Hyper Leverage
Overview
Hyper Leverage (Hyper Lev) is HertzFlow's zero-fee trading mode — instead of paying fixed open/close fees, you share a portion of your profits with the protocol. If your trade loses, you pay nothing.
This makes Hyper Lev ideal for high-conviction directional trades where you expect a big move and want zero upfront cost.
Hyper Lev positions are fully isolated from Normal mode. If you have both a Normal and a Hyper Lev position in the same market, they are tracked separately with different IDs, collateral, and PnL.
How It Works
No open or close fee — you enter and exit at the oracle mark price with zero position fee
Funding, borrow, and price impact still apply throughout your position's lifetime
If you close at a profit — the protocol deducts a profit-sharing fee before crediting your wallet
If you close at a loss — no fee is deducted. You receive whatever collateral remains after the loss
Availability
Hyper Lev is only available on markets that have been explicitly enabled for it. When available, a Normal / Hyper Lev toggle appears in the trade panel above the leverage slider. If you don't see the toggle, that market only supports Normal mode.

Profit Sharing Tiers
When your Hyper Lev position closes in profit, the protocol takes a share. The higher your ROI, the more you keep:
0% – 1%
20% of profits
1% – 5%
20% → 50% (linear)
5% – 100%
50% → 80% (linear)
100% – 500%
80% of profits
500% – 2500%
80% → 90% (linear)
> 2500%
90% of profits
Example: You open a $100 USDT Hyper Lev position that closes at +150% ROI ($150 profit). At 150% ROI, you retain 80% → you receive $120 profit, the protocol takes $30.
The profit share is calculated on gross profit before fees. Funding, borrow, and price impact fees are deducted separately, exactly as in Normal mode.
Stop Loss Requirements
Unlike Normal mode where SL is optional, Hyper Lev positions must always have an active stop loss, and it must fall within a tighter range:
Upper bound: SL must be at or below −30% PnL (can't be set too close to entry)
Lower bound: SL must be at or above −80% PnL (can't exceed max loss)
This dual-bound requirement protects the liquidity pool from absorbing outsized losses.
If you try to open a Hyper Lev position without a valid SL in the −80% to −30% range, the order is rejected.
Leverage Range
Hyper Lev leverage ranges are configured separately per market and are higher than Normal mode. For example, a market might offer:
Normal mode: 1.1x – 40x
Hyper Lev: 75x – 200x
When you switch between modes, the leverage slider resets to the minimum of the selected mode.
Collateral Rules
Add collateral
✅ Allowed
✅ Allowed
Remove collateral
✅ Allowed
❌ Disabled
Removing collateral is disabled in Hyper Lev to prevent circumventing the mandatory SL mechanics.
Loss Rebate (Normal Mode Only)
Normal mode positions on the weaker side of OI skew may qualify for a Loss Rebate — a partial reimbursement of losses at close. This is not available in Hyper Lev mode. See Position Management for details.
When to Use Hyper Lev
Best for:
High-conviction directional trades — the profit-sharing tiers reward bigger wins
Zero upfront cost — if you prefer no entry/exit fees and are comfortable sharing profits
Short-duration, high-leverage positions — where fixed fees would eat a large share of your PnL
Consider Normal mode instead if:
Targeting small moves (< 5% ROI) — the profit-sharing tiers are designed for higher-ROI trades; at low ROI, the protocol's share is proportionally larger
Scalping or precise entries — limit orders are unavailable in Hyper Lev; market orders only
Active collateral management — collateral withdrawal is disabled once the position is open
FAQ
Can I run a Normal and Hyper Lev position simultaneously in the same market? Yes. They are fully isolated — separate position IDs, separate collateral, separate PnL.
Does the profit share apply to funding/borrow income? No. Profit share only applies to directional PnL (mark price movement). Funding, borrow, and price impact settle independently.
What happens if my SL is hit? Your position closes at the SL trigger price (guaranteed execution). The remaining collateral is returned to your wallet — no profit share fee applies on losing trades.
Is Hyper Lev available on all markets? No. The mode toggle only appears on markets where Hyper Lev is enabled.
What is the minimum position size? It varies by market. A common minimum is 750 USDT notional. The interface shows an error if your order is below the threshold.
