E8 Markets8.5/10 · Forex
Genuinely customizable and scalping-tolerant, but the trailing 'Dynamic' drawdown on E8 One, the 40%/35% best-day rule and the funded-stage news window ambush traders who only learned the laxer challenge rules.
Best for: Swing/overnight and news traders who want a one-step path and choose E8 One (custom drawdown + weekend holding) — not pure tick-scalpers or anyone copying external signals.
