Measured equity history
Recorded directly from the chronological test ledger.
Shown in the backtest's native equity or cumulative P&L units. It is not scaled to an investment amount because the published artifact does not provide a defensible capital denominator.

Common mistakeGrabbing a random EA off a forum. Only the file from this page matches the verdict.
Open and fund a Hyperliquid account
10 minOpen Hyperliquid (Hyperliquid web/API), then fund it.
Visit Hyperliquid →Informational link. No verified commission relationship is currently active.
Common mistakeFunding more than a max-drawdown event can survive. Size to the worst case, not the average.

Common mistakeForgetting to switch on AutoTrading / "Allow live trading" — the bot sits there doing nothing.
Set the parameters exactly
3 minEnter the validated settings as-is. These are the values the verdict was earned on.
Timeframe Daily rebalance, weekly evaluation Instruments BTC, ETH, SOL (spot long + perp short) Validated window Locked OOS 2024-04 → 2026-06 (115 weekly obs) Risk per trade ≤ 1% of account (fixed-fractional) Starting capital Size so a max-drawdown event stays within your tolerance ⚠ Changing any of these values voids the verdict. You'd be trading an untested configuration.
Common mistakeRetuning parameters "to do better." Any change voids the verdict — you are now trading an untested strategy.
Paper trade for 7 days first
7 daysRun on a demo / paper account until live fills track the validated backtest.
Common mistakeSkipping paper trading. Live slippage and spread always bite harder than the backtest assumed.
Go live, start small
5 minOnly fund the live account once paper trading matches. Begin at minimum size.
Common mistakeGoing live at full size on day one. Scale up only after live behavior is boring and predictable.
Monitor for drift
OngoingA live bot can drift from its validated behavior. Watch drawdown and trade frequency weekly.

Get notified →Questions
Is Funding-Rate Harvest (Round 1) guaranteed to make money on Hyperliquid?
No. The verdict describes a hypothetical backtest under modeling assumptions. Past results do not guarantee future returns, and live costs differ. See the full report on the strategy page.
Does Validated get paid if I open a Hyperliquid account?
No verified commission relationship is currently active for this link. It never changes a verdict — gate thresholds are fixed before any strategy runs.
Can I change the parameters?
You can, but the verdict no longer applies. Every number on this page is the configuration the strategy was validated on. Change one and you're trading something untested.
