<![CDATA[e8 funding, deep dive after 8 months of funded trading]]>passed e8 eval in may 2025, been on their funded program for 8 months. here is my honest review:

strengths:

  • dashboard and tools are best in class among props ive used
  • payouts hit reliably (8 of 8, average 5 business days)
  • their scaling plan actually works as advertised (started $100k, now $200k)
  • rules are crystal clear, no gotcha clauses

weaknesses:

  • their evaluation difficulty is on the harder end
  • support response times slower than alpha
  • max position limits feel arbitrary on certain instruments

honest 8-month review. happy to answer specifics.
