Unlimited

No completion deadline; the inactivity rule still applies.

No minimum trading days. At least one trade must be placed every 60 days to avoid inactivity.

Five qualifying days, not necessarily consecutive, per evaluation phase. The count resets on funding and must be met again before the first payout, but not subsequent payouts.

• E8 One Perpetual: none
• E8 Pro Perpetual: none

A qualifying day requires net realised profit of at least 0.8% of the starting balance. Days run from 00:30 to 00:30 UTC. Holding a position open does not add days.

One registered profile and verified identity. Multiple challenges and funded accounts may sit under that profile; each is assessed separately and results cannot offset one another.

Self-built or publicly available commercial EAs, bots and AI are allowed in evaluation and funded accounts. REST and WebSocket API included without fee or approval; no FIX or L2/L3 depth through the API. MT4/MT5 EAs need a bridge or adaptation. Private, exclusive or bespoke signals are prohibited.

VPNs, VPSs and IP changes are allowed. Only the verified owner may trade; access sharing remains prohibited.

Only within the same account. Cross-account, cross-platform and cross-firm hedging is prohibited, including via copiers. First offence involving one trade: trades closed and a one-time warning per user; multiple trades or repetition: permanent closure.

Optional. A triggered Stop Loss exits at market and may slip. Stop Limit orders are disabled.

You cannot hold more than 50% of your trades for under one minute

Ordinary scalping is allowed; tick scalping, HFT and pricing or latency exploitation are prohibited.

No general numeric per-trade cap. Leverage, equity limits and the ban on abusive risk still apply. Single stocks have per-company and total exposure limits published on the platform, with possible short restrictions.

Only between accounts owned by the same trader. Public signal services and commercial EAs are allowed without subscriber coordination. Copying other people's accounts, third-party management and private, exclusive or bespoke signals are prohibited.

At least one trade every 60 days

Deactivated after 30 calendar days without valid activity, counted from assignment or the latest trade close. A trade held at least 60 seconds qualifies; open positions pause the timer and pending orders do not count. One support-requested reactivation is available within six months; afterwards it may be treated as a hard breach.

• E8 One Perpetual: 40% best-day rule in the performance account
• E8 Pro Perpetual: no consistency rule

No cap on a winning day's share of profit; qualifying-day requirements and prohibited strategies still apply.
