  Yes, it is possible to trade on BitMEX without entering an API key. The API key is mainly used for advanced trading strategies and automated trading. If you're just a regular trader and don't need to use any API features, you can simply ignore the API key section and trade using the basic features provided by BitMEX. However, if you plan to use API features in the future, it's recommended to set up an API key for better control and security.

  As an expert in the field, I would highly recommend setting up an API key on BitMEX if you're serious about trading. The API key allows you to access advanced trading features and automate your trading strategies. It provides better control and security for your trades. However, if you're just starting out or prefer manual trading, you can trade on BitMEX without entering an API key. It's completely up to your trading preferences and needs.
