# Sign in to the website (not MetaTrader)

The Sign in page is only for this website. MetaTrader has a separate login, password, and server that appear later under Credentials. Mixing the two is the most common beginner mistake.

## Step 1: Open Sign in and use the website password

Open [Sign in](https://smpfund.com/login). Type the same email you used on [Register](https://smpfund.com/register) and the website password (or Google, if you registered with Google).

Success takes you to [Trader dashboard](https://smpfund.com/account). That screen is still not MetaTrader. You cannot place trades there. Trades happen later in the MetaTrader app after we issue credentials.

If the form says the account is not verified, go back to the confirmation email or [Verify email](https://smpfund.com/verify-email).

- Email
- Website password

## Step 2: Forgot the website password

On [Sign in](https://smpfund.com/login) click the forgot-password link, or open [Forgot password](https://smpfund.com/forgot-password). Enter your email. We send a reset link. Open it, set a new website password on [Reset password](https://smpfund.com/reset-password), then sign in again.

This does not change your MetaTrader password. If you can sign in to the site but MetaTrader rejects the password, you are in the wrong tutorial — open [Credentials](https://smpfund.com/account/credentials) and [Log in to MetaTrader 5](https://smpfund.com/help/connect-mt5) instead.

Google-only accounts may not have a website password until you set one under [Security](https://smpfund.com/account/security).

- [Create a website account (step by step)](https://smpfund.com/help/create-account): First you only create a login for this website (email + password, or Google). That is not a MetaTrader account and not a purchased challenge. Confirm the email or the trader panel stays locked.
- [Password, 2FA, and sessions (keep the account yours)](https://smpfund.com/help/security): Set a website password if you used Google, turn on two-factor authentication, and sign out unknown devices. Support will never ask for recovery codes in a ticket.
- [Log in to MetaTrader 5 (first time ever)](https://smpfund.com/help/connect-mt5): Website Sign in and MetaTrader login are two different doors. After we issue the account, copy three fields from Credentials, install official MT5, then File → Login to Trade Account and search the exact server name.
