Sounds like you may have a fundamental misunderstanding. In Hi-Lo, your advantage increases with the excess of high cards to low cards. You push out your Max bet whenever you feel the risk to your bankroll is worth it. A 1:1 ratio of remaining high to low cards would give you a running count (and True Count) of zero, implying you are playing without any additonal edge over the house edge.. You can use CVCX to generate the optimal bet for your count system, bank roll, betting unit and ramp, and it will show you where your max bet would be, as you say, "triggered".
