## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Connect an exchange">
    Add a read-only API key. Performax never needs trading or withdrawal permissions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Let the first sync run">
    Your closed trades, open positions, balances and cashflows are imported automatically.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review your trades">
    Tag, annotate and filter every trade in the [Trading Journal](/features/journal), then dig into [Analytics](/features/analytics).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set your rules">
    Define your initial capital and risk settings in [Profile](/settings/profile). Metrics get more reliable as your history gets complete.
  </Step>
</Steps>
