Getting started
This page takes you from landing on the site to your first trade. The whole flow is designed to take a few minutes. There is no document upload, no multi-day review, and no crypto setup.
1. Create your account
Sign up with email or a social login. There is no wallet to install and no seed phrase to write down. An account is provisioned for you in the background; you'll see "account created," never "wallet created." Crypto is the plumbing here; you never have to touch it; see Verifiability if you want to understand what's happening underneath.
2. Choose a tier
Pick one of three evaluation tiers. Each sets how large your account is, how much profit you need, and how much room you have to lose before the evaluation ends.
| Tier | Account size | Profit target | Max drawdown | Max leverage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $10,000 | 8% | 10% | 10× |
| Basic | $25,000 | 8% | 8% | 8× |
| Pro | $50,000 | 10% | 8% | 8× |
The full ruleset, including the daily loss limit and trade budget, is shown before you commit. Read Tiers & accounts and The rules for the detail.
3. Place your first trade
You land in the evaluation cockpit, your trading workspace. From there you can:
- Browse the markets and open a position long or short.
- See your exact fill (price, house tilt, and fee) before you submit.
- Attach a take-profit and stop-loss bracket to manage risk.
- Watch your equity curve, drawdown gauge, daily-loss budget, and profit-target progress update in real time.
Every rule is live from your first trade. If a trade would put you past your drawdown floor or daily loss limit, the evaluation ends the moment that breach is detected. See Passing & failing.
4. Hit your target
Reach your tier's profit target with every rule intact and you pass. Passing levels up your Genesis credential, moves you up the leaderboard, and unlocks the next tier.
