Bybit Data Connector

Want Bitcoin, Ethereum, or altcoin charts with live prices and no API key? The Bybit connector talks to Bybit public v5 endpoints — history over REST, candle updates over WebSocket.

Standalone demo

Full-page version with sample code: Bybit live demo.

What you get

Feature	Details
No API key	Public Bybit spot market data
History	Up to 1,000 candles per request
Live ticks	WebSocket kline stream, auto-reconnect + heartbeat
Pairs	Major spot symbols (BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT, …)
Timeframes	1m through monthly

Perfect for crypto dashboards, multi-exchange terminals, and prototypes.

Install

npm install @efixdata/exeria-chart @efixdata/connector-bybit

Minimal example

import { createChart } from "@efixdata/exeria-chart";
import { BybitAdapter } from "@efixdata/connector-bybit";

const connector = new BybitAdapter();

const chart = createChart({
  container,
  dataAdapter: connector,
});

chart.init();

await chart.loadData("BTCUSDT", {
  interval: "1d",
  limit: 1000,
});

chart.subscribeToUpdates("BTCUSDT", (tick) => {
  console.log("Last price:", tick.price ?? tick.c);
});

Step by step

1 — Create the connector

const connector = new BybitAdapter();

Uses Bybit public URLs by default (category: "spot"). Optional tuning below.

2 — Attach to the chart

const chart = createChart({ container, dataAdapter: connector });
chart.init();

The chart delegates loadData and subscribeToUpdates to the connector.

3 — Load history

await chart.loadData("BTCUSDT", {
  interval: "1h",
  limit: 500,
});

Option	Meaning
interval	Candle size — "1m", "1h", "1d", "1w", "1M"
limit	How many recent bars (max 1,000)
from / to	Optional date range instead of “latest N”

4 — Go live

chart.subscribeToUpdates("BTCUSDT");
// or with a callback:
chart.subscribeToUpdates("BTCUSDT", (tick) => { /* update UI */ });

5 — Clean up

chart.unsubscribeFromUpdates();
await connector.disconnect();

Popular symbols

Symbol	Market
BTCUSDT	Bitcoin / USDT
ETHUSDT	Ethereum / USDT
BNBUSDT	BNB / USDT
SOLUSDT	Solana / USDT
XRPUSDT	XRP / USDT

Symbol format is BASE + QUOTE with no separator (BTCUSDT, not BTC-USDT).

Switch cryptocurrency

async function switchSymbol(newSymbol: string) {
  chart.unsubscribeFromUpdates();

  await chart.loadData(newSymbol, {
    interval: "1d",
    limit: 500,
  });

  chart.subscribeToUpdates(newSymbol);
}

Always unsubscribe before loading a new symbol on the same chart instance.

Custom configuration (optional)

Defaults work for most apps. For retries, testnet, or alternate hosts:

const connector = new BybitAdapter({
  baseUrl: "https://api.bybit.com",
  wsUrl: "wss://stream.bybit.com/v5/public/spot",
  category: "spot",
  requestTimeout: 10000,
  maxRetries: 5,
  retryDelay: 2000,
  pingIntervalMs: 20000,
});

For testnet:

const connector = new BybitAdapter({
  baseUrl: "https://api-testnet.bybit.com",
  wsUrl: "wss://stream-testnet.bybit.com/v5/public/spot",
});

Error handling

try {
  await chart.loadData("BTCUSDT", { interval: "1d", limit: 1000 });
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof Error && error.message.includes("Invalid symbol")) {
    console.error("Symbol not found on Bybit");
  } else {
    console.error("Load failed:", error);
  }
}

Show a retry button or message in your UI — users on bad networks will thank you.

Limits to know

Topic	Limit
Candles per request	1,000 max
REST rate	Public IP rate limits (see Bybit docs)
WebSocket	Heartbeat ping every 20 seconds recommended
Browser	Needs WebSocket support (all modern browsers)

For heavy traffic: cache history server-side.
