Own and maintain the US CRM pipeline every conversation logged, every follow-up tracked
  • Deliver regular US partnership reports to the COO: active deals, stage, expected close, blockers
  • Provide market intelligence: competitor moves, new broker entrants, ecosystem whitespace


What we're looking for

Must-haves:

  • 7+ years in BD, partnerships, or sales in the US futures/options trading ecosystem fintech, trading platform, futures broker, FCM, or financial-data company. General SaaS BD does not substitute.
  • Existing network in the US futures or options ecosystem brokers, prop firms, or exchanges can open doors on day one
  • Track record closing broker integrations, platform partnerships, or financial-data distribution deals with measurable outcomes
  • Deep knowledge of US futures and options market structure and the professional trader landscape
  • Exceptional relationship builder: US B2B, multi-stakeholder, long sales cycles with compliance and technical teams
  • US work authorisation; based in the United States

Nice-to-haves:

  • Existing relationships at US futures brokers: NinjaTrader Brokerage, AMP Futures, Dorman Trading, Phillip Capital, comparable
  • Prop trading firm network: Apex Trader Funding, TopStep, Earn2Trade, FTMO US, comparable
  • Experience with platform integration ecosystems: Rithmic, CQG, Trading Technologies APIs
  • Hands-on knowledge of orderflow tools, DOM trading, and footprint charts has used the tools you are selling
  • Prior experience at a charting platform, market data vendor, or trading software company
  • FIA membership or equivalent industry-association involvement
