Bybit has achieved full legal status in the European Union, having successfully passed MEA regulation, signifying a major expansion for the platform.
European users logging into Bybit will be prompted to create a new account on Bybit Europe, with a specific registration link available to claim the largest bonuses and optimize the user experience.
Users can claim up to $100 in welcome rewards and access a Deposit Blastoff campaign offering up to $30,000, activated by registering through a specific link, completing KYC, depositing funds, and executing trades.
Specific bonus tiers are available, ranging from $20 for initial KYC completion to $30,000 for high trading volumes and substantial deposits, with the latter requiring a $250,000 deposit and $150 million trading volume.
Users who already possess a Bybit account can create a new Bybit Europe account using the same email address and still qualify for the new user bonuses.
The Bybit Europe platform maintains the same interface and underlying logic as Bybit Global, ensuring a familiar user experience while providing full access to its features from anywhere in Europe.
Bybit enables trading of traditional assets through its Stratfi section, requiring users to open an MT5 account and complete Level 2 KYC.
Users can trade forex, CFDs, metals, oil, indices, commodities, and stocks with up to 500x leverage, tight spreads, and high liquidity.
Iceberg orders are a conditional order type designed for large traders to mask their trade size, prevent slippage, and avoid front-running by splitting a single large order into multiple smaller, hidden orders.
When placing an iceberg order, users specify the total trade volume and the number of split orders, or the quantity per individual order, allowing a large trade to be broken into many smaller, less visible orders.
Order preferences for iceberg orders include 'chase limit taker' for fast execution, 'chase limit offset' for maintaining a fixed distance from the top of the order book, or 'fixed price' for executing all split orders at a specific, predetermined price.
Utilizing iceberg orders effectively confuses front-runners and mitigates the causes of slippage, ensuring that large trades have minimal impact on market perception and execution.
Bybit Europe is fully legal in the European Union, providing users with access to substantial bonuses, a wide array of traditional assets, and advanced conditional orders like iceberg orders to effectively hide large trades.
