Full reviewTake Profit Trader
Full reviewE8 Funding — Overview
E8 Markets (formerly E8 Funding) offers three account styles across Forex, Futures, and Crypto markets. Signature is the flagship single-phase eval (6% target, 3–4% EOD drawdown, 80% payout). One is configurable — pick your drawdown (4–14%, dynamic) and payout (80–100%) with a 12% target. Pro is the budget option: 8% target vs 8% static drawdown with a tight 2.5% daily limit. No activation fees, and you can pass in as little as one day.
Take Profit Trader — Overview
Take Profit Trader is a futures prop firm with a three-tier structure: Test (the eval, monthly fee), PRO (funded sim, 80/20 split, intraday trailing drawdown, day-one withdrawals, buffer requirement), and PRO+ (live account, 90/10 split, EOD drawdown, broker-rate commissions). Since March 2026, promotion to PRO+ is automatic for consistent traders — no manual invite needed. The daily loss limit was removed across all account sizes — the EOD trailing drawdown is now the only loss constraint on Test accounts. Rules of conduct: be consistent, no trading bots, no counter positions.
