Getting Started Checklist: Set Up Your Account Step by Step - Everstrike Docs

The checklist walks you through setting up your account. Steps that count toward your trader rank show the XP they earn.

The steps

Step	Why
Verify your email	Secures your login and starts the daily AI credit allowance. See Email Verification.
Turn on two-factor authentication	Protects withdrawals and API keys. See Two-Factor Authentication.
Make your first deposit	Any amount of USDC or USDT. Arbitrum One and Base are usually far cheaper than Ethereum for the same transfer.
Place your first live trade	Perpetual futures or options.
Launch an AI strategy	Describe it in plain words and let it run. See AI Strategies.
Set a price alert	On any market. See Price Alerts.

The checklist shows all seven steps, each with a button that takes you there, and ticks them off as you go. If a step is done but not ticked, choose I’ve done this.

XP and rank

The checklist shows how much XP the steps have earned and how much is left, and your current rank. See EVS for how XP and ranks work.
