We call this Syn-Fi: synthetic finance. The prices are real and live, drawn from the global markets. The capital is simulated. The rewards you earn are real money. That combination lets you prove and grow real trading skill without ever risking your own balance in the market.

This article is the front door. Read it once and you will understand what UZO is, how it works, and what to click next.

UZO is a firm that lets you demonstrate trading discipline on a simulated account, and rewards you with real money when you trade well and stay within the rules.

We are clear about the mechanics: the account is a high-fidelity simulation running on real prices, not a pool of live client money. That is a feature, not a caveat. It means your risk is capped at the cost of your account, and your upside is paid in real currency.

The entire model fits in one line: prove your skill on an evaluation or buy an instant account, trade within the rules, then keep 90% of the simulated profit as a real reward.

One more thing worth knowing up front: on the One Step and Two Step evaluations, your evaluation fee is refunded in full, 100%, with your third reward. Pass, trade well, and the cost of entry comes back to you.

You trade real instruments at real, live prices across six markets: forex, metals, crypto, indices, shares and energies, more than 1,300 instruments in all. Leverage is 1:100. You are welcome to run expert advisors, bots and custom indicators, and to copy trade between accounts you own, provided each account uses its own distinctive settings. News trading, overnight positions and weekend trades are all permitted. The only practices we do not allow are those that would game the simulation itself, such as latency or HFT arbitrage and tick exploitation.

You can start small and grow large. Accounts begin from $5,000, with the current price shown at checkout, and you can hold up to $1M, then scale beyond that through our scaling plan toward $2.5M.

UZO is built for traders who want their discipline measured fairly and rewarded properly. The rules are clear, published in full, and the same for everyone. The targets are achievable and the limits are generous, so you always know exactly what you are working toward.

Drawdown is measured on your equity, which includes any open and floating profit or loss, and the daily limit resets at 00:00 UTC. To protect your progress while you build it, most accounts use a trailing drawdown. On One Step, Instant and Instant Pro it trails your equity upward as you profit, then locks at your starting balance once you cross the profit threshold, so a single bad run cannot erase the progress you have secured. Instant 24h uses a trailing drawdown that never locks, and Two Step uses a static maximum drawdown that never moves.

Getting paid is done in your own name. You must be the person shown on your identity documents throughout verification, and rewards are paid only to a bank account or crypto wallet that matches your verified identity. We do not pay third parties or accounts in a different name, which keeps every reward yours and yours alone.

Now that you have the full picture, here is where to go depending on what you want to do:
