## Why set_spot_hedging is rated Medium

This tool modifies account preferences (hedging mode state) rather than executing trades or moving funds. The change is reversible by toggling the setting back. While it affects trading behavior and risk exposure, it does not irreversibly delete data, execute arbitrary code, or commit financial transactions directly.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description states 'Set spot hedging mode on or off' — an operation that modifies account trading configuration settings."

## Use case

AI agents use set_spot_hedging to create or update resources in Bybit, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Bybit environment.
