Re: [ANN] KRAKEN.COM - Exchange with USD EUR GBP JPY CAD BTC LTC XRP NMC XDG STR ETH
it really is rediculous, I have been trying to get a simple buy order through for 2 days now... no luck.
the other day I had another series of errors, gave up and closed the site. came back a couple hours later to find that my order had misteriously been executed....
I am a little scard to trade there now, do I have to sit in front of the screen for 3 hours to be sure, in case I get an error again (very likely)

You should be really scared. Cause this is very typical for Kraken, and the dev team either dos not care, or is not up to the task to solve this issue.
One advise regarding this phenomenon. It can easily take up 5 min for the system to accept/show your order. So, in 99% of the cases if your order does not show up after 5 min, you can place it again.
You could write a little loop to check the order book in regular intervals, to see whether your order was placed (hint, do the same for the trade history).
Alternatively, you could also ignore Kraken and move on to another trading platform. Most of them which we encountered work fine. Im not naming any here as this would the wrong place to promote them.
