Your account name is your Steem username. In my case, stenonotes is my account name. Make certain it says "Address is valid" and do NOT include the @ symbol in this input field. Next, click the 'Get Deposit Address' button.
Your deposit address will then appear. Send your payment to this address. Before sending, make certain to send the correct coin!

You can follow also follow @blocktrades on Steemit for updates on their exchange.
I like BlockTrades for the simple fact that you never have to store your funds on a centralized exchange. They also have solid prices.
