Answers without fine print

Frequently asked questions

What HyperFX does, what it deliberately does not do, and how to interpret every result responsibly. Answers reflect the live product methodology rather than generic trading claims.

Product and AI

What the analysis contains and where its limits are.

What is HyperFX?

HyperFX is an educational market-analysis workspace. Choose a supported market and timeframe to receive a current structured scenario, code-checked entry, stop, targets and risk/reward, then test and review it in the journal. HyperFX is not a broker, portfolio manager or signal guarantee.

How AI chart analysis works →
Does HyperFX tell me what to buy or sell?

No. It presents a probabilistic analysis and may explicitly return NO TRADE when structure, image quality or risk/reward is insufficient. You remain responsible for deciding whether to act and for checking price, fees, liquidity and personal risk.

How is HyperFX different from asking a general chatbot about a chart?

The output follows a fixed analysis contract. The model describes visible structure and proposes levels; validation checks the format, while code-based checks recalculate risk/reward and reject inconsistent direction or levels. The result also preserves scenarios, confidence, invalidation and a timestamp instead of returning an unstructured opinion.

Can the AI be wrong?

Yes. A chart is incomplete information, future order flow is unknown and image recognition can fail. Confidence is not a probability of profit. Treat every result as a hypothesis that needs current-market confirmation and a predefined loss limit.

Why does the result sometimes say NO TRADE?

Because not entering is a valid risk decision. HyperFX can withhold a plan when the chart is unclear, levels conflict, price is already too far from entry or the available target does not compensate for the stop distance.

Charts and analysis quality

How to provide enough visual and market context.

Which markets can I analyze?

HyperFX supports readable candlestick charts for crypto, forex, stocks, indices, gold, oil and other liquid instruments. Data conventions differ: forex has sessions and spreads, crypto trades continuously, and gold reacts strongly to dollar and macro events. The same visual pattern should not be assumed to behave identically across markets.

Setups, levels and outcomes

How to read a plan before and after publication.

What is a trading setup?

A setup is a conditional plan, not a prediction headline. It identifies direction, entry or trigger, stop, one or more targets, timeframe, publication time and invalidation. If the trigger never occurs or the setup expires, there may be no trade at all.

Read every setup field →
Why can entry be above the current price?

That can be correct for a long breakout order: price must first confirm strength by reaching the trigger. It can also indicate a stale or badly interpreted plan. Compare direction, order logic, current price, publication time and invalidation before treating it as intentional.

When is a setup no longer fresh?

Freshness is not only age. A setup is stale when price has already travelled through its target path, hit invalidation, moved too far from entry, or when its intended session/timeframe has passed. HyperFX surfaces timestamps and freshness warnings so an old chart is not mistaken for a new opportunity.

Freshness and invalidation guide →
How are target, stop, breakeven and expired results counted?

A target hit is positive according to the recorded plan; a stop is negative; breakeven means the position was protected and closed around the defined zero-risk level; expired means the opportunity ended without a valid terminal target/stop result. Breakeven and expired should not be silently counted as wins.

Does a high win rate mean a strategy is profitable?

No. Profitability depends on average win, average loss, fees, execution and sample size. A 40% win rate can be profitable with sufficiently large wins; an 80% win rate can lose money if occasional losses are much larger. Review expectancy in R, profit factor and drawdown alongside win rate.

05

Risk and demo trading

Sizing, settlement and honest performance review.

What does 1R mean?

1R is the amount you chose to lose if the stop is reached. If account risk is $50, then −1R is −$50 and +2R is +$100 before fees and slippage. R makes trades with different prices and markets comparable.

Risk/reward and sizing →
How is risk/reward calculated?

For a long plan, risk per unit is entry minus stop and reward per unit is target minus entry. For a short plan the signs reverse. HyperFX discards any model-written ratio and recalculates it from the levels in code.

How does demo trading work?

You open a play-money position from a saved analysis or published setup. Server-owned levels are repriced against live data, risk is limited, and settlement begins on subsequent market candles. The journal then records the actual outcome rather than letting the browser choose it.

Demo trading and journal guide →
Can demo performance predict my live results?

No. Demo results are useful evidence about setup selection and discipline, but live trading adds slippage, spreads, fees, latency, emotions and liquidity constraints. Use demo as a filter for bad processes, not as a promise of future profit.

Why limit simultaneous demo positions?

A position cap prevents several correlated setups from hiding the true amount at risk. Five separate crypto longs may behave like one large market bet. Limits encourage selection, make drawdown interpretable and reduce overtrading.

Account, Telegram and privacy

Access, data handling and subscriptions.

Can I try HyperFX before choosing a plan?

Yes. Create a free account — no email confirmation is required — to unlock three complete live-market analyses once. Further analyses require a plan or an eligible credit pack. Charts, learning, the basic journal, games, leaderboards and setup previews remain available without a paid plan.

What does the Telegram bot add?

Telegram provides a faster entry point for chart analysis and, when enabled for your account, setup, result and reminder notifications in your selected language. The website remains the fuller workspace for live charts, history, journal and settings.

Can I change the language?

