# Setup and Use

The modeling tool is intuitive by design and allows users to save, modify, and track trades throughout the life of the trade. [Here is a video covering the basic functions](https://youtu.be/OHAX2HuH-ig).

To start, navigate to **Model** at the top of the site and select either **Model** for saved models or **Create New Model**.

It’s easy to create a new model. Let’s use a call debit spread with one long call and one short call. Simply left-click **Mid (Buy)** to add the long call leg.

Then left-click **Mid (Sell)** to add the short call leg.

You will see the legs added to the chain and listed on the right. To view the trade visually, click **View Chart** on the right or **Chart** at the top.

Greeks can be added at the top right. Let’s add Delta and Charm.

Users can click **3D** to model in three dimensions.

Greeks are also displayed along the bottom of the screen.

If the user selects **2D**, they can adjust the time, range, and IV of the model.

To save the model, click **Save**.

Users can change the pricing, give the model a name and description, and choose to enable sharing if they want to share the model with a friend.

Saved models will now appear under the **Model** page.

That’s the basics. We’ll continue adding more modeling documentation over time.
