E8 Markets — daily loss limit
Rules read from E8 Markets's own documentation on 2026-07-30 · rules/e8-markets
E8 Markets sets a daily loss limit of 4% ($200) at every account size PropSurvival's corpus carries for this program (5k, 10k, 25k, 50k, 100k, 200k, 400k, 500k), measured from the initial account balance. Breaching it ends the evaluation — the account fails.

"Daily Drawdown 200 ($5K account row, E8 One requirements table); general mechanic on the same page: "Daily drawdown Calculated at 66% of your drawdown. Hard breach." (66% of the 6% default rounds to the page's own 200 figures — the dollar figures, not the rounded "66%" prose, are what this file encodes)"Source: https://e8markets.com/e8-one — retrieved 2026-07-30
