Get both open (pending) and recently closed orders. Essential for monitoring order status and trading activity. Use this to check if orders are filled, cancelled, or still pending.
AI agents call get_open_closed_orders to retrieve information from Bybit MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves order status information without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any trades. It is a passive monitoring function that poses minimal risk even if misused by an AI agent, as it only exposes order history and status data.
