Bybit Trading Bot, Without the Code
Build a strategy from menus, give it a budget, test it on paper, then let it trade spot or futures on your own Bybit account.
Bybit made its name on derivatives, and its USDT perpetuals are where many automated strategies live. It also runs a full spot market, so the same account can host a slow spot automation and a faster futures one side by side.
TradeFIQ connects to Bybit spot and Bybit linear (USDT) perpetuals. Your automations trade on your own Bybit account using an API key you control, with a hard budget per automation so a futures strategy can't quietly eat your whole balance.
What you can automate on Bybit
- Spot or futures. Each Bybit connection trades one market; add both if you use both.
- Indicator strategies without code. RSI, MACD, moving average crossovers, Bollinger Bands, Stochastic, ADX, Supertrend, Ichimoku, Smart Money Concepts, candlestick patterns and more, combined with rules like "crosses above" or "is below".
- Your schedule. Every 15 minutes, hourly, daily at 9am or once a week, in your own timezone.
- Risk rules on every trade. Stop-loss, take-profit and trailing stops, set once in a risk profile and reused.
- A hard budget. Give an automation $200 of a $5,000 balance and it trades with $200. That's the most it can lose.
How to connect Bybit to TradeFIQ
- On Bybit, go to Profile → API → Create New Key → System-generated API Keys.
- Give the key trading permission for the market you want (spot or futures). Leave withdrawals off.
- In TradeFIQ, open Settings → Exchanges → Add exchange, choose Bybit, pick spot or futures and paste the key and secret.
- TradeFIQ checks the key with Bybit straight away, so a typo shows up now rather than at your first trade.
Bybit tips for automated trading
- Pick System-generated API Keys, then grant Read-Write with Orders and Positions (Contract) and/or Trade (Spot). No withdrawal or transfer permissions.
- Bybit keys without an IP restriction expire after a period of inactivity. Add an IP restriction or keep the key in use so it doesn't lapse under a running automation.
- Futures leverage multiplies both sides. Start the automation's budget small and let the capital stop do its job.
Why automate Bybit with TradeFIQ
Most bots on Bybit get one setting wrong in the same way: they can see the whole balance. TradeFIQ gives every automation its own capital budget, sizes trades from it, and closes a position before it can lose more than the budget allows. If the budget runs out, the automation stops and tells you why.
Changed your mind about a stop-loss while a trade is open? Edit the running trade's rules without closing the position. Not sure a strategy works yet? Run it with paper money on live prices or backtest it first, then switch the same automation to live.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to connect Bybit to a trading bot?
TradeFIQ only needs an API key with trading permission. Never enable withdrawals: without that permission, no one using the key can move funds off your Bybit account. Your API secret is encrypted at rest, and you can delete the key on Bybit at any time to cut access instantly.
Can I trade futures on Bybit with TradeFIQ?
Yes. Each Bybit connection is either spot or futures (perpetual swaps). Add one of each if you want both, and pick which one an automation trades on.
Do I need to code to build a Bybit trading bot?
No. Strategies are built from menus: pick indicators, set entry and exit rules, choose stop-loss and take-profit, and set a schedule. No scripts, no Pine, no Python.
Can I test a Bybit strategy without risking money?
Yes. Paper trading runs the same automation on live market prices with paper money, and backtesting replays it on historical data. Switch to live with one tap when you trust it.
How much of my Bybit balance will the bot use?
Only what you give it. Every automation has its own capital budget, sizes each trade from it, and is stopped if it's ever used up. The rest of your Bybit balance is never touched.
