UZO is a simulated trading platform. You trade on real, live market prices with simulated capital, and you earn real rewards when you perform. You have more than 1,300 instruments to trade across six markets, forex, metals, crypto, indices, shares and energies, all at 1:100 leverage. The rules below exist for a single reason: to keep the simulation fair, so that genuine trading skill is what gets rewarded, and nothing else.

We want you to trade the way you actually trade. Each of the following is permitted on every UZO account.

In short, if it is a legitimate trading approach, it belongs here. Automation is not against the rules. Two conditions keep it fair: an EA or copied strategy must run on your own distinctive settings rather than an identical configuration shared between traders, and copy trading is permitted only across accounts held by the same person, never between different people's accounts. What matters throughout is that your edge comes from the market, not from exploiting how the simulation is built.

A small set of behaviours are set aside because they do not reflect real trading. They attack the simulation itself rather than the market.

These techniques try to profit from microscopic timing or pricing artefacts instead of from a genuine market view. They would not work the same way with live capital at a broker, so they have no place in a simulation built to mirror real trading. Accounts found using them are closed after review.

Two things hold true on every account, whichever product you choose.

Leverage is fixed at 1:100. It is the same at every account size, so your risk maths does not change as you scale.

Every account has drawdown limits. There is a daily loss limit, being how much your account may fall within a single trading day, and a maximum drawdown, being how far it may fall overall before the account ends. Both are measured on your equity, so open, floating profit and loss is included in the calculation as you hold positions. The daily limit resets at 00:00 UTC. The precise percentages depend on the product, and here they are in full.

A static maximum drawdown is measured from your starting balance and does not move. A trailing maximum drawdown follows your equity upward as you make profit. On One Step, Instant and Instant Pro the trailing floor then locks at your starting balance once your profit lifts it that far, so your initial capital is protected from that point on. On Instant 24h the trailing floor never locks and keeps trailing throughout the session. Two Step is measured against a fixed, static figure that never moves. The exact daily and maximum numbers for your account are always shown on your dashboard, alongside how much room you have left.

Whether you need to reach a profit target, and whether any clock is running, depends on the product.

A soft Best Day Rule keeps every reward tied to genuine, spread-out performance. For a withdrawal, no single trading day should account for more than 20% of your total net profit in the current reward segment, being the profit earned since your last reward. Exactly 20% is fine; only above it is held. On Instant 24h this takes the form of a Best Trade Rule, where no single trade may exceed 15% of that profit. On One Step, Two Step, Instant and Instant Pro the rule never fails your account. It simply holds a withdrawal until your profit is spread more evenly, and then the reward proceeds. On Instant 24h, if a single trade exceeds 15%, the account runs to the end of its 24 hour window as it always does and closes with no reward generated. The only fixed window anywhere is the deliberate 24 hour session built into Instant 24h.

One rule protects every trader equally: an account belongs to one real person, and that person is you. Identity verification must be completed in your own name, and you must be the individual shown on your own documents throughout. You may not use anyone else's documents. Rewards are paid only to a bank account or crypto wallet held in your own name and matching your verified identity. We do not pay third parties, differently named accounts or another person's wallet. Where a name does not match, the reward is simply held until it is corrected, so it is worth making sure your details line up before you request one.

Two outcomes end an account. Breaching a drawdown limit, daily or maximum, ends it automatically. Using a prohibited technique that games the simulation also ends it, after review by our risk team. Where an account is reset because of a prohibited strategy, a 50% penalty then applies to your next and all ongoing withdrawals from that same account.

The rules are published in full and are entirely achievable. They are not traps; they are the same risk discipline any considered trader already keeps. Trade within your limits and there is nothing here to work around.
