# How To: Create New Pool

Setting up a liquidity pool allows users to bring new tokens to the 3xcalibur platform and facilitate trading across different assets.

#### Create a new pair

* Under the 3xcali**Swap** page, you will find a tab called *Create.*
* In the interface you will be able to select the tokens you want to pair and the amount
* Additionally, above *Create Pair* you can choose whether the pool is a variable (x*y=k) pair or a stable (x^3y*y^3=k) pair. Note that the stable pair is preferred for same-type asset pairs, like FRAX/DAI, wBTC/renBTC, stETH/ETH, etc.
  * If the pair already exists, you won’t be able to create the new pool but you will be able to deposit your tokens in the existing pool.
* Hit *Create Pair* and Metamask transactions will pop-up.
* Sign and confirm the Metamask transactions to finalize.
