Review eligible Kraken history without order permissions
Import the records the query-only key returns, reconcile them, and investigate pair, fee, timing, and behavior questions.
The diagnostic accepts broker CSV imports; automatic connections require a paid plan.
Kraken exposes private trade history through signed query endpoints. TradeInsights does not require order placement, cancellation, or withdrawal permissions. Returned records still need reconciliation because product scope and history depth can vary.
Choose a supported Kraken import path
Uses an API key limited to querying funds and trade history, or a file export. Availability, history depth, fields, and timing vary by provider and account.
- 1
Create a query-only key
Enable only the Kraken permissions needed to query funds and closed orders or trades. Leave order and withdrawal permissions off.
- 2
Confirm the target account
Check that the key belongs to the intended Kraken account and product context.
- 3
Import eligible history
Connect on a paid plan or upload a supported Kraken export through File Import.
- 4
Reconcile pairs and costs
Compare count, range, price, volume, and fee fields with Kraken before using the analytics.
What TradeInsights can use from Kraken
Only fields returned by the selected connection or export are imported. Reconcile counts and totals before relying on the analysis.
- Eligible private trade-history records
- Pair, side, order type, price, and volume
- Available cost and fee fields
- Execution timestamps and identifiers
- Imported source and account metadata
- Import freshness and warning status
What your Kraken data unlocks
Turn imported records into an evidence-backed review loop
Reconcile before analysis
Compare the imported Kraken trade count, date range, and totals with the provider's own statement. Data warnings stay visible when the records are incomplete or stale.
Analyze useful segments
Break eligible closed trades down by pair, side, time window, and tag. Results describe the imported sample; they do not predict future performance.
Inspect evidence behind a finding
When TradeInsights supports a fee-drag or execution finding, review the method, confidence, limitations, and supporting trades before acting on it.
Close the review loop
Turn a supported finding into an explicit rule, then monitor later imported trades for adherence and new evidence.
Kraken analytics and import — FAQ
Is every Kraken account supported?
No. Availability can vary by provider, region, account type, product, and history endpoint. Check the live connection flow for the exact account before relying on automatic updates.
What access should I provide?
Create a separate Kraken key with query permissions only. Leave order placement, cancellation, funding, transfer, and withdrawal permissions disabled.
How current will the imported data be?
Refresh timing and history depth depend on the selected provider and account. TradeInsights shows the latest successful update so you can verify freshness before reviewing a finding.
What if the connection is unavailable or incomplete?
Use an available Kraken ledger or trade export and File Import. Verify how the export represents fills and closed positions.
Can I evaluate the workflow before paying for a connection?
Yes. New accounts can import up to 30 real trades through the free diagnostic. The First Value Report requires at least 20 qualifying imported, closed trades. Ongoing connections and analytics require a paid plan.
Put your Kraken history into a repeatable review loop.
Start with a broker CSV, build an evidence-backed First Value Report, then upgrade for supported account sync, ongoing analytics, and guarded AI-assisted review.
Connection availability, imported fields, history depth, and refresh timing vary by provider. Verify imported data before relying on analytics.
