How to Register for MT5 CFD Account

In order to start trading on Bybit CFD, you will need to create a MT5 CFD account which will have its own account balance. Here is a step-by-step guide to creating and activating your MT5 CFD account.

Step 1: On the Bybit homepage, go to TradFi → Overview to access the CFD homepage. Then, click Apply Now.

Alternatively, you can go directly to one of the available CFD trading pairs pages and click Apply in the order box.

Step 2: Read carefully and accept the Terms and Conditions by ticking the box. Then, click Next.

Step 3: Your account is now created. However, to start trading on CFD, you will need to make a fund transfer to your MT5 CFD account. To do so, click Transfer.

Note: If you would like to make an asset transfer later, simply click Confirm to exit the page.

How to Deposit to MT5 CFD Account

Your funds are now transferred to your MT5 CFD account!

Once your assets are transferred, they will appear on the CFD Trading homepage and you can start trading!

You can make transfers in and out of your MT5 CFD account by clicking Transfer in and Transfer out. To view your transfer history, simply click Funding Log on the MT5 CFD dashboard, or go to Assets → CFD.

Notes:

1. You will not be able to deposit or withdraw funds directly in or out of your MT5 CFD Account, but you will have to perform Transfer In or Out via the MT5 CFD Account Page.
2. BYUSDT transferred into the MT5 CFD account will continue generating yield, with rewards distributed to your Unified Trading Account (UTA).
3. Eligible stablecoin assets such as USDT and BYUSDT will be displayed as part of your USDx Balance for CFD trading purposes.
4. CFD trading profits and losses are always settled in USDT.

How to Switch Account Modes

By default, the user’s MT5 CFD account is set to Zero-Fee mode. Users may switch to Tight-Spread Mode only if they meet the applicable eligibility requirements. Users can determine the current account mode for their MT5 CFD account by checking the Account Mode section on the Account page or on the trading page. For details information about different between Zero-Fee mode and Tight-Spread mode, please refer to here

To be eligible for the switch to the Tight-Spread mode, users must meet the following conditions:

1. Have a minimum cumulative deposit of USD 3,000.
2. No active orders and open positions

Once you have met all requirements to switch to Tight-Spread mode, follow the step-by-step guide below to adjust your account mode settings:

Step 1: Locate the Account Mode section on either the MT5 CFD Account page or the CFD Trading page, then click the arrow next to your current account mode.

Step 2: This will prompt the Account Mode Settings window. Your current mode will be highlighted accordingly. Read all the mode details carefully before proceeding to switch.

Notes: The minimum deposit requirement will only be applicable prior to the account switch. Upon successfully switching, the amount will be counted towards your accumulated deposit, and you are free to change between modes thereafter.

Step 3: Click either one of the modes to proceed and then click Switch Mode.

You have successfully switched your MT5 CFD account mode!

How to Withdraw from MT5 CFD Account

Step 1: Go to your MT5 CFD Account page and perform the transfer by clicking Transfer Out.

Your funds are now transferred back to your Funding Account or Unified Trading Account (UTA)!

You can check your transaction history here as well as your new Funding Asset balance on your Funding Asset Page.

Notes:

— BYUSDT is not available to transfer to the Funding account, it is only available to the Unified Trading Account (UTA) or MT5 CFD Account.

— If your MT5 CFD account contains Credit, any withdrawal of USDT or BYUSDT will proportionally reduce the Credit balance based on the withdrawal amount. For more information, please refer to Understanding MT5 CFD Asset Balances and Transfers
