Can I trade while my payout is being reviewed?

No. Trading on your account is prohibited once a withdrawal request has been submitted. Any trades placed during the review window will delay the review process, and any profits generated during this period will be deleted from your account balance.

How this works by platform

CLEO
Trading is automatically hard-locked the moment your withdrawal request is submitted. No action required — you simply cannot place trades during the review.

Bybit
Trading is not technically locked on ByBit. However, placing trades during the review period violates our terms. Any profits made will be removed and your review may be delayed or flagged.
