LEELOO

Yes. Leeloo Trading is a legitimate US-based futures trading platform founded in 2019 in Montana by CEO Cristina Cirnaru. The firm operates on Rithmic infrastructure — one of the most trusted data providers in the futures industry — and maintains a publicly accessible leaderboard and payout list of verified trader distributions. Payouts are processed via Rise Works. Leeloo describes its model as performance-based trading and contests, which differs slightly from traditional prop firm structures — traders should read the payout disclosure on the official website before purchasing.

Yes — swing trading is one of Leeloo's most prominent differentiators. Traders may hold up to 3 micro contracts overnight without any prior permission. For standard mini contracts or more than 3 micros, admin approval is required and the account must have sufficient profit to cover the maintenance margin. Weekend holding follows the same rules. Positions must be flat 15 minutes before the daily market close unless admin permission has been granted. This makes Leeloo one of the very few futures prop firms that genuinely accommodates part-time traders and position-style strategies.

After hitting the profit target in a minimum of 10 active US trading days without breaching the trailing drawdown, traders qualify for a Performance Account. The PA requires a separate fee of $88 per month or a one-time $250 fee. The one-time fee requires trading a minimum of 12 days per calendar month — deliberately minimal trading to keep the account active is not permitted. Payouts from the PA are distributed as performance-based contest payouts via Rise Works at a 90% profit split. Leeloo Express provides a full refund of the original evaluation subscription fee when a trader qualifies for a PA.

The 30% rule states that daily profits in a Performance Account should not exceed 30% of the net profit measured from the initial starting balance. For example, if a trader has grown their PA from $50,000 to $53,000 (net $3,000 profit), no single trading day's profit should exceed $900. This rule promotes consistent trading growth and discourages single large-bet days. Traders whose daily profits regularly exceed 30% may face review. The rule does not apply during the evaluation phase — only on Performance Accounts after qualifying.

Leeloo Trading processes payouts as performance-based contest distributions — not traditional profit-share withdrawals. Traders submit payout requests through the Performance Account portal and distributions are processed via Rise Works. The profit split is 90% to the trader. Leeloo maintains a public leaderboard and payout list on its official website showing verified trader distributions from across its global community. Traders from 16+ countries including the US, UK, Germany, France, Canada, Brazil, Mexico, and Australia have received verified payouts. The Leeloo Express program refunds the full evaluation subscription fee when a trader first qualifies for a PA.
