# How it Works

#### **Step 1: Check Access**

To begin, connect a wallet that meets the **token-gated access requirement**.\
Eligible wallets must stake the required amount of **$PSYOPS tokens** to activate the agent.\
Supported networks include **BASE and EVM-compatible wallets**.

Access the platform here: <https://agentarc.io/psyops>

#### **Step 2: Connect Your Exchange & Deposit USDT**

After verifying access, connect your **Binance Futures account** via API. Future CEX and DEX will be supported.\
PSYOPS runs directly on your connected account, executing trades automatically — you retain **full custody** at all times.

> ⚠️ **Important:** PSYOPS currently trades using the **entire available USDT balance** in the connected account.\
> For safety, we strongly recommend using a **dedicated sub-account** for PSYOPS.

Steps:

1. Create a Binance **sub-account** and fund it with the amount of **USDT** you wish to allocate.
2. Generate **API keys** for that sub-account with *Futures* and *Read Access* enabled (no withdrawals).
3. Connect it to PSYOPS through the Agent Arc dashboard.

#### **Step 3: Deploy and Monitor the Agent**

Once connected, you click start PSYOPS From there, it will begin allocating capital based on signals. Real-time execution is managed across as:

* Default leverage → **1.5×**
* Strategy → **20 long / 20 short** positions ranked hourly
* Rebalance → every **48 hours** based on signal strength and volatility

Monitor performance in the **Agent Arc Dashboard**:

* Real-time PnL
* Trades
* Open positions
* Historical Performance
