What are the risk management conditions at HyroTrader?
All traders must comply with the following risk management parameters.
Profit Distribution Rule
On One-Step and Two-Step challenges, no single trading day may count for more than 40% of your profit target during the evaluation phases. On Zero-Step, no single trade may count for more than 50% of your profit target during the evaluation phase. Profit above the cap stays in your account but doesn't count toward the target, and losing days and losing trades always count in full. This encourages consistent trading rather than relying on one big day or one big trade.
Martingale Strategy
The use of the Martingale strategy is strictly prohibited. Martingale is a high-risk betting system that involves doubling the stake after each losing trade. This strategy can lead to substantial losses and goes against responsible trading practices.
Prohibition of Hedging Across Different Accounts
Hedging within a single account is allowed if the platform supports it, on Bybit, BloFin and Hyro alike. Hedging one challenge against another, for example by opening opposite positions on two different accounts, is prohibited. If we find it, the accounts involved are restricted immediately, with no refund, and the trader is banned.
Low-Cap Altcoin Exposure
Low-cap assets often exhibit limited liquidity and extreme volatility, making demo fills on them unrealistic.
Definition
An asset is considered low-cap if:
- Market capitalization is below $100 million
- Typical 24h volume ranges between $500K–$5M
- It is listed in Innovation Zone (Newly listed coins)
Exposure Limit
You must not allocate more than 5% of your initial account balance (including leverage) across all low-cap assets at any time.
Consequences
- Reassignment to a new challenge
- Only 40% of profit from low-cap trades may count toward the profit target
Account Review Process
Accounts are subject to regular manual reviews, during which we assess for signs of gambling or an “all-or-nothing” mentality. In cases of extremely high risk, we retain the right to implement any of the following actions:
- Issuing a warning
- Removing account profits
- Adjusting the payout
- Temporarily reducing profit splits
- Rejecting withdrawal requests
- Terminating the account in full
