# Welcome

Midas is an AI-powered trading app for crypto and perpetuals. One account, one balance, and an assistant that can actually see your portfolio.

New here? The fastest path from nothing to your first trade is four short pages:

1. [Create your account](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/create-account/README.md) — sign in with email, phone or X. Your wallet is made for you.
2. [Connect your wallet](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/connect-wallet/README.md) — the two addresses you get, and how to bring in crypto you already hold.
3. [Fund your account](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/fund-account/README.md) — buy with a card, or deposit crypto.
4. [Your first trade](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/spot-trading/README.md) — buy a token in three taps.

## What Midas does

* **Trade** spot tokens across Solana and the major EVM chains, and perpetual futures on Hyperliquid — see [Trading](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/trading/README.md).
* **Understand** what is moving and why, through [analysis](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/analysis/README.md) and the live [Wire](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/the-wire/README.md) feed.
* **Ask** [Midas AI](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/midas-ai/README.md) about your positions, the market, or what to do next — it can see your account.
* **Act on ideas** from [First Take](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/first-take/README.md): specific trades with an entry, a target, a stop and the reasoning.
* **Earn** [cashback](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/cashback/README.md) on your own trading and [referral commission](https://github.com/stsssol/stss/tree/main/docs/referrals/README.md) on everyone you bring.

## How Midas works

Two things are worth knowing up front, because they shape everything else.

**Nothing executes without you.** Every trade — including ones the AI prepares — becomes a confirmation card showing the asset, side, amount, route and fee. That card is what you are approving.

**Midas would rather fail than guess.** If it cannot determine something transaction-critical, like which chain a token is on, it asks or stops. Silent assumptions about money are how funds get lost.

**Not financial advice**

Midas provides software, AI-generated analysis and execution tools. Decisions, leverage, losses, taxes and custody are yours. Crypto trading carries real risk of loss, and leveraged positions can be liquidated.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.midasmarkets.xyz/getting-started/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

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.
