Attention to all Kraken users and people wanting to use the platform.
Kraken's trade engine on Cryptowatch as well as using API calls is not worth the effort. STAY AWAY if you do not absolutely need to trade there.
Endless error messages, often being unable to place and/or cancel orders. In addition there have been serious funding issues in the past, in particular massive delay in funds transactions. Maybe these are solved right now, but just look at this thread in the past. But usually Kraken does not give a damn when a customer experiences problems. They even keep the trade engine running while knowing that the are massive problems for their users. Could be a schema to rip them off, who knows.
From experience in the past it can be said that Kraken has one of the worst service teams in cryptoland, and their trade engine is even worse. For years they know about several mayor issues, and so far they have not solved any of the problems.
Dont say you have not been warned when you have read this post.
