HYPERNOVA – 4-Hour Instant Funding

Four hours. One account. 99% of your profits.

Updated yesterday

The Short Answer

HYPERNOVA is Upcomers' high-intensity instant funding program built for traders who perform best in short, focused sessions. No evaluation phases, no multi-step challenges, no waiting. You get immediate access to a live trading account that activates for exactly 4 hours from your first trade.

Hit the 2% profit target, meet the rules, and walk away with 99% of your net profit. Account sizes range from $5,000 to $500,000.

Why HYPERNOVA?

Some traders don't need 24 hours. They need four. HYPERNOVA is designed for high-conviction traders who can identify setups quickly and execute with precision in a compressed window.

No drawn-out evaluation. No weeks of waiting. No multi-step process. Just 4 hours to show what you can do.

The payout structure is simple. There is no payout cap. No tiered system. No progression. You hit the target, you request your payout, and you receive 99% of your net profit. One session, one payout, done.


Available Account Sizes

$5,000 · $10,000 · $25,000 · $50,000 · $100,000 · $150,000 · $200,000 · $250,000 · $300,000 · $350,000 · $400,000 · $450,000 · $500,000


How It Works

Once you purchase a HYPERNOVA account, it's ready and waiting. The moment you open your first trade, the 4-hour clock starts. From that point, you have exactly 4 hours to hit your 2% profit target while staying within all risk rules.

There are no phases. No evaluations. No second chances within the same account. You either hit the target and meet the rules, or you don't.

Important: Once the 4-hour timer expires, the account is closed automatically regardless of your result. If you've met all conditions, your payout request is generated automatically at that point. If you haven't met the conditions, the session is over and you may purchase a new HYPERNOVA account to try again. Even if you hit the profit target early, the account remains active until the full 4 hours have passed.

Risk Rules Explained

Daily Drawdown: 2%

Maximum loss permitted within your 4-hour trading window. Calculated from your starting balance at the beginning of the session. If your equity drops by more than 2% at any point, the account is in hard breach.

Nonstop Dynamic Risk Shield™: 3%

HYPERNOVA uses the Nonstop Dynamic Risk Shield™, a 3% trailing drawdown based on your equity high-water mark. This version is different from the standard Dynamic Risk Shield™ used in other programs. It never locks, never freezes, and never resets. It always follows your equity upward.

How it works: it starts at 3% below your initial balance and trails upward every time your equity reaches a new high. If your equity falls below the current floor at any point, it's a hard breach.

Practical example on a $10,000 account:

$10,200 (drop)

BREACH

Below $10,379

This is more aggressive than the standard Dynamic Risk Shield™. Because the floor never locks at your initial balance, large equity swings can catch you off guard. In a 4-hour window, this means every pip counts. Plan your risk carefully.


Max Single Trade Loss: 1%

No single trade idea may lose more than 1% of your account equity. A trade idea includes all positions on the same instrument in the same direction. Splitting one large position into multiple smaller entries does not bypass this rule. Violating this rule results in hard breach.

Best Trade Rule: 15%

No single trade may represent more than 15% of your total profit at the end of the 4-hour period. This rule ensures your result is built on consistent execution, not a single lucky spike.

Example: if you finish with $200 profit (2% on a $10,000 account), the maximum allowed profit from your best trade is $30. If one trade made $60, that's 30% of your total profit, which violates the rule.

Practical implication: with a 2% target and 15% best trade rule, you need approximately 7 or more meaningful winning trades to pass.


Minimum Trades: 7

You must complete at least 7 trades during your 4-hour window to be eligible for payout.


The 4-Hour Timer

This is the defining feature of HYPERNOVA. Your clock starts the moment your first trade is opened and runs for exactly 4 hours.

When the timer expires, the account is permanently closed. There is no extension, no pause, and no rollover. Whatever your result is at that point is your final result.

When the timer expires, your account is reviewed automatically. If all payout conditions have been met, your payout request is processed at that point. If the conditions haven't been met, the session is over. Even if you meet every condition within the first hour, you must wait for the full 4-hour window to close before the payout process begins.


Payout

HYPERNOVA does not use the standard Upcomers payout structure. There are no tiered payout limits, no progression system, and no cap on what you can withdraw.

If you meet all conditions, you receive 99% of your net profit. One payout, no restrictions.

To request a payout, all of the following must be true:

  • You have achieved a minimum of 2% net profit

  • You have completed at least 7 trades

  • You have respected the Best Trade rule (no single trade above 15% of total profit)

  • You have not violated any hard risk rules (daily drawdown, Nonstop Dynamic Risk Shield™, single trade loss)

  • You have not used any prohibited trading strategies

  • All positions are closed


Trading Conditions

News trading is allowed. You may open or close positions around economic releases. However, news straddling or any execution designed to exploit price gaps around announcements is not permitted.

Overnight holding is not applicable given the 4-hour window, but positions may remain open for the full duration of your session.

Weekend holding is allowed for instruments that trade through the weekend, such as crypto. For markets that close for the weekend, positions may close automatically if the market session ends before your 4 hours are up.


Prohibited Practices

The following strategies and behaviors are not permitted:

Tick scalping (trades held under 2 minutes). Expert Advisors (EAs). One-sided bets or gambling-style all-in positions. Martingale strategies. Grid trading systems. Copy trading between unrelated accounts. Reverse trading and group hedging. Group copying or account management. Exploiting system glitches or platform inefficiencies. News straddling (bracket orders around news events).


Breach Conditions

The following result in immediate account termination:

  • Equity drops below the Nonstop Dynamic Risk Shield™ floor (3%)

  • Daily loss exceeds 2%

  • Single trade loss exceeds 1%

  • Prohibited trading strategy detected

  • 4-hour timer expires (account closes automatically)

If breach occurs, the account is terminated with no further access. You may purchase a new HYPERNOVA account at any time.

Common Questions

What's the profit target? 2% net profit within 4 hours.

Is there a payout cap? No. HYPERNOVA does not use the standard payout structure. There are no tiered limits. You receive 99% of your net profit with no cap.

What happens when the 4-hour timer runs out? The account is permanently closed and your results are reviewed automatically. If you've met all conditions, your payout request is generated at that point. If not, the session is over and you can purchase a new account. You cannot request a payout before the 4 hours are up, even if you've already hit the target.

Can I pause the timer? No. The 4-hour clock runs continuously from your first trade until it expires.

What breaches my account? Exceeding the 2% daily drawdown, falling below the Nonstop Dynamic Risk Shield™, exceeding 1% on a single trade, or using a prohibited strategy.

Can I trade news? Yes. News trading is allowed, but news straddling (bracket orders around events) is not.

What's my profit split? 99%. You keep almost everything.

Can I buy another HYPERNOVA if I fail? Yes. You can purchase a new account at any time.

What's the difference between HYPERNOVA and SUPERNOVA? Both are instant funding programs with similar rules. SUPERNOVA gives you 24 hours and requires a 3% profit target. HYPERNOVA gives you 4 hours and requires a 2% profit target. All other rules are identical.
