Trader quickstart
The whole path from zero to a funded account, in five steps. Every step links to the page that explains its mechanics, so use this as the map and drill down where you want the detail.
Never used a crypto wallet before? Step 1 assumes you have one. New to crypto? Start here is the fifteen minutes that comes before this page, and it covers getting a wallet, getting SOL (free today), and what you actually get paid in.
1. Connect a wallet
The entire platform signs in with a Solana wallet, there is no email signup and no password. Open any firm's storefront, connect your wallet, and sign a one-time message proving you control it. That signature is your login, and your wallet address is your identity everywhere on the protocol, including the reputation that follows you between firms.
2. Pick a firm
The core rules are identical at every firm, so you're comparing four things: evaluation price, profit split, leverage, and the firm's health. The health part is visible right on the storefront, its risk-engine tier and its happiness score, and neither is something the firm writes itself. Choosing a firm covers what to check before you buy.
3. Buy an evaluation
Pay in SOL directly from your connected wallet. The price is quoted in USD and converted at the live SOL rate at purchase time, and your account is provisioned the moment the transaction confirms. The same purchase also starts your airdrop points accruing, one point per dollar of real fee paid.
4. Trade it
Trading happens in the browser terminal, and only there: no bots, no API keys, no programmatic access, for anyone. The rulebook you're trading against is fixed platform-wide:
| Rule | Phase 1 | Phase 2 (two-step) |
|---|---|---|
| Profit target | 7% | 5% |
| Max total drawdown | 10% | 10% |
| Max daily loss | 5% | 5% |
| Minimum trading days | 4 | 4 |
How trading works explains what's real (prices, fills) and what's simulated (exposure). Evaluations & the rulebook covers the rules in full.
5. Get funded, get paid
Pass and the account converts to a funded account at the firm's advertised profit split. When you've earned a payout, you request it from the dashboard; delivery runs through the protocol's four-layer payout waterfall with no approval desk in the way. There is no withdrawal fee, the split is the only division.
One thing to know before you start: the protocol runs on Solana devnet today, ahead of mainnet. What's live today states exactly what that means.
