E8 Markets has updated the drawdown calculation methodology on select account types. The core trailing drawdown model remains in place, but the calculation period has been adjusted to provide slightly more flexibility for traders who experience normal intraday volatility before closing positions.
Weekend holding and news trading continue to be fully permitted across all E8 Markets accounts — the firm’s defining differentiator for swing traders. The no minimum trading days rule is also unchanged, which makes E8 one of the most flexible evaluations available for traders with low-frequency, high-conviction strategies.
