Who pays to move the money scores zero because the firm publishes nothing we could read. Nothing is filled in with a guess.

This score is about getting paid, not about trading rules. It is never averaged into the Freedom Score: a firm can have the most generous rules on the board and still be the hardest place to get money out of.

Be aware

Of the 14 payout conditions E8 Markets publishes, these can cost you money or your account.

  • Money you cannot withdraw yetPayout buffer (E8 Signature)

    A non-requestable buffer equal to the EOD Dynamic Drawdown must be left in the account before payouts can start. On a $100,000 account with a 3% EOD that is $3,000 permanently locked.

    Profit exists in the account but cannot be withdrawn yet.

    Source
    “Payout buffer - Before you can start requesting payout, you need to leave a buffer in your account in the same size as your EOD Dynamic Drawdown. The buffer can not be requested.”

  • Left to the firm's discretionDiscretionary risk review for aggressive sizing

    No hard maximum-risk rule, but 'all-or-nothing' behaviour is flagged and the risk team may intervene.

    The outcome is the firm's decision rather than a published test you can meet.

    Source
    “Risk team: If your approach is flagged as overly aggressive, E8's risk team may reach out to discuss adjusting it.”

  • Money you cannot withdraw yet50% of profits withheld as a drawdown buffer on every payout (E8 Pro)

    Only half of total profits is ever requestable; the rest stays in the account as a buffer.

    Profit exists in the account but cannot be withdrawn yet.

    Source
    “Every payout is calculated in two steps: first, 50% of your total profits is set aside as your requestable amount. Then, depending on your chosen plan, you receive up 100% of that amount. The remaining portion stays in your account as a drawdown buffer, protecting you from violations after the Static Drawdown Loss level is moved to your initial balance level.”

Every condition · 14

  1. 140% Best Day consistency rule (E8 One, E8 Classic performance stage). No single trading day may exceed 40% of total generated profits. Does not apply in the challenge stage. source

  2. 235% Best Day consistency rule (E8 Signature). Tighter than E8 One. Failing any one payout requirement blocks the request outright. source

  3. 3Net profit must exceed 50% of the daily drawdown (E8 One, E8 Classic). On a $100,000 account with a 4% daily drawdown, that means at least $2,001 of net profit before any payout is possible. source

  4. 45 minimum profitable days between payouts (E8 Signature). A profitable day is realised closed PnL of 0.3% or more. Counter resets to zero after each payout. Does not apply to the first payout. source

  5. 5Payout buffer (E8 Signature). A non-requestable buffer equal to the EOD Dynamic Drawdown must be left in the account before payouts can start. On a $100,000 account with a 3% EOD that is $3,000 permanently locked. source

  6. 650% of profits withheld as a drawdown buffer on every payout (E8 Pro). Only half of total profits is ever requestable; the rest stays in the account as a buffer. source

  7. 7Payout caps and a hard limit of 5 payouts per account (E8 Zero); payout caps on E8 Signature. E8 Zero accounts stop paying after 5 payouts. E8 One and E8 Pro have no payout caps. source

  8. 82% daily profit cap (E8 Pro). Only 2% of the initial balance per day counts toward the target or profit, no matter how much more is made. source

  9. 910-minute high-impact news prohibition (E8 One and E8 Classic performance accounts). Opening, closing, SL/TP or stop orders within 5 minutes either side of a high-impact release are not permitted; profits may be removed. The platform will not block the action technically. E8 Pro and E8 Signature have no news restriction. source

  10. 10First payout moves the drawdown level. On E8 Pro the static drawdown is fixed except that requesting the first payout moves it; on E8 One the Dynamic Drawdown locks permanently at the initial balance level. source

  11. 1160-day inactivity. At least one trade must be placed and closed every 60 days on all stages. source

  12. 12Discretionary risk review for aggressive sizing. No hard maximum-risk rule, but 'all-or-nothing' behaviour is flagged and the risk team may intervene. source

  13. 13Copy trading limited to your own accounts; E8 evaluations must be traded independently. Copying trades or reusing the same trade ideas across multiple E8 evaluation accounts is prohibited. source

  14. 14Additional hedging, all-or-nothing and irresponsible-trading rules exist but are not in the saved pages. Every product page defers to a separate article that was not saved locally, so the full text of these rules could not be verified. source
