# Quick Start

> Go from zero to your first Polymarket trade in five steps.

<Note>
  When you complete registration, Overdog automatically creates a non-custodial Polygon wallet for you. You own it — Overdog never holds your funds. Use `/export` at any time to retrieve your private key and import it into MetaMask or any EVM wallet.
</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open @overdog_bot on Telegram">
    Search for **@overdog\_bot** in Telegram and tap **Start**, or send the `/start` command.

    Before your account is created, Overdog asks you to join the **OVERDOG Hub** community group. Tap **Join Group**, join the group, then tap **I've joined ✓** to continue. This one-time step is required to activate your account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Fund your wallet">
    Once registered, send `/wallet` to see your deposit addresses. Overdog supports deposits from multiple networks and currencies — no need to already hold crypto on Polygon.

    See [Deposit funds](/wallet/deposit) for a full breakdown of supported networks, minimums, and expected arrival times.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Find a market">
    Search for any market by typing a keyword directly in the chat — for example:

    * `Lakers` — NBA game markets
    * `Trump` — political outcome markets
    * `UCL` — UEFA Champions League matches

    You can also paste a `polymarket.com` URL directly and Overdog will load that market. To browse by category, use `/markets` for all markets or `/sports` for sports-only.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Place your first trade">
    Tap any market result to open it, then select an **outcome** (e.g. "Yes" or "No"). Overdog shows you the current price and prompts you to choose an amount.

    * Use the preset buttons (**$10**, **$25**, **\$50**) for a quick fill
    * Or type a custom dollar amount

    Review the estimated fill price and tap **Confirm** to submit the trade. Your position is live within seconds.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Track your positions">
    Send `/positions` at any time to see all your open positions, current value, and unrealized P\&L. From the positions view you can also sell, set take-profit, or set stop-loss on any holding.
  </Step>
</Steps>
