Review for e8

Review

E8 has a strong prop firm reputation and I did not see that reputation lower on it's futures side. The BIG advantage that E8 has over all the other major prop firms is that the evaluation is a one day pass, with no daily loss limit. The funded account does have a consistency rule, a daily loss limit, and 80% payout split, so they do rank pretty low on the funded account totem poll and these accounts are a bit on the expensive side. If you don't mind those rules but need something to degen news trade that isn't Apex, these accounts would be the ones to buy, especially if you can catch them on sale. IF not, the only time I would be buying these is if you're maxed out on account allocation on the top propfirms and are just looking for more account capital.

Firm seems to have been in the space for a while in Forex but now that they have futures they have good plans that are similar to some of the best firms. Only thing I do not like is the 80 split for payouts instead of the typical 90/10. They also only have Tradovate so that is limiting if you want to use rithmic platforms like Motivewave or Quantower. Their dashboard on the website is very clean and provides all the info necessary and they even have a trading journal in there and an economic calendar. Very fast account activation as well and their support is responsive. The firm seems to be getting more popular and rightfully so. Working on getting a payout with them and hope to edit my review with more positive things once I do but as of right now great firm and no complaints at all.

Very underrated firm. Great customer support; contacted them about an issue and got a response within minutes. Very simple payout rules. The only thing I wish was different is their payout caps. They're pretty small, especially for the first few payouts, but other than that, E8 is extremely underrated.

Review

An underrated prop firm that gets overshadowed by other firms that can offer better costs to consumers. Their dashboard has unique features but lacks in user convenience. They've got standard rules and payout policies, but nothing that makes them stand out from their peers. I recommend trying them out if you notice a great deal, but otherwise, they aren't my first recommendation.

Smooth process with Code Smart. I would give them higher ratings if they offered more promos. They have 10 second hold rule for trading news, which is standard for most now. I would buy more E8 when its time to scale, isnt the best but they definitely are becoming known and competitive.

This is a gifted prop firm. Their customer service is way faster than most other prop firms, they usually reply within 15 min after the ticket got created. Trading rule is clear and straight forwarder, basic consistency and min trading days. I like their 100K daily loss limit, it is $2000, it saved my accounts for more than 2 times. One perfect thing is that you do not need to worry about going into live, because they do not have live accounts, you can keep withdrawing from sim funded.

E8 is a solid prop firm overall. The dashboard is simple and easy to use, but it could use more products to trade. They do pay out as long as you follow the rules, which is important. I don’t like the 10-second hold rule or the daily drawdown breach. The 80/20 split also isn’t the best compared to other firms. That said, the 1-day pass evaluations are a nice feature, and being able to trade metals is a big plus. Overall, it’s an above-average firm that I still use no issues so far.

Plus is that there is one time fee and you don't have time pressure to pass eval. There is 40 % consitency rule on funded, and it have limited platform to choose from. I don't like that dashbord too it is not clear it is hard to read, but beside that it is good firm overlall very solid in my opinion.

I really like the prices on the E8 accounts and the payout rules, have not taken any payouts on E8 however. But the payout caps are looking really good. I have had issues fixed by support, they are very helpful also. Would recommend this as one of the top firms for futures at this moment.
