R-multiple is break-even profit divided by that product's own maximum permitted loss — under 1.00 means you can lose more than you need to make to win the fee back. Day count assumes 1% account growth per day, capped by the product's own daily loss limit. Blank cells are figures the firm does not publish.

E8 Signature base prices refreshed
The four Signature fees are $10–$60 higher than the prior capture, so true-cost and break-even comparisons move with them. Check the final checkout total and any active code before paying.
Tradeify list prices and homepage promotions can diverge
The comparison stores stable base purchase prices, not a temporary coupon, reset fee or purchase-date payout cap. Confirm the final discount, reset cost, account purchase date and applicable payout table in checkout and the account agreement.
E8 One default target and drawdown confirmed
Comparisons use the 9% / 4% / 6% default that the listed prices buy. Choosing a different drawdown changes the target and daily limit (and possibly the price), so check the selected configuration in the order confirmation; Indian and Kenyan profiles are additionally capped at the $200K E8 One tier.
E8 Pro pages disagree on prices and configurable terms
The comparison uses the fixed 8% / 8% / 2.5% configuration at the listed prices and does not infer variant prices. Confirm the size, payout option, platform surcharge and final total in checkout.
Every figure above is read from these pages. Products older than 30 days are removed from the comparison until they are recaptured, so a missing product means stale data, not a discontinued plan.
These directory fields describe the firms, not a universal product rule. The sourced product tables above decide the exact fee, split, drawdown and trading conditions. Directory context is not independently refreshed by this comparison; verify platform and payment availability for the exact programme and country.
