The short answer

Instant 24h is a sprint. You get an instant funded account with no evaluation phase, and your job is to reach a 3% profit target inside a 24-hour window. Because the goal is fast, the risk rules are the tightest in our instant class: 2% daily drawdown, 3% trailing maximum drawdown, and a 1% maximum loss on any single trade.

Instant 24h is built for traders who want one clean, decisive run rather than a slow grind. Everything below explains exactly what you have to do, the lines you cannot cross, and who this format actually suits.


What Instant 24h is in one line

It is an instant account (no two-phase evaluation, no waiting) where the entire challenge is compressed into a single 24-hour sprint: reach 3% profit within the window while staying inside the risk limits.

Like every UZO account, it runs on real live market prices with simulated capital. Real spreads and commissions apply, but no live money is ever at risk. Your performance is what counts.


The 3% target and the 24-hour window

The objective is a single number: grow your account balance by 3%. The window is 24 hours, measured from when your sprint starts. The exact start and end mechanics (and what happens when the clock runs out) are covered in detail in the related articles below.

This is the one UZO instant format that carries a profit target. The standard Instant and Instant Pro accounts have no target at all. The 24h trades that freedom for speed: hit 3% in time and you are through, with no minimum trading days to satisfy and no slow accumulation.


The tight rules: 2% daily, 3% trailing, 1% per trade

A fast target comes with tight guardrails. These are the strictest risk rules of any instant product, so it pays to internalise them before you start.

Rule

Limit

What it means

Profit target

3%

Reach this within the 24-hour window to pass.

Daily drawdown

2%

Your equity cannot fall 2% below the day's starting level. Resets at 00:00 UTC.

Trailing max drawdown

3%

The overall floor that follows your equity up as you profit.

Single-trade max loss

1%

No individual trade may lose more than 1% of the account.

The 1% single-trade cap is the rule traders feel most. It forces disciplined position sizing: you cannot bet the account on one move, even in a sprint. In practice it means sizing each trade so its worst-case stop stays inside 1%, and reaching 3% across a small number of well-managed trades rather than one swing.

The 3% trailing maximum drawdown follows your equity upward. As you gain, the floor rises with you, so a strong start protects more of your progress. Your live limits are always shown on your dashboard.


Account sizes and split

Instant 24h accounts are available up to $1M. Whatever size you choose, the economics are identical to every other UZO account.

You keep 90%

The reward split is 90% to you and 10% to UZO, fixed at every account size. It never shrinks as you scale.

Leverage is 1:100. Exact prices per account size are shown on the live pricing page, since they vary by size. Check current pricing on your dashboard before you choose your size.


Who the sprint is for

Instant 24h rewards a specific kind of trader. It is a good fit if you:

  • Trade decisively and prefer a clear, time-boxed goal over an open-ended grind

  • Already size positions tightly and respect a hard 1% per-trade ceiling

  • Have a setup or session you know well and can act on inside a single day

It is probably not for you if you like to build profit slowly over many days, dislike working against a clock, or trade larger size per position. In that case the standard Instant or Instant Pro accounts, which carry no profit target and no time pressure, will suit you better.

Be honest with yourself before you start. The sprint is fast and the rules are unforgiving, and most evaluations do not pass. Picking the format that matches how you actually trade is the single biggest factor in your result.
