You need an existing Shuriken account. If you don’t have one yet, sign up at alpha.shuriken.trade.

Log In

Click the Shuriken extension icon to open the popup. Click Login with Webapp — a new tab opens to the Shuriken Terminal.

Visit a Token Page

Navigate to any token page on Axiom, Dexscreener, Padre, or GMGN. The trading modal appears automatically.

Execute Your First Trade

In the trading modal:
  1. Select your gas preset (Auto, P1, or P2)
  2. Click a preset buy amount (e.g., 0.5 SOL)
  3. The trade executes immediately — a toast notification confirms submission
Your new position appears in the positions header at the top of the page.
Login is required for all features. The extension gates all functionality behind authentication.

Session Management

Your extension session is independent from the web platform:
  • Logging out of the Terminal does not log you out of the extension
  • Logging out of the extension does not log you out of the Terminal
  • Your extension session persists indefinitely until you explicitly sign out
