Important information
A few important points about how HFM's Strategy Following system works — read these before you subscribe.
| Topic | What you need to know |
|---|---|
| Only new trades are copied | Trades that were already open on the master account before you subscribed will not be copied. Only trades opened after your subscription starts will appear in your Strategy account. |
| Use the strategy for Ratio | HFM automatically calculates your lot sizes as a ratio of your equity vs the master account equity. A larger account relative to the master copies larger lots. A smaller account copies smaller lots. This keeps your risk proportional. |
| Minimum lot size | The minimum strategy trade size is 0.01 lot, subject to your approval and account balance. Very small accounts may not use the strategy for every trade if the calculated lot size rounds below 0.01. |
| Performance fee | A performance fee is payable only when your Strategy account is in profit. The fee is a percentage of your net gains. No profit = no fee. The exact percentage is shown on the strategy page before you subscribe. |
| No admin fees | HFM does not charge any administrative fees for joining Strategy Following. The only charge is the performance fee when you are in profit. |
| Unsubscribeing with open trades | If you unsubscribe while trades are open, all open copied positions will be closed immediately at market price. If the market is closed for a symbol, you cannot unsubscribe until it reopens — or you can close the positions manually first. |
| Risk score | Each strategy provider on HFM is given a risk score from 1 to 5 based on volatility, drawdown, and trading activity. A score of 1 is the most stable; 5 is the highest risk. Review the Profit Lounge risk score on the strategy page before subscribing. |
| Available platforms | HFM Strategy Following is available on MT4, MT5, and the HFM Mobile Trading App. You can monitor and manage your Strategy account from any device, anywhere. |
