4. Under "Add IP addresses(Optional)" do NOT enter your IP address, because you won't have a static IP. You IP will change and the bot can't access the exchange and trade for you.

5. Click "Submit".

After you did this just copy and paste the shown keys into the bybitAPI.json. The secret Key will only be shown once.

{
  "apiKey": "enter here",
  "secretKey": "enter here" 
}

API Keys on Bybit are only valid for 3 months. This means you will need to do this every 3 months again. Don't forget that :)
