From Bybit to a journal in three steps

The export takes a minute in Bybit. The import previews every trade before anything is written.

  1. 1

    Export Trade History from Bybit

    In Bybit, open Orders, then Unified Trading Order. Choose the Derivatives tab and Trade History, filter the contract type and dates, then Export and download the CSV. For older history, use Bybit's Data Export page. Step-by-step Bybit export guide.
  2. 2

    Install Journalit in Obsidian

    Obsidian is a free notes app. Add Journalit from its Community Plugins, sign in with a free account, and create the trading account your Bybit trades belong to. Install Journalit.
  3. 3

    Drop the CSV into Trade Import

    Open Trade Import, choose the Bybit tile, and upload the original file. Check the preview for trade count, dates, prices, fees and warnings, then confirm. Previewing is free; confirming the import needs Pro. How Trade Import works.

Step 3: pick Bybit, then upload the Trade History CSV.

Which Bybit file to use

Bybit has several history exports and they are not interchangeable. Only Trade History has the fill-level detail a journal needs.

Bybit exportWhat it containsFor your journal
Trade HistoryIndividual executions with price, quantity, time and feeUse this one
Closed P&LOne summarised result per closed positionWill not import as trades
Order HistoryOrders; one order can contain several executionsWill not import as trades
Transaction Log / statementAccount changes such as fees, funding and transfersFor reconciliation, not trades

Exactly what is supported

The same facts we maintain for support, published instead of hidden. If something here is wrong, it is a bug.

What gets captured

  • Individual derivatives executions from Trade History: price, quantity, time and fee
  • The original export columns; Journalit expects the raw CSV, not a spreadsheet-edited copy

Account types

  • Bybit accounts you can export derivatives Trade History from

Honest limitations

  • File import only; there is no Bybit Trade Sync and no API connection
  • Closed P&L, Order History and the Transaction Log are different records and do not import as trades
  • Bybit can change export labels or columns; a fresh Trade History export is the first troubleshooting step

What you get after the import

The CSV becomes part of a journal you keep, not a report you read once.

A note for every trade

Each trade is a Markdown file in your vault, with prices, size and fees. Add your reasoning, screenshots and tags beside the numbers.

Dashboards and reviews

See P&L, win rate and drawdown, filtered by date, symbol or setup, and review each day and week with templates you can change.

Files you keep

The journal lives on your computer and works offline. Nothing is locked in a hosted account, and Journalit never touches your Bybit account.

Not on Bybit only? Journalit imports from other exchanges and platforms too: see the broker export guides or read how the Obsidian trading journal works.
