The short answer
On a funded account, yes. UZO caps the loss any single open position may take, measured against your account size: 3% on One Step and Two Step, 2% on Instant and Instant Pro, and 1% on Instant 24h. The cap applies once your account is funded. During the One Step and Two Step evaluation phases there is no single-trade cap.
What the single-trade loss limit is
The single-trade loss limit is the most any one open position may lose, expressed as a percentage of your account size. It sits alongside two account-level limits, your daily drawdown and your maximum drawdown, and works independently of them. The account-level limits govern your account as a whole. The single-trade limit governs one position at a time.
Its purpose is simple risk hygiene. It keeps a single oversized position from taking a large bite out of an account that is otherwise being traded well. If one trade ever runs past the cap, that trade is the issue, not your wider strategy, and sizing each position so its worst case stays inside the cap is the surest way never to reach it.
All of these limits are measured on your live equity, which includes the floating profit and loss on any open positions, so the loss shown on your dashboard is always current and you always know where you stand. The daily drawdown resets at 00:00 UTC. The single-trade cap and the maximum drawdown apply continuously.
It applies once you are funded
The single-trade cap is a funded-account rule. On Instant, Instant Pro and Instant 24h your account is funded from the outset, so the cap applies from your very first trade. On One Step and Two Step it applies once you pass your evaluation and your funded account is activated. During the evaluation phases themselves there is no single-trade cap, which gives you room to trade your own plan on the way to the target.
The cap on each product
Here is the single-trade loss limit for each funded account, shown alongside its account-level limits so you have the full risk picture in one place.
Product | Single-trade loss | Daily drawdown | Maximum drawdown |
One Step | 3% | 3% | 6% trailing |
Two Step | 3% | 4% | 8% absolute |
Instant | 2% | 3% | 5% trailing |
Instant Pro | 2% | 4% | 6% trailing |
Instant 24h | 1% | 2% | 3% trailing (never locks) |
The tightest cap belongs to Instant 24h, which suits its format: a 3% target inside a 24-hour window paired with a 1% per-trade cap and a 2% daily limit. Instant Pro carries a more generous drawdown envelope than Instant (4% daily and 6% maximum, against 3% and 5%), while the per-trade cap on both is 2%.
The 90/10 profit split is the same on every product and at every account size, so you keep 90% of your profit throughout. What differs between these accounts is the size of their risk envelopes, not the share you take home.
Staying inside the cap
Sizing each position so its worst case stays within the cap is the simplest way never to reach it. Set your stop so that, if it is hit, the loss lands comfortably inside your product's percentage, and the cap becomes a backstop rather than a line you trade up against.
On Instant 24h this matters most. With a 1% per-trade cap and a 2% daily limit, measured position sizing lets you take more than one considered trade inside the window while keeping room to spare. The live loss on every open position is on your dashboard in real time, so you can always see how much headroom you have.