Yes. HyperFX supports English, Russian, Spanish, Turkish and Korean. The website language switcher keeps the same page when a translation exists. For a linked account, the saved locale also drives supported Telegram messages and product communication.

Do I need to share exchange credentials or a seed phrase?

No. Never send a password, seed phrase, private key or withdrawal-enabled API key to HyperFX support or paste it into chart analysis. Public wallet intelligence uses public blockchain data; chart analysis only needs the visible chart or supported live-market data.

How do subscriptions and failed analyses work?

Plans define analysis allowances and feature access. Usage is reserved atomically before a paid AI request; if the provider request fails, the reservation is released so a technical failure does not intentionally consume the analysis. Available payment methods depend on the live billing configuration.

Sports events and predictions

Probabilities, odds, freshness, settlement and responsible use.

What does a HyperFX sports pick represent?

It is an informational probability assessment for a specific market and event, recorded with its publication time, selection and available odds. It is not a guaranteed result or an instruction to bet. The useful comparison is between the estimated probability, the market-implied probability and the uncertainty around both.

How sports event analysis works →
How do decimal odds become implied probability?

Divide one by the decimal odds. Odds of 2.00 imply 50% before bookmaker margin; 1.50 implies about 66.7%. Prices across all outcomes normally add to more than 100%, so remove that overround before calling the result a fair market probability.

Probability and market pricing →
What are edge and closing-line value?

Edge is the difference between an estimated probability and a comparable margin-adjusted market probability at publication. Closing-line value compares the price taken with the final market price before the event. Neither guarantees a win, but repeated positive CLV can be more informative than a short run of outcomes.

When does a sports prediction become stale?

When team news, line-ups, injuries, venue, weather, schedule or market price changes enough to alter the original probability. A prediction must be read with its timestamp. Once an event starts, a pre-match assessment should not be presented as a fresh live prediction.

How are postponed, cancelled and void events counted?

They should follow a declared settlement policy and remain separate from wins and losses. A void result must not improve win rate, while a rescheduled event should only settle when the source and market rules make the outcome unambiguous. HyperFX excludes pending and void predictions from the public hit-rate denominator.

Why is there sometimes a 1win partner link?

It is an optional sponsored route to view third-party sports markets. HyperFX may earn compensation if an eligible adult signs up or uses the service. It is not an endorsement, never changes the analysis and is subject to age, country and operator restrictions. Gambling can cause financial harm; never chase losses.

Token Terminal, tokens and wallets

Risk scores, evidence coverage, airdrops, public wallets, tracking and billing.

Does a low HyperFX risk score mean a token is safe?

No. The score only adds risks detected in the available inputs. Missing checks remain Unknown and lower data coverage; HyperFX never certifies a token as safe.

What does Data Coverage mean?

It is the share of required facts actually returned by current providers. It measures evidence completeness, not token quality or future returns.

How does HyperFX identify a token?

By chain and canonical contract address, never by ticker alone. Different contracts with the same symbol remain different entities.

How does HyperFX verify an airdrop?

Confirmed and points-program states require a recent official website, documentation, social or foundation source. Unknown reward, eligibility and deadlines stay Unknown.

Will HyperFX ask me to connect a wallet or enter a seed phrase?

No secret is ever needed. Read-only wallet tools use a public address only. Never enter a seed phrase, recovery words or private key into HyperFX or an airdrop form.

What is free and what is paid in Token Terminal?

Public evidence pages, new-pool browsing and a limited number of scans are free. Saving more watches and automated monitoring require an active HyperFX paid plan.

Can I go from discovery to a trade inside HyperFX?

Yes, when a token and network pass the current data and execution checks. HyperFX shows the evidence first, requests a fresh route and then asks your own wallet to sign. If evidence is incomplete, the trade action stays unavailable.

Does HyperFX hold my crypto or private keys?

No. Token execution is non-custodial: HyperFX never receives your seed phrase or private key, and your wallet remains the only signer.

What fee does HyperFX charge for token execution?

The HyperFX execution fee is 0.65%, 0.60%, 0.55% or 0.50% according to confirmed 30-day volume. The exact tier, route and minimum received amount are shown before wallet confirmation; network gas and provider price impact are separate.

How do token pages appear in search and stay current?

A canonical page enters the token sitemap as soon as a valid chain and contract have a persisted market observation. Low activity, incomplete coverage or stale evidence is labelled honestly on the page but does not remove that known public URL from search.

How do verified traders and copy alerts work?

A public trader profile requires at least one transaction confirmed through HyperFX. Following is free and never authorizes a trade. A copy alert lasts up to 15 minutes, rechecks current token risk, liquidity and price drift, requests a fresh route and still requires your wallet signature.

Does Token Sniper buy automatically?

No. Sniper is an assisted alert: you set maximum detected risk, minimum liquidity, maximum provider-reported price impact and an exact review amount. A match opens a fresh quote; HyperFX cannot sign or move funds.

What does the 20% referral reward mean?

An eligible referrer accrues 20% of the HyperFX execution fee actually recorded on a referred user’s confirmed transaction. It is not 20% of trade volume, deposits or profit, and it is recorded in the original fee token without an invented USD conversion.
