Firm notes
Target, daily and max loss are chosen together; the preset is shown first. Max loss trails the highest closed balance and locks at the initial balance. One closed trade every 60 days keeps the account active. E8's own articles disagree on the preset (6%/4% vs 4%/3%).

Firm notes
Target is tied to the static drawdown chosen (6/8/10%). 2% daily profit cap: profit above 2% of initial balance is removed at rollover (challenge and funded). Static max loss moves only when the first payout is processed.

Firm notes
Forex, crypto and futures. No hard daily breach; the performance account has a daily pause (soft breach). End-of-day dynamic drawdown that turns static at the starting balance. Payout caps apply. Target, max loss amount, minimum days and time limit could not be verified.

How E8 Markets measures the daily loss
The daily limit is where most challenges are lost. What counts, from which balance, and when it resets:
- E8 One (1-step, customizable): counted from the balance recorded at the daily reset, resets at 00:00 server (UTC+2/+3).
- E8 Pro (Forex/Crypto, 1-step): counted from the balance recorded at the daily reset.
- E8 Signature: no daily loss limit.
Size your E8 Markets trades before you place them
