# Creating an Account After navigating the the perpetuals trading page, click the Login/Connect button. Once connected, click the Create Account button at the top left of the screen. Approve the transaction in your wallet, and a Mint USDC button will appear in the trade modal on the right side of the screen. Click this button and confirm the transaction in your wallet to mint testnet USDC. Once you have minted, click Deposit to deposit the collateral into your account.

Now that you have created and funded your account, click the Account button at the top left of your screen. This will bring up the Accounts modal, where you can quickly monitor the status of your account(s), as well as perform several actions. You can rename your accounts, and clicking the arrow to the right will show you at-a-glance your number of open positions, Total Margin, and Unrealized PnL.

You can also create additional accounts, transfer collateral from one account to another, and even transfer an account to a completely different wallet address if you wish. --- # Agent Instructions: 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.
