Audacity Capital vs E8 Markets

Rules placed next to each other, with the calculation basis written out — because two firms quoting the same percentage can be measuring completely different things.

What differs most.
  • They calculate the daily loss limit from different reference points, so the percentages are not directly comparable.
  • Audacity Capital has no consistency rule on this plan; E8 Markets does.

Drawn to scale from each plan's own published numbers, on the plan compared in the table below. Day one is the only day on which every daily-loss basis agrees, which is what makes the two bars honestly comparable at all. On day one the account closes first at E8 Markets — its floor sits $7,000 above the floor at Audacity Capital. The two daily-loss floors are measured from different reference points, so they only line up on day one. From day two they move apart.
