I'm not a really a trader, just using Kraken to buy/sell BTC sometimes. IIRC before, when all my funds were in an untouched order, if I tried placing another order it would not go through. Yesterday I placed an order (at market price) and only later did I realise I still hadn't removed the previous untouched order. I cancelled it, no problem. But is that a new feature? Margin trading? Excuse my ignorance.

Margin trading is an upcoming feature. From what you describe, it sounds to me like you shouldn't have been able to place that second order. It would be much appreciated if you created a ticket about it with the relevant order numbers so we can check it out.

Edit: After talking to one of our devs I learned that it is possible to execute a market order without removing a previous limit order.

In https://api.kraken.com/0/public/AssetPairs, you have changed the field leverage, and split it in leverage-buy and leverage-sell. Can you please use underscores (leverage_buy and leverage_sell) and have those fields use the same convention as the rest of the api? This tickles my OCD.

Thanks - I put in this request.

@Dargo

After checking out the whole new kraken.com site, and I already like it much better.

Question:
A photo of you 'Dargo' is not on "THE TEAM" page. https://www.kraken.com/en-us/about/team  Why is that?

Glad you like it! I am on the team page, but not as 'Dargo' because that is just an alias. You will find me on the team page under my real name - 'Brian'.
Good to see you Brian. I was serve by you the best cryptocurrency exchanges support I've ever have just from the beginning of kraken go-live. Thanks Smiley

Cheers.  Smiley

Too bad. I think price might drop again in the next hours but i think it will go upwards for the next days. Leverage would be nice. I trust kraken more than bitfinex at the moment. But i will think about bitfinex then.

Sorry to hear you don't like it. For the new order screen, is there a loss of functionality for you? Or is it that you find that the order screen isn't as clean to look at? I'm not sure if not having it all in "one box" as you say is harming the functionality or just the look for you.
I meant just the design/look. It looks like tools are placed in nowhere. That's irritating for the eyes.

But I found a harm in functionality because of the design change: the "refresh" button now does not change color, if you can't do a refresh.  Before the design change it was light blue and then dark blue.  Now it's just white...

By the way I have three suggestions (has nothing to do with the design)
1. Make it possible to click the refresh button more than every 10 seconds, every second would be better. (for now if you click refresh, you have to wait 10 seconds to click it again)
2. Create a button to cancel all open orders at once. (maybe with a confirmation pop up)
3. Improve the cancel process. After clicking at the X to cancel an order, it takes ~3 seconds after the order disappers (you can't cancel the next order during this 3 seconds because then you get an error message). In addition to that there is a kind of animation (the order getting red and the disappears). Maybe it would be faster if you disable this useless animation. (or let the user decide in settings, if they want those animations), because I think this animation is the reason why it does not work properly


@Dargo

Yeah, like Serpens I have been thinking about the very same thing:
I'd like to see a change of the way how to cancel all/some open orders.  ( idea: put check boxes in front of all orders, and a check box above all other check boxes ( as seen in gmail )
So we can choose 'some' or 'all' open orders to be cancelled.

Example Scenario:
Imagine you create a 100BTC limit buy order at €250 , with conditional close position @ limit sell €260
Now, the limit buy order gets filled s_l_o_w_l_y at €250, and for each successful buy action a new limited €260 sell order is created.
So depending on how many single buy actions were needed to fill the order at €250, as many conditional close sell orders will have been created.

If you then change your mind and now need to quickly sell at €255 because you see the price won't go up to €260, you currently have to manually cancel all these open sell orders ( the way Serpens described it ).
Which would take in our example up to a couple of minutes and definitely hurts the user experience and in this case might lead to not being able not manually create a new sell order at €255 in time, as it takes too long to cancel each single order manually. At this point you would loose money/btc.

As a quick solution, an additional check box for: 'Cancel all orders?' would make life easier.





Thanks for the suggestion - I will submit this feature request to the developers.

How does the old saying go: " Never change a running system"
I wouldn't have expected that anyone would see a need to have the design changed. I assumed there are more important tweaks to be done Wink

Need to get used to it...

Could not agree more, just a bit of a waste of time money and effort really....... why?

Would rather see better site usability from a mobile browser device or an official kraken app.....

I'm with you as well. There was no need for the new design. Time would be better spent making mobile sites/apps.

As far as the main page goes, I hate these kind of pages with a passion. They manage to put one single picture and one single button on one 1920x1080 pixel page. Then you have to scroll thru 5 pages of nonsense to get to the company info links at the bottom. You can put all that on a single page and there will be zero clutter Wink

I'm a happy Kraken customer and I just use the Login button on the top. But if I came to this page a year and a half ago and saw this nonsense, I would immediately close it and never signed up...

Hello,

i am waiting for a FIAT deposit via Fidor for 24 hours now. Are there any known issues?

Hi benanna (and others),

There was a small problem with processing transactions, but it has been fixed now. All pending transactions are being sent.
Apologies for the delay - we just noted the issue a few hours ago.

Let us know if you still experience problems and/or delays!

Yes, it has been fixed. Thank you.

Lol!

Kraken is a joke and a selective scam - you need to pm 'dargo' on the forum to avoid getting scammed.

Looks like you are still drunk from yesterday. So far no problems with kraken.

He and selectiveban should really lay off the booze.
