Yes. If you choose a Bybit challenge, you need a Bybit account with access to sub-accounts and Demo Trading.

Important: the challenge is connected to Era Trade only through a separate Bybit sub-account and a separate API key.

One sub-account = one challenge. If you have multiple Bybit challenges, each challenge requires its own sub-account and API key.

If you choose MT5 or TradeLocker, a Bybit account is not required for that challenge.

The trader is responsible for complying with Bybit’s rules, platform terms, and jurisdictional requirements.
