Trading Rules

News trading is permitted without restrictions (E8 warns about slippage on tier-1 releases).

Trading hours are 5:00 PM to 3:10 PM CT. Positions are closed automatically at 3:10 PM CT every day; overnight and weekend holding is not permitted.

Bots, AI tools and semi- or fully automated trading are not permitted, nor is HFT (more than 300 trades per day).

Hedging across accounts is not permitted, including your own. Accounts use netting — an opposite order closes the current position.

Trade copying is permitted only between your own accounts.

At least 50% of profit must come from trades held 10 seconds or longer.

Trade the front-month contract; positions within 2% of the price limit, all-or-nothing strategies and splitting a winning position to get around the best-day rule are not permitted.

Inactivity: the account is closed after 7 days without at least one closed trade.

Additional Rules

A Truly Remarkable Experience with E8…

A Truly Remarkable Experience with E8 Funding My journey with E8 Funding has been nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, their customer service team demonstrated a high level of professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care. Throughout both Phase 1 and Phase 2 of the evaluation process, everything went smoothly without a single issue. Upon reaching the funded stage, I was able to trade efficiently and generate consistent profits. What impressed me the most was how seamless and transparent the entire process was—from evaluation to withdrawal. When it came time to withdraw my profits, the procedure was handled swiftly and without complications. Within just three business days, all necessary reviews and processes were completed, and the funds were successfully deposited into my account. In an industry where reliability and support can make all the difference, E8 Funding stands out as a trustworthy and professional prop firm. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any trader seeking a smooth and rewarding trading experience.

I’ve had a great experience with E8…

I’ve had a great experience with E8 Markets so far. Their platform is clear and professional, and I really appreciate the fast and friendly support. A special thank you to Dayle from the customer team, who was extremely helpful in answering my questions about news trading rules. It’s reassuring to work with a prop firm that values transparency and trader support. Looking forward to continuing with them!
