How to View Trading History on Bybit? (Account Statements)

Accessing Account Statements on Bybit

1. Log in to your Bybit account using verified credentials and two-factor authentication for security compliance.

2. Navigate to the top-right corner of the dashboard and click the user profile icon to open the dropdown menu.

3. Select Account Overview from the list, then locate and click the Statements tab on the left sidebar.

4. Choose the desired statement type—Spot, Futures, Options, or Derivatives—and set the date range using the calendar picker.

5. Click Generate Statement to retrieve a consolidated PDF report containing all relevant transaction records within the selected period.

Understanding Transaction Filters and Export Options

1. Within the Statements section, users can apply filters by asset, order type (e.g., market, limit), status (filled, canceled), and execution time.

2. The system displays real-time updates without requiring manual refresh, ensuring that newly settled trades appear instantly in the filtered view.

3. Export functionality supports both CSV and PDF formats, with CSV files preserving raw trade IDs, timestamps, price levels, fee deductions, and settlement currencies.

4. Each exported file includes a unique hash signature embedded in its metadata, enabling verification of data integrity against on-chain settlement logs.

5. Users may download up to 90 days of historical data per request; requests exceeding this window require sequential batch submissions.

Interpreting Key Fields in Trade Records

1. Order ID serves as the immutable reference for dispute resolution and reconciliation with third-party analytics tools.

2. Trade ID corresponds to individual fills within a single order, especially critical for partial executions across multiple price levels.

3. Fee Currency indicates whether fees were deducted in the base asset, quote asset, or BYB tokens, depending on the user’s fee tier and rebate settings.

4. PNL Realized reflects net profit or loss after accounting for entry/exit prices, funding accruals, and liquidation penalties where applicable.

5. Order Type Tag distinguishes between post-only, reduce-only, and close-only instructions, which directly impact margin utilization and position sizing logic.

Reconciling Discrepancies in Historical Data

1. Cross-check timestamps against UTC+0 to avoid misalignment caused by local timezone rendering in browser interfaces.

2. Verify that leverage settings applied during order placement match those reflected in the statement’s Leverage Used column for each futures trade.

3. Confirm that fee discounts from VIP tiers are correctly applied by comparing displayed fee rates against current tier thresholds published in Bybit’s official fee schedule.

4. Identify missing entries by searching for specific Order IDs via the Order History tab, as some trades may not appear in statements if they remain unfilled or rejected.

5. Use the API Key Activity Log to trace whether automated strategies triggered orders outside manual interface usage, potentially explaining unrecorded activity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I view trading history older than 90 days?A: Yes. Bybit retains full trade records for 180 days. To access beyond 90 days, generate multiple statements with overlapping date ranges and merge them manually using spreadsheet tools.

Q: Why does my realized PNL differ from what appears in my wallet balance change?A: Wallet balance changes include deposits, withdrawals, funding payments, and insurance fund contributions. Realized PNL only accounts for closed positions and excludes non-trade-related movements.

Q: Are sub-account trading histories included in the main account statement?A: No. Sub-accounts maintain independent statement archives. You must log into each sub-account separately and generate statements individually.

Q: Does Bybit provide tax-ready reports with cost basis calculations?A: Not natively. Bybit supplies raw transaction exports compliant with standard accounting formats. Third-party tax software like Koinly or CoinTracker must be used to compute FIFO/LIFO cost basis and jurisdiction-specific reporting templates.
