# Set Up An Exchange Account

For now, AutoView is the only supported broker connector for PSStrategyX. 

Fortunately, AutoView supports a range of popular exchanges, including Binance, Bitfinex, Oanda, Kraken, and more. For a full list see [supported exchanges](/tools/setup-instructions/set-up-an-exchange-account/supported-exchanges.md).

### Setting Up An API With The Exchange.

If you want to trade on an exchange, first you will need to create an account with that exchange. For the purposes of this article and scope, I will assume that you have already registered and made an account on said exchange. 

The first thing you will need to do is head to the "Permissions" tab and toggle on any exchanges you are using.

Now that those exchanges have been giving the on permission you can access their API Configuration settings.

We can get the API Key ID and Secret Key from the exchange we are using. Here's what Binance Futures Testnet looks like.

{% endhint %}

### Final Steps: Connect  PSStrategyX to AutoView

Now all you need to do is use the "Broker Connector" section in PSStrategyX and select the exchange you want to trade on and past in the unique Account name we just made.

## 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.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.pinescriptstrategy.com/tools/setup-instructions/set-up-an-exchange-account.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
