Two Step is built for the risk-conscious trader who wants smaller, split targets and room to breathe. You are trading real live prices on simulated capital, with real spreads and commissions applied uniformly, and no live capital at risk. The route is deliberately steady: lower per-phase targets than a single sprint, a generous drawdown that does not move against you, and no clock forcing your hand.

Phase 1 asks you to grow your starting balance by 3%. That is the lower of the two targets by design, so you can settle into your edge without reaching for size. Trade your own way: expert advisors and bots, custom indicators, news trading, and holding overnight or over the weekend are all allowed.

Once your account closes at or above the 3% gain and you have respected the drawdown, Phase 1 is complete. There is no minimum number of days to wait and no deadline to beat, so you can reach 3% in a few sessions or over several weeks. The pace is yours.

Phase 2 raises the bar to 5%, measured from the fresh Phase 2 starting balance. The rules you already know carry over: the same instruments, the same 1:100 leverage, the same allowed strategies, and the same 12% static maximum drawdown. Nothing new to learn, just one more target to clear.

Across both phases your total growth requirement adds up to 8% (3% then 5%). Splitting it in two is what makes Two Step less pressured than reaching a full target in one go: each phase is a smaller, more digestible step.

Your one hard limit is the maximum drawdown of 12%, and on Two Step it is static. Static means the floor is fixed to your starting balance and does not trail your profits. Whatever you earn, the line below which the account fails stays where it began, so your gains are never used to tighten the limit against you.

In practice that gives you real room: as your equity climbs, the distance between your balance and the 12% floor widens. A static drawdown rewards consistency and protects a good run from a single rough day. Your live distance to the limit is always shown on your dashboard.

Two Step also has a daily drawdown rule that resets at 00:00 UTC each day. The exact daily percentage for Two Step is shown on your dashboard, so always check there for the live figure rather than assuming one.

There is no minimum trading day requirement on Two Step, and no time limit on either phase. You are not forced to keep the account open for a set number of days, and you are not racing a countdown. This is central to the lower-pressure design: you trade when your setups appear and sit out when they do not.

A quick note on what is not allowed, because it applies to every UZO account. Strategies that game the simulation are banned: latency or HFT arbitrage, and tick-exploit or tick-scalping techniques. There is no consistency rule, so you are free to have bigger and smaller days as long as you stay inside the drawdown.

Two Step starts from a $10,000 account with pricing from $52. Larger account sizes are available, and exact prices for each size are shown on the checkout page. Your one-time evaluation fee is fully refunded on your first reward payout, so a passing trader gets their entry cost back.

You can start without any identity verification. KYC happens only after you pass, handled through Veriff, never as a barrier to begin.

Clear Phase 1, then Phase 2, and you move to a funded UZO account. From there you keep 90% of your rewards, with UZO taking 10%, and that split is fixed at every account size.

Funded accounts are protected by the Dynamic Risk Shield, which trails your equity upward and then locks at your starting balance once you cross the profit threshold, so a bad run cannot erase your locked progress. You can also scale: $100K to $200K to $500K to $1M, growing 35% every four months up to $4M, with no new fee.

We say it plainly: most evaluations do not pass. Two Step is designed to give a disciplined trader the fairest, least pressured path through, but it is still a genuine test of skill and risk control.
