Hi Jon, We hear your frustration — but we want to clear this up for anyone reading. A hard breach on a funded account only happens when the equity drops below the daily or overall drawdown limit. Slippage alone cannot close an account unless the trade already exceeded the allowed risk. This is a standard rule across every prop firm, and it’s clearly displayed on our Challenge page and FAQ before purchase. We also checked our system and didn’t find any support tickets from you. If something genuinely went wrong on execution, we need the trade ID to investigate — we can’t resolve or review anything without you reaching out. We’re more than happy to look into your case properly. Please email [email protected] with: • Your account number • The trade ID(s) in question • A screenshot of the breach notice If your account was impacted by abnormal execution, our risk team will review it immediately. We don’t “want traders to fail” — we pay out daily, and profitable traders are the backbone of Hydra. But risk rules apply to everyone, and violations will always trigger an automatic closure. Reach out so we can look into it properly — we’re here to help. — The Hydra Team

Hi Vish, We’ve reviewed your case in detail, so let’s be clear for anyone reading: 🔹 You received your full payout — the $144 was processed without issue. 🔹 After a payout, the account’s max drawdown moves back to the initial balance, which is stated clearly in our FAQs and confirmed by support before every withdrawal. 🔹 By requesting a full withdrawal, you removed all profit buffer — leaving no room for drawdown on the next trade, which is why the account breached. This wasn’t a platform error or “scam” — it was simply the drawdown rule you agreed to at purchase and were reminded of again before payout. Our team even walked you through your exact numbers step-by-step. We understand it’s frustrating to lose an account, but the rules weren’t hidden or unclear. Hydra processes every valid payout, including yours, and we’ll continue to operate with full transparency. — The Hydra Team ⚡

Hi Jen, Appreciate you taking the time to outline your concerns — and thanks for trading with Hydra. Let’s clear up a few points for anyone reading: Chart differences: Gooeytrade uses aggregated institutional liquidity feeds, which can show slight variation from TradingView (which relies on retail data providers). The pricing you see on Gooey is always market-executed, not simulated. Pair labeling: What you’re seeing with XAU/BTC is a display formatting issue within Gooey’s interface — not a data error. The P&L and PV columns pull from separate feeds, which can look mismatched visually but are correct in execution. Volatility: Markets like XAU and BTC are naturally high-volatility assets, especially during overlapping session times. What you experienced wasn’t a system bug but real market movement reflected in real time. That said, our team is already working with Gooeytrade on UI improvements to make chart and column data clearer for traders. Transparency and accuracy are non-negotiable for us. If you’d like us to review your account data directly, just reach out to [email protected] and we’ll take care of it. — The Hydra Team ⚡

Hi Lucas, Appreciate you sharing your experience — and congrats again on securing a payout. That’s always a win in itself. To clarify for future traders reading this: our drawdown policy post-withdrawal is clearly outlined in both our Trader Agreement and FAQ section. Once the first payout is made, the account’s max drawdown moves to the initial balance. Our team also reaches out to confirm with any trader looking to withdraw the max allowed profit to inform them regarding this rule and double check. That said, we take your feedback seriously and will explore how to make this information even more visible during the purchase process. The goal is always full clarity upfront. Thanks again for trading with Hydra, and we wish you continued success wherever you go. — The Hydra Team

Hi Sebastian, We hear your frustration — but let’s set the record straight for anyone reading: 🔹 Hydra doesn’t hide behind vague terms. Our challenge rules are publicly posted, clearly written, and visible before purchase. No fine print. No traps. Funded accounts trade the exact same way as challenges with 0 manipulation. 🔹 We don’t profit off failure — we reward skill. Our business is built on payouts, not disqualifications. In fact, we’re one of the few firms in the industry that honor payouts even if your account is breached. 🔹 Our model is sustainable and built by real traders. We’ve seen the shady side of this space too — which is exactly why we built Hydra differently. If you've had a direct issue with our platform, we’re happy to review it. But blanket accusations without any specific reference to Hydra aren’t productive — and they’re not accurate. We’ll keep doing what we do best: fast payouts, clear rules, real opportunity. — The Hydra Team

Bryan — certified first-mover. You didn’t just get funded… you locked in the very first Instant Crypto payout in Hydra history. $2,325 in the bag in under a week. Legendary stuff. Appreciate you dropping a 5-star without even being asked — that kind of energy doesn’t go unnoticed. We already featured your payout on our socials, and we hope it’s just the first of many. And yep, we get it — 33% consistency is no joke, especially in crypto. But that’s what makes the wins clean. Respect for trading it right. Keep stacking. — The Hydra Team ⚡

Hi Sam, We appreciate your acknowledgment of the positive aspects of your experience — including the payout process, pricing, and overall challenge structure. However, we need to be fully transparent for the sake of other traders reading this. Your account was closed due to repeated violations of our Prohibited Trading Practices policy — specifically for gambling-style behavior and excessive risk-taking that breached both margin and risk management thresholds. To be clear: Your margin utilization reached as high as 86%, consistently. You were risking 30–60% of your account on individual trades or clusters of positions. With drawdown limits of 5% daily / 9% overall, you were trading at 6–12x the allowable risk. Our policy explicitly prohibits “all-in” or coinflip-style trading, and you agreed to those terms when joining. We’re not looking for traders who hit one home run and blow out—we’re building a long-term ecosystem for disciplined, consistent traders. You were paid your full profit split ($13.6K) on time, with no issues. But after reviewing your trade history and risk profile, our risk team determined this type of activity is unsustainable and incompatible with Hydra’s model. We stand by that decision, and we wish you the best with other firms aligned with your approach. — The Hydra Team
