E8 Markets is a Dallas-based prop firm launched in 2021 and one of the stronger options for US-based members — a group most European firms exclude. It offers flexible evaluation tracks (including customisable challenges), accounts up to $150K each with total allocation scaling toward $1.25M, and a profit split starting at 80% that can reach 95% on customised accounts.
Targets are realistic — roughly 8% in phase one and 4–5% in later phases — with total drawdown capped at 8% and a single minimum trading day. Commission runs about $5/lot. A 5% bonus on the first withdrawal has featured in its offers. Trustpilot sits around 4.2/5; the platform lineup has evolved (E8's own tooling alongside MetaTrader-class platforms), so verify the current platform list for your region before buying.
The drawdown math is the familiar shape: an 8% total budget with a daily limit means the same sizing discipline as FTMO — at 0.5% risk per trade, a basket of our FVG instruments stays comfortably inside. The single minimum trading day and realistic targets make the evaluation itself less of an obstacle than most.
Two cautions: E8's product lineup and platforms have been revised repeatedly since launch, so confirm the current rules and platform for the exact plan you buy; and like every major firm, mechanical mirroring of a shared feed can trip similarity detection — select your trades and size them yourself.
E8's case is simple: if you are in the US and want a funded forex-style account, your options are thin, and E8 is one of the credible ones — sane targets, fast qualification, and a split that scales to 95%.
Outside the US, FTMO, FundingPips and FundedNext offer steadier rulebooks. Wherever you are, read the current plan terms at purchase — E8 changes things often.
E8 is one of the few credible doors open to you. Verify the current plan rules first.
