Trading verification · Kraken

A Kraken record that proves itself.

Every spot fill Kraken reports arrives through a read-only API key with the verified seal on it, so your record is something you can show rather than something you say. The journal then breaks it down by pair, hour and setup, so you can see what to keep and what to cut.

How it works

  1. 01

    Make a query-only key

    In Kraken, create an API key and tick only the query permissions for funds, orders and trades. Leave every withdraw and trade permission unticked, so the key can read the account and cannot move money or place an order.

  2. 02

    Paste it in

    On Pro, pick Kraken and paste the API key, then the private key where the form asks for the secret. There is no passphrase, and the first sync starts as soon as the key is accepted.

  3. 03

    Read the record

    Each fill lands with its fee and the verified seal. Win rate, expectancy and drawdown recompute by pair, hour, weekday and setup.

Verified

Read from Kraken, not typed by you.

A fill synced from Kraken carries the verified seal on your record and on your public page, because DT Terminal read it from the exchange. A trade you log by hand stays marked self-reported, and that difference is what makes the seal worth showing.

  • Verified seal on every synced fill
  • A public record anyone can check
  • Hand-logged trades marked self-reported
The Proof page: a Broker-Verified live account with its recent verified trades, beside a challenge still marked self-reported.

Insights

Which pair and which hour are paying for the rest.

Kraken trades around the clock, so the journal splits results by hour and weekday as well as by pair and setup. The fee comes off every synced result, so the net figure is the one your account felt.

Questions

Does DT Terminal sync with Kraken?

Yes, on Pro. Kraken is one of 10 exchanges that connect through a read-only API key. Spot fills sync with their fees, and every one carries the verified seal. A free account can still log Kraken trades by hand or by CSV.

Which Kraken API permissions should I tick?

Only the query permissions: funds, open orders and trades, and closed orders and trades. Leave every withdraw and trade permission unticked. A key made that way lets DT Terminal read the account and nothing more, so it cannot move money or place, change or cancel an order.

Where does the Kraken private key go?

Private key is Kraken's name for the secret half of the key. Paste the API key first, then the private key into the field marked secret. The connection asks for no passphrase.

Why is my Kraken balance not syncing?

DT Terminal values a balance in US dollars and dollar stablecoins such as USDT and USDC, and never guesses a coin price. While the account holds BTC, ETH, euros or any other asset, the balance is not synced and the sync note says why. Your trades still sync as normal.

Does Kraken Futures sync?

Not today. The connection reads your Kraken spot account, so futures positions do not arrive through it. Log them by hand or import them from a CSV, and they sit in the same journal marked self-reported.

Can I run DT Terminal from Claude?

Soon. We are building an MCP connector that opens the whole of DT Terminal to Claude: every workspace and every piece of your data, to read and to act on, with your consent per scope. It works with any assistant that speaks MCP, and it is in development, not live yet.

Tick the query boxes and let Kraken fill the record.

Manual logging is free. Kraken sync and the verified seal are Pro.
