E8 Markets: Weekend & overnight holding

ConditionalWarningVerifiedUpdated Jun 5, 2026

E8 One and E8 One Crypto allow overnight and weekend holding at all stages. E8 Signature force-flattens: positions auto-close at 23:00 server time and reopen at 00:15 — no overnight hold.

The gotcha

If you swing/hold over weekends, use E8 One — Signature will close your position nightly whether you like it or not.

What happens if you break it

WarningWarning

This is a soft breach: the firm typically warns or flags the account rather than voiding it, but repeated or flagrant breaches escalate to termination.
