I don't see any threads on Reddit or twitter feeds which may indicate that there is serious technical problem with Kraken's stability right now.
When exchange is working slow and sloppy it is usually due to overflow of orders, in case of Kraken I think they deserve token of trust for being fair exchange.
If you are worried then withdraw your funds - you shouldn't keep your whole stash in online deposit anyway.

This is all so familiar!

Yup! Clearly not a good idea to leave a significant amount of coins on there right now.

I experienced the opposite.  I put in a buy order at Kraken during the most crazy period and the order submitted twice!  Kraken executed both orders so I bought twice as much as I'd actually wanted.  I'm not complaining but there was clearly a lot of strain on the system at that time causing some strange behaviour.

LOL yes it is. Most of these exchanges think they're prepared for surges in demand, but come woefully short. Hopefully this is a wake-up call for them to imrpove their capacity. Otherwise we'll see outages frequently this year.

Last night I put in a margin trade with no profit stop at 1149 rate and this morning I cashed out the profit at a 949 rate, the spooky thing is I woke up 2 minutes before the price dropped 100$ and I don't wake up this early, ever.

well, when a red dildo like that comes on i am sure 1000s of people wanted to log in to panic sell or buy so the system could not handle it.

is not only kraken man, bitstamp had same problems. i was logged off and could not log in .. took my 6 attempts to log in i wanted to change my buy order to lowe . did not work i ended up buying at 30 euros higher hahah

Some of my orders were executed orders not. It's annoying because I thought Kraken would be reliable in this circumstances. I've been using them for over a year now and never had this problem. Ah well I take solace in the fact they are not the only exchange. Coinbase seems to be having a hard time too.

WTF? I thought Kraken was a respectable exchange house, since they were chosen for disbursement of the MtGox bankruptcy funds, but it seems not. I had 3 trailing-stop sell orders on Kraken waiting for this value drop, they were supposed to trigger at 1012, 990 and 960-ish euros but we're already at like 955 and none of them are executed, I'm still fully in BTC! Anyone else seeing this on their account?
