# Quickstart

Place your first trade on Epsilon in a few minutes.

## 1. Open the app

Navigate to the Epsilon app. You land on the trade screen, connected to Robinhood Chain.

## 2. Sign in

Click **Sign in** and choose how you want to start:

* **Email**: creates your account and a self-custodial trading account automatically.
* **External wallet**: connect MetaMask, Rabby, or a mobile wallet via WalletConnect.
* **Guest**: try everything first, upgrade later.

See [Accounts & wallets](/getting-started/accounts-and-wallets.md) for how these options differ.

## 3. Fund your trading account

If you use the embedded trading account, deposit funds into it from any linked wallet. The deposit flow can convert on the way in: send ETH, receive USDG in your trading account, all in one guided flow. See [Funding your trading account](/products/funding.md).

If you trade from an external wallet, you can skip this step.

## 4. Make a swap

Pick the token you are paying with and the token you want to receive, enter an amount, and Epsilon quotes the best route. Confirm, and you are done. With one-click trading enabled there is no wallet popup at all.

## 5. Place your first advanced order

Switch the trade form from **Swap** to **Limit**, **Stop**, **DCA**, or **Trailing**. Set your trigger and amount, sign once, and keepers handle the rest on-chain, even when the app is closed.

## Next steps

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.epsilon.exchange/getting-started/quickstart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
