OK, so I've staked 4291 Hyper for 8 days, states it's Minting now...I've noticed that you should use 4500 minimal, does a chart exist showing how long to wait and how many coins you will average in staking? Basically, I'm confused. 
Best place to look is at hyp.presstab.pw, it will give you a good example of what is currently staking.  Look at the weight chart and see what the typical weight staking is (looks like 150k is typical). Weight is approximately equal to the age of your coin block multiplied by the amount of your coin block.
When you click into an individual block (click a block hash or height, or go to the block page) you will see the individual stats on that stake.

Also make sure you are talking about HYP/HyperStake not HYPER/HyperCoin.
