Connecting to ByBit

This instruction serves as a guide for connecting the ByBit exchange to the ATAS platform. 

If you don't have an account yet, you can register on the exchange at the following link:

https://www.bybit.com/ 

To trade through ATAS, you need to activate the one-way position mode. Hedging mode is not available in ATAS. You can change the position mode on the exchange in the chart settings:

1. To connect your account in ATAS, you need to create an API key. You can do this in your personal account by following this link: https://www.bybit.com/app/user/api-management

2. API limitations and settings on the exchange for successful connection in ATAS:

3. Connect your account using the generated keys in ATAS. To do this, in the platform's main window, click on Connections - Add - Bybit, and then click the Next button.

Next, a window will open for you to sign the agreement:

OCO (one cancels other) orders for connecting ByBit are emulated locally on your computer. This means that the platform must be connected to your broker for OCO orders to function properly. If you are disconnected and one of the OCO orders gets filled, the rest of the orders in that group WILL NOT be canceled!

4. Setting up the connection in ATAS

• API key, Secret key - copy and paste the keys generated on the website.
• Use test environment - must be activated if you connect a testnet account.
• Use alternative server - alternative connection server. This function can be activated if there are errors when trying to connect with a regular connection.
• Connection name - the displayed name of the connection in the list of connections.
• Portfolio name - a name for the portfolio to distinguish portfolios from multiple simultaneous connections (can be omitted).
• Portfolio name - the name of the trading account (can be left by default)
• Request timeout - the maximum time that will be waited for receiving data through the connector. If no response is received after the specified time, an error will be displayed. Can be left by default.
