If you’re skilled at trading, becoming a Master Trader at Bybit is a way of investing, by which you can promote your trading strategy and earn profit-sharing from Followers who copy your trading strategy.

 

 

 

To apply as a Master Trader, please take note of the following:

1. Please ensure you aren’t currently following a Master Trader, and that you don’t have any existing copy trades. Make sure you have unfollowed all Master Traders and closed any existing positions under any Master Traders.

 

2. You can only apply to be a Master Trader using a Subaccount. Hence, create a new Subaccount or select an existing Subaccount for your Master Trader application. Both the Standard Subaccount and Unified Trading Subaccount are supported. To learn more about the difference between a Standard Account and a Unified Trading Account, please visit here.

 

3. Only Isolated Margin mode or Cross Margin mode is supported for Master Trader Copy Trading.

 

4. Only trades under USDT Perpetual Trading in the Master Trader Subaccount will be copied by your Follower.

 

5. For Master Trader witha standard subaccount (Non-UTA), you will still be able to trade other products such as Spot Trading, and USDC Perpetual Trading, but it will not be copied by your Followers. For Master Trader with Unified Trading Subaccount, trading products other than USDT perpetual will not be supported at the moment.

 

6. Please ensure you have read and acknowledged our Master Trader Agreement in case of any breaches.

 

7. You will need to complete all missions in the Mission Center once your application is completed in order to be featured on the Copy Trading Recommended page.

Master Trader Level Evaluation

After you complete the required tasks and pass the review by Bybit, a rating will be given to you based on your account balance, 30-day cumulative profit, and the maximum drawdown in the last 7 days.

 

Evaluation period: 12AM (midnight) UTC on Saturday to 11:59:59PM UTC on Friday

 

— Level upgrade evaluation: on a weekly basis. The upgrade will take effect on Saturday between 4:30 AM and 5 AM UTC.

— Level downgrade evaluation: on a weekly basis. The downgrade will take effect on Saturday between 4:30 AM and 5 AM UTC.

Example

Trader A’s level changes as follows: 

 

Week 1: Cadet 

Week 2: upgraded to Silver 

Week 3: fails to meet the Silver criteria, but will not be downgraded. In addition, trader A will receive a reminder email on the following Saturday.

Week 4: One of the following situations will occur:

 

• Meet the conditions for the Silver level: The Silver rating is retained.

• Failed to meet conditions for Silver level: The level will be automatically downgraded from Silver to the corresponding level. Please note that it may happen that you drop down more than one level at a time.

 

It should be noted that failing to meet the corresponding requirement for each level will trigger a downgrade. Additionally, if no trades have been made in the last 14 days, an automatic downgrade will occur.
