How does HEYBIT work?

Strategy to make the most of the market

HEYBIT’s crypto trading bot is based on quant strategy. UPRISE strives to provide easy access to alpha (active return) through HEYBIT.

With its new strategy ForeFront(FF) UPRISE wants to seek the alpha at the very front of the bull markets. The FF strategy also takes form of “performance fees” where fees for using HEYBIT are only charged if there is profit. The charge for HEYBIT is 25% of the profit every 180 day period deducted automatically from the account. But if there is no profit, then no fee is charged at the 180th day.
