After transferring funds to your Unified Trading on Bybit, you are nearly ready to begin the process of copy trading on Copin.io.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you encounter the <mark style="color:red;">**INVALID API KEY**</mark> error, please ensure that:&#x20;

1. Your futures account balance is greater than 0 (refer to Section 4. Fund Deposit and Transfer).&#x20;

## FAQ

***Q1: Why have I created API Keys and connected Bybit's API to*** [***Copin.io***](http://copin.io/) ***in Wallet Management but still can't copy trades?***

A: Kindly check again all settings from **API** or **transfer fund** or **setup trading mode**.

***Q2: Why did you get Error Message: "Min amount"***

A: The error message "Min amount" indicates that your order size is below the minimum lot size requirement for the specific trading pair. Each trading pair on Bybit has a minimum lot size, which is the smallest quantity of the base asset that can be traded in a single order. *More details: <https://www.bybit.com/en/announcement-info/transact-parameters/>*

***Q3: What should the balance ratio be in the Bybit Unified Trading Account with Margin when setting up copy trades using the Bybit Wallet on*** [***app.copin.io***](http://app.copin.io/)***?***

A: Always set up copy trades (Margin) with an amount smaller than the balance in your Unified Trading Account to ensure orders are executed. For example: If the balance in your Futures account is $3000, you should set up copy trades with Margin < $3000.

***Q4: How should I fill in the IP address section?***

A: You don't need to fill in anything and can skip this section to proceed.
