Upcoming Feature: Auto-Repay Mode for Spot Margin Trading

Dear Traders,

We are pleased to announce the upcoming launch of the Auto-Repay Mode for Spot Margin trading, along with two new API endpoints that allow users to configure and query this feature.

New Endpoints:
1. Set Auto-Repay Mode
POST /v5/spot-margin-trade/set-auto-repay-mode
Configure whether to enable or disable Auto-Repay for a specific currency.
Documentation: https://bybit-exchange.github.io/docs/v5/spot-margin-uta/set-auto-repay-mode

2. Get Auto-Repay Mode
GET /v5/spot-margin-trade/get-auto-repay-mode
Check whether Auto-Repay is currently enabled for Spot Margin trading.
Documentation: https://bybit-exchange.github.io/docs/v5/spot-margin-uta/get-auto-repay-mode

Feature Behavior:
When Auto-Repay is enabled for a specific currency, the system will automatically execute repayments without asset conversion at 00 and 30 minutes every hour.

Transfers or Spot trading activities (buy/sell) will increase the user’s spot available balance but will not trigger immediate repayment.

Effective Time:
Testnet: Already live
Mainnet: January 6, 2026

Thank you for your continued support.

Upcoming Update: Fee Rate Endpoint Infrastructure Optimization

Dear Users,

To improve system stability and reduce the load, we will update the Fee Rate Query API underlying service.

GET /v5/account/fee-rate
Documentation: https://bybit-exchange.github.io/docs/v5/account/fee-rate

Effective Date: January 20, 2026

After the switchover, the fee rate query will no longer be returned in real-time. As a result, responses may experience a slight additional latency of approximately 10–20 ms. Other functionalities and response structures remain unchanged.

This change helps enhance overall system performance, stability, and reliability for all users.

If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to contact us.

The Bybit Team

Dear Users,

Documentation:
https://bybit-exchange.github.io/docs/v5/spot-margin-uta/set-auto-repay-mode

Effective Date:
January 8, 2026, 02:00 (UTC)

We recommend planning your integration and using this endpoint after the effective date. Please adjust your implementation accordingly.

If you have any questions or feedback, please feel free to contact us.

Dear Institutional Clients,

To further enhance the robustness and market adaptability of the trading system and optimize the risk control effectiveness of the spot trading price limit mechanism, our exchange plans to adjust the update rules for the price limit parameters in the current spot trading price limit mechanism. The relevant matters are hereby announced as follows:

1. Details of the Adjustment
Effective from the date of implementation, the parameters X and Y in the spot trading price limit mechanism will be adjusted as follows:

Update Frequency: Once per week
Update Time: Every Monday at 06:00 UTC
Update Method: Automatically updated by the system, no manual intervention required


2. Update Logic Explanation
The update of the spot trading price limit parameters will be dynamically calculated based on the comprehensive indicator score of the corresponding trading pair over the past 30 days. The comprehensive indicator score will be evaluated using multi-dimensional market data (including but not limited to liquidity, volatility, and trading activity) to ensure that the price limit parameters more accurately and promptly reflect market conditions.

3. Parameter Details Inquiry
For specific price limit parameters of each trading pair and related information, please refer to the following official page:
👉 https://www.bybit.com/en/announcement-info/spot-trading-rules/
You can obtain the price limit parameter values via the following API:
👉 https://bybit-exchange.github.io/docs/v5/market/instrument
You can obtain the highest bid price and lowest ask price via the following API:
👉 https://bybit-exchange.github.io/docs/v5/market/order-price-limit

4. Impact Explanation
This adjustment only involves the update mechanism of the spot trading price limit parameters and does not affect the existing trading rules or matching logic. Institutional clients are advised to evaluate and adjust their systems and risk control strategies accordingly in advance.
If you have any questions about this adjustment, please feel free to contact us through official channels. Thank you for your continued support and trust in our exchange.
Notice hereby given.

Dear Traders,

Bybit plans to list XAUUSDT and XAGUSDT Perpetual Contracts.

Before trading these contracts, you are required to sign the relevant trading agreement. You may complete the agreement via Web/App once the contracts are officially listed. However, to ensure you can start trading immediately when the contracts go live, we recommend completing the agreement in advance via the Open API.

Agreement Signing API:
https://bybit-exchange.github.io/docs/v5/user/sign-agreement
Note: Only the master account is required to sign the agreement. Once completed, all subaccounts will be eligible to trade.

Dear Traders,

Delta Neutral Mode is now available.

Delta Neutral Mode is designed to enhance the trading experience for users running delta-neutral strategies.
