What is a Unified Trading Account (UTA)?
Bybit EU's Unified Trading Account (UTA) centralizes all spot trading into a single account, simplifying the trading experience. The UTA features three margin modes—Isolated, Cross, and Portfolio Margin—each catering to different risk preferences and trading strategies, thus optimizing risk management and trading flexibility.

Cross Margin Mode |
Profits and losses across different products can offset each other. |
Multi-Asset Mode: All assets are collateralized as USD. | |
