Your journey starts with an assessment - a structured test of your ability to generate returns within defined risk parameters. Configure your setup, pay the fee, and start trading immediately.

Choose Your Parameters

After navigating to the Start Assessment page, you’ll configure three things:
1

Account Size

Choose your desired initial funding, from $5k to $200k.
2

Product

Pick the markets you want to trade - Crypto, TradFi, or All Markets.
3

Risk Tier

Pick Tight, Low, Medium, or High risk. Each tier has a different risk profile.

Product Choices

Hypernova offers three market packages. Pick the one that matches what you actually trade - there’s no advantage to the broader package if you don’t need the extra coverage.

Crypto

79 perpetual pairs.Major and long-tail crypto perpetuals. The right pick if you trade BTC, ETH, SOL, alts and majors.

TradFi

61 perpetual pairs.Equity, ETF, commodity, index, and FX perpetuals - single-name equities, metals, energy, broad indices, and major currency pairs.

All Markets

140 pairs combined.Crypto + TradFi in a single account. Pick this if you trade across both, or want to flex between them based on conditions.
All pairs and liquidity are sourced from Hyperliquid. The full list of available instruments is visible on your dashboard and may evolve as markets are added or removed.

Risk Tiers

Four risk tiers let you choose how tightly you want to manage drawdown. Tight Risk has a 9% profit target; the other tiers use a 10% target. All tiers have a 5x leverage cap.

Tight Risk

3% DD, 3% MD. The tightest drawdown limits, paired with a 9% profit target.

Low Risk

3% DD, 6% MD. Narrow drawdown limits for measured, consistent traders.

Medium Risk

4% DD, 7% MD. Moderate drawdown limits for traders running larger swings or needing wider stops.

High Risk
