What I do at PropLumio

I research, write and update every page on this site myself: the prop firm reviews, the rankings and the guides in the learning center. I take prices and rules from each firm's official website and terms, and every page shows when its data was last checked.

The futures reviews on this site are based on each firm's published terms, not on my own accounts with those firms. When a review includes my own experience, it says so and shows the evidence. Read how I rate firms and how the site makes money.

Payouts I have received

I have traded funded accounts at forex prop firms myself. These are the payouts I have received, with the proof each firm issued. They add up to $1,429.63 over 4 payouts.

A few things to keep in mind. These accounts were simulated, as most prop firm funded accounts are, and the payouts were paid in real money. The amounts are small, and one trader's payouts don't show how quickly or reliably a firm pays everyone. Rules have changed since then, so check each firm's current terms. Reference numbers and personal details are hidden in the images.
