Is it safe?
PnLTrack uses your Bybit key only to read trade history, balances and market data — never to trade, withdraw or transfer. Keys are stored encrypted with AES-256-GCM, using a separate encryption key derived for each user. A read-only key is all PnLTrack needs.
Bybit: frequently asked questions
Can I journal both Bybit futures and spot?
Yes. Each connection covers one market, so add your key once with FUTURES and once with SPOT. Every connection counts toward your plan’s exchange limit: 1 on FREE, up to 10 on TRADER.
Which permissions should the Bybit API key have?
Read-only. PnLTrack only reads trade history, balances and market data — it never trades, withdraws or transfers, so there is no reason to grant more.
Are Bybit fees and funding included?
Yes. Every position carries its fees, and futures positions also carry funding. Both are counted separately from the result, so you can see what trading itself costs.
Do I need to keep PnLTrack open for trades to sync?
No. Once the key is connected, sync runs on its own about every minute — new Bybit trades are waiting in the journal the next time you open it.
