Accessing Your Bybit Account Dashboard

To locate your futures trade history on Bybit, you must first log into your account. Navigate to the official Bybit website or open the mobile app. Enter your registered email and password in the login fields. If two-factor authentication (2FA) is enabled, input the code from your authenticator app. Once logged in, you’ll land on the Bybit dashboard, which serves as the central hub for all trading activities. This interface displays your account balance, open positions, and quick access to various trading tools. Ensure you're on the correct account type—futures—as spot and derivatives histories are stored separately.

Navigating to the Futures Section

From the dashboard, locate the main navigation bar, typically found at the top or left side of the screen. Click on the "Derivatives" tab, then select "USDT Perpetual" or "Inverse Perpetual", depending on the contract type you traded. This action redirects you to the futures trading interface. At the top of this page, confirm that the correct trading pair is selected—for example, BTCUSDT or ETHUSD. This step is crucial because trade history is segmented by contract type and symbol. If you’ve traded multiple pairs, you’ll need to check each individually to retrieve a complete record.

Finding the Trade History Tab

Within the futures trading interface, look for a set of tabs usually located below the chart area. These may include “Open Orders”, “Order History”, and “Trade History”. Click on “Trade History” to display all executed trades for the selected contract. This tab shows critical details such as trade ID, symbol, side (Buy/Sell), price, quantity, fee, and timestamp. You can filter results by date range using the calendar icon in the top-right corner of the table. Selecting a specific date ensures you only view trades executed within that period—ideal for tax reporting or performance tracking.

Exporting Trade History for Record Keeping

Bybit allows users to export trade history in CSV format for offline analysis. To do this:

• Click the “Export” button located beside the date filter in the Trade History tab
• Choose the desired time range (e.g., last 7 days, last 30 days, or custom)
• Confirm the download prompt in your browser
• Save the file to a secure location on your device
  This exported file includes all columns visible in the web interface, enabling you to sort, filter, or import into spreadsheet software like Excel or Google Sheets. Note that each contract type must be exported separately—a BTCUSDT trade history file will not include ETHUSD trades.
  

  Understanding Key Trade History Fields

  
  When reviewing your trade history, it’s essential to understand each column:
• Symbol: The trading pair involved (e.g., BTCUSDT)
• Side: Whether the trade was a Buy or Sell
• Price: The execution price per contract
• Qty: Quantity of contracts traded
• Fee: Transaction fee charged, denominated in the fee currency (e.g., USDT or BTC)
• Time: Exact timestamp in UTC format
  Misinterpreting these fields can lead to errors in profit/loss calculations. For example, “Fee” is always a negative value, indicating a deduction from your wallet. If you see a positive fee, it may be a rebate from being a market maker—check Bybit’s fee structure to confirm.
  

  Using API for Advanced Users

  
  For developers or users managing high-frequency trading data, Bybit offers a RESTful API to programmatically retrieve trade history. First, generate an API key from your account settings under the “API Management” section. Ensure the key has “Read-Only” permissions for security. Then use the endpoint:
  GET /v5/order/history
  Include parameters such as category=future, symbol=BTCUSDT, and startTime/endTime in Unix timestamp format. The JSON response includes all fields from the web interface plus internal identifiers like orderId and execType. This method is ideal for integrating Bybit data into third-party portfolio trackers or custom analytics tools.

  Frequently Asked Questions

  Q: Can I see my trade history if I deleted my Bybit app?
  
  Yes. Trade history is stored server-side, not locally on your device. Simply reinstall the app or access the web platform, log in, and follow the steps above to retrieve your data.

  Q: Why are some trades missing from my history?
  
  Check that you’re viewing the correct contract type (USDT vs Inverse) and date range. Also, trades older than 90 days may not appear unless you export them via the web interface or API.

  Q: Does Bybit show realized P&L in the trade history?
  
  No. The trade history only shows execution details. Realized P&L must be calculated manually using entry and exit prices or viewed in the “Positions” tab under “Closed P&L”.

  Q: Is trade history available for expired futures contracts?
  
  Yes. Even after a futures contract expires, its trade history remains accessible under the same symbol in the Trade History tab. Select the expired contract from the symbol dropdown if it’s not visible by default.
