Can I trade over the weekend?

Do you allow to hold trades over the weekend or enter new positions?

Updated over 10 months ago

Users are welcome to hold simulated trades over the weekends on all evaluations including E8 Trader accounts. Because our simulated platform tracks real market conditions, please be aware that there are risks associated with market gaps when trading pairs that do not stay open during the weekend trading hours like Forex pairs, Indices and Commodities. As a risk manager, it is your job to determine the risks and rewards of holding a position overnight, as we do not want to limit a user’s strategy. However, if a gap, slippage, or wide spread causes a violation, it is the user’s responsibility.

All users are responsible for knowing the trading hours on each instrument for themselves:
