How to change display currency on Bybit? (App settings)

Accessing Account Settings in Bybit App

1. Open the Bybit mobile application and ensure you are logged into your account.

2. Tap the profile icon located in the top-right corner of the home screen.

3. Select Settings from the dropdown menu to enter the configuration interface.

4. Scroll down and choose Account Settings to view personal and display preferences.

5. Locate the section labeled Display Currency — this is where currency formatting for balances and order values is managed.

Navigating the Display Currency Menu

1. Within Account Settings, tap on Display Currency to open the available fiat and crypto options.

2. The app presents a scrollable list including USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, KRW, SGD, HKD, and several stablecoin denominations like USDT and USDC.

3. Each option displays its corresponding symbol, name, and current exchange rate relative to USDT as a reference point.

4. Tapping any listed currency immediately applies it across all relevant screens: wallet balance, trade order preview, PnL summary, and position details.

5. No confirmation prompt appears — the change takes effect instantly upon selection.

Impact on Trading Interface Elements

1. After selecting a new display currency, the main wallet page shows total equity converted using real-time mid-market rates sourced from Bybit’s internal pricing engine.

2. Order entry panels reflect the chosen currency when displaying estimated margin, leverage impact, and liquidation price calculations.

3. Futures position cards update profit/loss figures to match the selected unit, recalculating unrealized PnL based on current mark price and entry price differentials.

4. Historical transaction records retain original trade settlement currency but display value equivalents next to each entry in the newly selected format.

5. Margin call and maintenance margin thresholds adjust dynamically to preserve proportional risk exposure regardless of display choice.

Limitations and Behavioral Notes

1. Changing display currency does not affect actual fund settlement — all deposits, withdrawals, and contract settlements occur exclusively in the underlying asset’s native denomination.

2. Leverage settings, fee tiers, and funding rate accruals remain unchanged and continue operating in USDT or the base pair’s quote currency.

3. Some localized regulatory interfaces may restrict certain fiat options depending on jurisdictional compliance requirements tied to the user’s KYC status.

4. Real-time conversion relies on Bybit’s aggregated liquidity feeds; minor discrepancies may appear compared to external exchange rate services during high volatility periods.

5. Switching back and forth between currencies triggers immediate UI refreshes without requiring app restart or session re-authentication.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does changing display currency affect my trading fees?A: No. Trading fees are calculated and deducted in the settlement currency of the instrument — display currency only alters visual representation.

Q: Can I set different display currencies for spot and derivatives accounts?A: No. Bybit enforces a single global display currency setting that applies uniformly across all product modules within the same account.

Q: Why does my balance show a slightly different value after switching to EUR?A: The displayed amount reflects live conversion using Bybit’s internal FX rate feed, which may differ from interbank or retail bank rates due to spread inclusion and aggregation methodology.

Q: Is the display currency setting synced across web and mobile platforms?A: Yes. The preference persists across devices and sessions once updated via the mobile app or web interface.
