Cross Instrument Policy

This article explains Hyperticks’ cross-instrument trading rules, clarifying position limits, prohibited instrument mixing, and consequences of attempting to bypass contract scaling rules to ensure fair and compliant trading behavior.

At Hyperticks, strict adherence to trading rules is essential for maintaining a compliant, risk-managed, and professional environment. These rules are designed to ensure fairness among all traders while protecting the integrity of the evaluation and funded programs.

Please review and follow the guidelines below:


1. Single Instrument Limit

Orders that exceed the allowed contract size for a single instrument will be automatically rejected.

  • Example: If your plan allows a maximum of 2 contracts on NQ, attempting to enter 3 contracts will result in an automatic rejection.


2. Cross-Instrument Trading

Mixing different instruments in order to bypass the position limit is not permitted, even if the system allows execution.

  • Example: If your plan allows 2 minis or 20 micros, entering 2 minis AND 20 micros at the same time would technically execute, but this is a rule violation.


3. Intentional Rule Bypass

Any deliberate attempt to sidestep position scaling rules — such as splitting orders across multiple instruments to exceed limits — will be flagged as a breach and handled accordingly.

Example: PRO 50k Account

  • Scaling plan begins with either 1 minis or 5 micros.

  • Entering 2 minis = automatically rejected.

  • Entering 1 mini + 5 micros = may execute but is not allowed and will result in violation.


If you are uncertain about a rule or how it applies to your account, please reach out to the Hyperticks Support Team before placing trades.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping us maintain a fair and compliant trading environment.
