Kraken is notoriously slow, unresponsive and buggy exchange and frankly I dont know why they get away with it. For months or year(s) you often run into site unavailable errors (load balancing issues?). Or if you are lucky to get to the trading screen you are unable to get trades through because of engine issues (capacity issues again?). Sometimes all you see is an empty red background rectangle where the error text should be indicating no dice but then minutes/hours later you might get one or more of the positions you tried to open despite only having gotten (ambiguous) errors.

Let's hope they finally fixed their engine and purchased more capacity.
