Practice with a free E8 Futures paper trading demo before you buy.
This simulator replicates the trading conditions of the E8 Futures $100,000 Regular evaluation. Before spending money on a real challenge, practice here to verify your strategy meets the 6% profit target while respecting the 4.5% maximum drawdown limit and the 2% daily loss cap.
E8 Futures uses a trailing drawdown calculation. This means your maximum loss level moves up as your equity grows — once your account reaches a new high, the stop-out rises with it. Practicing this mechanic in the simulator helps you understand how trailing drawdown affects your risk management.
