You can choose from two platforms. If you choose the Bybit exchange for your challenges, then yes, you will need a Bybit trading account. You will connect your account to HyroTrader via API. Verification of your trading account is not required if you are only trading and practicing on a demo account. If you do not have a Bybit account, you can register here.
