Review

I’ve a good experience with E8 .The evaluation process is straightforward and feels fair —clear rules, no hidden surprises, and realistic targets. Their dashboard is also clean and easy to navigate. I noted some recent improvement to help track progress and clearly reflect the trading objectives and targets , making it clearer and easier to ensure that rules are met. which is obviously the most important factor with any prop firm. Customer support has also been responsive whenever I had questions and is able to address my queries to my satisfaction . Overall, E8 Futures feels like a firm that actually understands traders and isn’t trying to trap you with unrealistic rules. Definitely worth considering if you’re looking to get funded in futures.

E8 has become a very competitive firm to trade at with the latest acct structure revamp a couple months ago, the 50k acct is fairly priced when there running promos. A big benefit of the signature accts is a 90% profit split and sim payout model that doesnt force you into live acct if your trading well. i willsay the 50k acct is a bit overpriced without promos compared to the competition. Tradovate is an option which is huge plus for me personally, all in all great firm, fair rules, and solid customer support team

I recently spent a couple of weeks trading with E8 Futures and had a positive overall experience. I ran into an issue, but their customer support responded quickly and resolved it without any hassle. I also appreciate their one-time fee model, which is different from many firms that charge monthly. The team was attentive and helpful, making a stressful situation much easier to handle. The platform was straightforward to use and remained stable during my sessions. I haven’t reached a payout yet, but based on my experience and what I’ve heard from others, they seem reliable and professional.

Only used them one time and it wasn’t terrible. Perfect for one day passes, but they have 35% consistency once funded. They are also super expensive compared to all the other firms. Honestly would only get another account if I’m live with all the other firms

Review

I tried E8 Futures by purchasing a few 50K Signature accounts, mainly because of their “fail a funded, get a free evaluation reset” offer. Overall, I wasn’t a big fan. The 35% consistency rule in the funded phase felt overly restrictive and made it harder to trade naturally. Compared to other firms, the rules just seem stricter without much added benefit. I also found the website confusing, which led to me accidentally purchasing an account without applying a discount code—definitely frustrating. When I reached out to support, they were quick to respond, but it took multiple attempts to actually get clear information about a refund. I didn’t receive proper guidance until my third attempt. That said, once I received the refund confirmation email, the refund itself was processed within 3 business days. On top of that, their pricing is higher than many competitors, which makes it harder to justify given the tighter rules. In my opinion, there are better prop firms out there to spend your money on.

I believe they are a solid option; I have no doubt they will pay out when the time comes. I think they have good plans and favorable rules if your trading allows you to scale accounts. I would definitely recommend them.

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.
