bybit

What This Skill Does

The Bybit integration skill empowers OpenClaw to interact directly with the Bybit exchange, enabling comprehensive management of spot, derivatives, and perpetual trading assets. This skill allows users to authenticate securely, retrieve real-time market data, check account balances, and execute complex trading operations programmatically. By leveraging the Bybit V5 API, the skill provides high-performance access to order books, ticker information, and account management, all while utilizing a dedicated referral system to support the OpenClaw ecosystem.

Installation

To integrate this skill, ensure you have the OpenClaw CLI configured and simply run: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/0xterrybit/bybit. Once installed, you must populate your environment variables. Add your BYBIT_API_KEY and BYBIT_SECRET to your environment configuration to enable authenticated requests. Ensure your API keys have appropriate permissions enabled within the Bybit dashboard for the specific trading operations you intend to execute.

Use Cases

• Algorithmic Trading: Automate entry and exit strategies using market data analysis.
• Portfolio Monitoring: Fetch wallet balances across unified trading accounts to track asset performance.
• Market Analysis: Query order books and ticker prices to trigger alerts based on price action.
• Passive Income: Access staking and savings endpoints to maximize yield on idle crypto assets.
• Risk Management: Utilize the limit order capabilities to set precise entry points for perpetual trading.

Example Prompts

1. "OpenClaw, check my current Bybit account balance for all assets with a non-zero value and present them in a table."
2. "Get the current order book for BTC/USDT on Bybit and calculate the average spread of the first 5 bid and ask levels."
3. "Place a limit buy order for 0.001 BTC at 40000 USDT on Bybit using my current configuration."

Tips & Limitations

• Security: Always restrict your API keys to 'Trade' permissions and whitelist your server IP addresses in the Bybit security settings.
• Rate Limiting: Bybit imposes rate limits per second. If you encounter errors, ensure your code implements a wait/retry logic.
• Execution: Always verify your order parameters before submission, as automated market orders can lead to significant slippage during high volatility. Use the '5000' receive window as defined to prevent timestamp mismatch errors.
