How often do trades sync?

Every hour. On connect, Flowsense pulls the history shown on the card (usually the last 90 days), and you can press Sync now on the connection any time.

Which plan do I need?

Free includes one exchange connection, synced every 6 hours. Pro and Elite connect every exchange and sync every hour. CSV and screenshot import work on every plan.

Bybit asks about IP restrictions. What should I pick?

Restrict the key to the IP addresses shown in Flowsense's connect dialog: they're the fixed addresses every request with your key comes from. If the dialog shows none, leave it unrestricted. If Bybit later disables the key, create a new one and press Edit on the connection to paste it.

Can I trade on Bybit from Flowsense?

Yes, on Elite: turn on trading on your Bybit connection with a Read-Write key. See Turn on trading.
