Spot trading on Bybit EU allows you to buy and sell supported cryptocurrencies on the Spot market using the available funds in your account. This guide shows you how to close a Spot trade by placing a Sell order in the Bybit EU App or on the website.
Key Takeaways:
You can close a Spot trade by selling your currency, using either a Market order (executes at the best available price) or a Limit order (executes only at your selected price).
You can close a trade partially (sell a portion) or fully (sell 100%), depending upon your trading goal.
If you’re using Spot Margin, selling reduces your exposure, but any borrowed amounts and fees still need to be repaid.
A Market order sells your asset immediately at the best available price. The final fill price may differ slightly from the last displayed price, due to liquidity and volatility.
Step 1: Go to Trade → Spot.
Step 2: Choose your preferred trading pair on the left side of the page by hovering your cursor over the drop-down menu.
Step 3: Switch to Sell → Market.
Step 4: Enter the quantity or choose a percentage, then click on Sell.
Step 1: After opening the App, tap on Trade in the bottom menu. You’ll be taken to your trading page with the Spot section activated by default.
Step 2: Tap on Sell to place your order. You’ll be taken to the Spot order screen to enter order details and manage your orders.
Step 3: Select Market, enter your order value (or use the slider to choose a percentage), then tap on Sell.
A Limit order lets you set the exact price at which you want to sell your asset. Your Sell order will only execute if the market reaches your selected price (or better), so it may remain open until it’s filled or you cancel it.
Step 1: Go to Trade → Spot.
Step 2: Select the trading pair.
Step 3: Switch to Sell → Limit.
Step 4: Enter the price and quantity, or choose a percentage, then click on Sell.
Step 1: After opening the App, tap on Trade in the bottom menu. You’ll be taken to your trading page with the Spot section activated by default.
Step 2: Tap on Sell to place your order. You’ll be directed to the Spot order screen, where you can enter order details, review open orders and cancel unfilled orders.
Step 3: Switch to Sell and select Limit. Set your target Price and amount (or use the slider), then tap on Sell to place your order.
Partial vs. full closure
Sell a portion of your asset to take partial profit.
Sell 100% to fully close the trade.
When closing a Spot Margin Trading position, selling the asset reduces or closes your exposure, but borrowed funds must still be repaid.
Key points to note:
Margin trades use borrowed assets secured by collateral.
After closing the position, repayment of borrowed funds and fees is required.
If the Maintenance Margin Rate (MMR) reaches or exceeds 100%, liquidation may occur before manual closure.
Ensure all margin borrowings are settled before turning off Margin Trading.
Step 1: Make sure Margin is enabled, then switch to Sell and select Market. Choose 100% (or drag the slider to 100%) to sell your full position, then tap on Margin Sell to close your exposure.
Step 2: Click on Assets → Unified Trading Account to view any negative (borrowed) balances and go to Borrow/Repay.
Step 3: On the UTA page, disable Hide assets < $1 if needed, then click on the borrowed asset (negative balance) → ellipses (⋯) → Repay.
Step 4: In the Repayment window, select Total liabilities → Max → Repay. If your balance is insufficient, available assets may be used to cover the repayment, based on the selected method/order.
Step 5: Review the Repayment Coin details, then click on Confirm to complete the repayment.
Step 1: On the Spot trading screen, toggle Margin ON. Choose an order type, set the amount (manually or with the slider), then tap on Margin Sell to close your position.
Step 2: After placing your Sell order, tap on Assets → Unified Trading to view your margin details, and go to Borrow/Repay to repay any outstanding borrowings and fees/interest.
Step 3: On the Unified Trading screen, locate the asset with a negative balance (i.e., a borrowed amount), then tap it to open the details page for repayment. If you don’t see it, make sure that Hide assets < $1 isn’t enabled.
Step 4: After selecting the asset with the negative balance, you’ll see the asset details screen. Tap on Repayment in the bottom-right corner to start repaying the outstanding borrowed amount.
Step 5: On the Repayment screen, review the borrowed amount and the repayment coin selection. Tap on Repay to settle the outstanding borrowing (including any applicable fees/interest).
Click on Orders in the top navigation bar, then select Unified Trading Order from the drop-down menu to view your UTA order records.
On the Spot Orders page, you can review all your Spot and Margin orders and use the filters at the top (e.g., Market, Trade Type, Order Type, Direction and date range) to sort and narrow your results.
Click on Assets to open Assets Overview, and confirm your updated balances (e.g., Funding and Unified Trading) after the Sell order fills.
When you’re ready to exit a Spot trade on Bybit EU, sell your crypto using a Market order or a Limit order. After the order fills, check Order History and your updated balances in Assets. If you used Spot Margin, repay any borrowed amount plus applicable fees/interest in your Unified Trading Account (UTA).
