Create Your Account

Visit quantumedge.markets and click "Get Started" to create your account. You will need a valid email address and a strong password (minimum 12 characters with mixed case, numbers, and symbols). After registering, you will receive a verification email -- click the link to confirm your address before proceeding.

Secure Your Account with MFA

Navigate to Settings > Security and enable two-factor authentication. QuantumEdge supports TOTP-based authenticator apps such as Google Authenticator, Authy, or 1Password. Scan the QR code, enter the six-digit confirmation code, and save your backup codes in a secure location. MFA is required before you can deploy trading strategies.

Complete Your Profile

Go to the onboarding flow and fill in your legal name, date of birth, and country of residence. This information is required for regulatory compliance. QuantumEdge verifies your eligibility based on your jurisdiction and will notify you if there are any restrictions.

Connect Your Exchange

Link your Kraken exchange account by generating a trade-only API key from the Kraken dashboard. Copy the API Key and Secret into QuantumEdge. Ensure the key has trade permissions enabled but withdrawal permissions disabled -- QuantumEdge never needs access to move funds off your exchange.

Deploy Your First Strategy

Select a strategy to deploy. Currently, the DCA-Guard strategy is available for live deployment. Choose your trading pair (e.g., BTC/USD), set your capital allocation and risk parameters, then click Deploy. Your strategy will begin executing trades according to the strategy logic. Monitor performance from the Dashboard in real time.
