Core Principles

1. Copy Risk, Not Size

This is the foundational principle of HyperSync.

Traditional copy trading platforms mirror a leader's dollar-amount position sizes. This is dangerous:

Leader ($500K account)
Naive Copy ($5K account)
HyperSync Copy ($5K account)

Opens $10K BTC long (2% risk)

Opens $10K BTC long (200% of account!)

Opens $100 BTC long (2% risk)

Gets liquidated at -50%

Gets liquidated almost immediately

Gets liquidated at -50% (same ratio)

HyperSync calculates the risk percentage the leader is taking relative to their total equity, then applies that same percentage to your account. The result: proportional risk, not proportional dollars.

How It Works

Leader Risk % = Leader Position Value / Leader Account Equity
Your Position  = Your Account Equity x Leader Risk % x Your Risk Multiplier

Example:
  Leader equity:     $500,000
  Leader position:   $10,000 (2% risk)
  Your equity:       $5,000
  Your risk mult:    1.0x (default)
  Your position:     $5,000 x 2% x 1.0 = $100

2. Capital Safety First

Every trade — whether from copy trading, strategies, or signals — passes through the Risk Engine before execution. The engine checks:

  • Margin availability: Do you have enough free margin?

  • Leverage limit: Does this trade exceed your max allowed leverage?

  • Liquidation buffer: Is the estimated liquidation price at least 25% away?

  • Daily loss limit: Have you exceeded your daily loss threshold?

  • Max drawdown: Have you exceeded your maximum drawdown limit?

If any check fails, the trade is rejected and logged in the Risk Dashboard so you can see exactly why.

3. Transparent Performance

All performance data on HyperSync is:

  • Verifiable: Backed by on-chain Hyperliquid data

  • Real-time: Updated live, not delayed batch calculations

  • Comprehensive: Includes Sharpe, Sortino, Calmar ratios, win rate, profit factor

4. Hyperliquid-Native

  • Builder code support for earning fee revenue

  • Testnet and Mainnet support — practice risk-free before going live
