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.

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.

This company is not good for scalping…

This company is not good for scalping at all, the commissions are horrendous, I didn't listen to the other reviews and tried them anyway. Also the "slipage" is like nothing i've seen, Iv been trading a long time. The leverage is so low (on US30) that it would have taken me 3x as long to get to the goal as with other Prop Firms. The trade that took me out.. with 'max daily', I knew that I needed to be careful. And had over 5 point Break even that was already in profit at the point of this move, and it "slipped" passed and ended the trade at over 1600 in the negative! I truly wanted them to be a good place to park my trading. That is why I went with them anyway, read all the reviews! Try one of the other top Prop firms if you are interested in trading this way.

I found E8 the worst

I found E8 the worst firm on the market. Specially once you failed don’t go back again. They profiles you and make sure you will fail. I recommend don’t waste your money this scum firm. Myforexfunds are much better firm Below I sent this message to E8 customer service Every time I close my trade you takeoff 25% of my winnings not including commissions and spread charges. E8 not trustworthy now I know people saying about you Trustpilot is true After I sent this message they suspend my account. Simply by sending this message We have closed your account due to direct threats against us. E8 they are like dictators they closed my account even before I failed the test.

Ridiculous SWAP Rate

E8 swap rate is huge, on WTI (US Oil) short per lot $306 and long per lot $116. They did not mention this rate on their website yet. Really bad experience on this option till now. ======================================= Update: They charge 3days swap on Wednesday, where most of the broker charge on Friday closed. And compared to other prop firm E8 Swap is completely disappoint me, below a compare rate of swap FTMO: Long : 0 Short: -0.10 3day swap on Friday ---------------------------------------- E8: Long : -38.52 Short: -102 3day swap on Wednesday ------------------------------------------ My regular trading broker is ICMarkets & Exness, they are both similar to FTMO. Stop this bu***hit swap E8 if you want to be a good top rated Prop Firm. ------------------------------------------------- Update your Reply: I am with FTMO and trade regular account on ICMarkets & Exness. I checked both of them and they all are charge 3x swap on Friday close. And their swap rate are above i mentioned. How could you say that this ridiculous swap are market standard??? Check with some other Prop firm swap yourself, just don't keep type here.......

Terrible Dishonest company BUYER BEWARE

This company does everything it can to get legitimate reviews taken down and deleted. Any time anyone says their spreads are high they call fowl, but it is absolutely the truth, take a look at their instagram page, it is filled with people commenting about how bad their spreads and commissions are. Also, the other day I read a review on here about how the company deleted someone's account because they left an honest poor review about the spreads and the company claimed that if you leave "false" reviews they will cancel your account with them, and according to e8 any negative review, especially regarding spreads and commissions is "false". BUYER BEWARE Their commissions and spreads are SUPER high, wish I hadn't bought the account now. I did the free trial, but I guess I did my math wrong, and their profit target is so low in the trial that I hit the target before I knew it and they closed my account, so I didn't even have sufficient time to review conditions, that's partly my fault for not being more thorough, but all that would have accomplished was me making sure I didn't use this company, it would not have changed my mind about the extremely high commission and spread costs.
