Introduction

The Kraken Futures platform provides a number of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) through HTTP and Websockets (WS).

The HTTP API provides secure access to your Kraken Futures account to perform actions such as:

These "endpoints" are explained in the HTTP API section.

The WebSocket API provides real-time data channels to the Kraken Futures platform which eliminates the need to periodically send requests for frequently changing information. The WebSocket API section explains how to create "subscriptions" to these data channels.

Some of the endpoints allow performing sensitive tasks, such as initiating a digital asset withdrawal. To access these endpoints securely, the API uses encryption techniques developed by the National Security Agency. This section describes how to encrypt your communication with the API when accessing these endpoints.

The API can be implemented using any programming language you like (e.g. C, C++, Java or PHP), as long as it is capable of managing HTTP requests. We strongly suggest you look at the code examples listed in sample implementations.

Conventions and definitions

Server Time

The server time is in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

Unique Identifiers

Unique Identifier Example

c18f0c17-9971-40e6-8e5b-10df05d422f0

The system constructs unique identifiers according to the Universally Unique Identifier standard.

Dates and Times

Dates and Times Examples

2016-02-26T12:09:38.830Z
2016-02-26T12:09:38Z

The API requires dates and time arguments in the ISO8601 datetime format and returns all dates and times in the same format. The syntax of this format is <yyyy>-<mm>-<dd>T<HH>:<MM>:<SS>.<sss>Z where <yyyy> is the year, <mm> is the month, <dd> is the day, <HH> is the hour, <MM> is the minute, <SS> is the second and <sss> is the millisecond. When provided as an argument, <sss> is optional. Z denotes that the datetime is in UTC.

Symbols

The system identifies cash accounts, margin accounts, futures contracts and indices through ticker symbols. Please refer to the platform documentation for details on the ticker symbol syntax. The following shows some sample ticker symbols.

Example Symbols Description
xbt Bitcoin
xrp Ripple XRP
fi_xbtusd Bitcoin-Dollar Futures Margin Account
fi_xrpusd Ripple-Dollar Futures Margin Account
fi_xbtusd_180615 Bitcoin-Dollar Futures, maturing at 16:00 London time on 15 June 2018
fi_xrpusd_180615 Ripple-Dollar Futures, maturing at 16:00 London time on 15 June 2018
fi_xrpxbt_180615 Ripple-Bitcoin Futures, maturing at 16:00 London time on 15 June 2018
in_xbtusd Bitcoin-Dollar Real-Time Index
rr_xbtusd Bitcoin-Dollar Reference Rate
in_xrpusd Ripple-Dollar Real-Time Index

Order of Arguments

Example

When calling the tickers endpoint, the structure for rr_xbtusd will not contain the keys suspended, lastSize, vol24h, bid, bidSize, ask, askSize and markPrice. This is because rr_xbtusd is an index such that these keys do not apply.

{
  "symbol": "rr_xbtusd",
  "last": 4225,
  "lastTime": "2016-02-25T11:05:21.000Z",
  "open24h": 4179,
  "high24h": 4264,
  "low24h": 4177
}

When calling endpoints with required arguments, all arguments must be provided in the order they are listed (see section HTTP API resources).

Generate API keys

Your api_key (Public key) example:

rRra59qKQs3y1egAgSaG0RJlBcbq97wTUXSxXxPdhRZdv7z9ijZRWgrf

Your api_secret (Private key) example:

rttp4AzwRfYEdQ7R7X8Z/04Y4TZPa97pqCypi3xXxAqftygftnI6H9yGV+OcUOOJeFtZkr8mVwbAndU3Kz4Q+eG

In order to use the API, you need to generate a pair of unique API keys:

  1. Sign in to your futures account.
  2. Click on your name on the upper-right corner.
  3. Select "Settings" from the drop-down menu.
  4. Select the "Create Key" tab in the API panel.
  5. There are two options when generating API keys with differing levels of access:

    General API:

    No Access: This key does not allow any access to any endpoints. (This option could be selected if you only wanted a key with access to withdraw digital assets.)

    Read Only: This is a read-only key and allows accessing only endpoints that do not write to the server.

    Full Access: This is a master key and allows accessing all endpoints, excluding digital asset withdrawals.

    Withdrawal API:

    No Access: This key is does not allow access to digital asset withdrawals.

    Full Access: This key allows access to digital asset withdrawals.

  6. Press the "Create Key" button.

  7. View your Public and Private keys and record them somewhere safe.

Limits

Up to 50 keys can be created with distinct nonces.

API Testing Environment

To allow clients to test their API implementation, we have API functionality in our futures demo environment publicly available that is completely separate from the production environment and does not require existing account credentials.

In order to get started, just navigate to:

https://demo-futures.kraken.com/

Click the Sign Up button and an e-mail and password combination will be generated for you by the platform.

Review the Demo Environment Terms & Conditions and Kraken Privacy Policy before accepting.

Note the credentials so that you may re-use them if desired.

Once these steps are completed, select 'Complete Sign-Up' to create your Demo account

Once you have signed up, you can generate API keys for the purpose of testing.

The WebSocket and HTTP API code on this environment is identical to the live production code in terms of the feeds/endpoints and the response structure.

You may also use the Github repository which has libraries coded for multiple common programming languages.

The only difference between the demo API behaviour and that of the live production environment is that the base URL is not futures.kraken.com but instead demo-futures.kraken.com.

Examples

Example: subscribe to WebSocket ticker feeds by sending:

{
  "event": "subscribe",
  "feed": "ticker",
  "product_ids": [
    "PI_XBTUSD",
    "FI_ETHUSD_210625"
  ]
}

On the demo, for the WebSocket API you would subscribe to:

wss://demo-futures.kraken.com/ws/v1

All the feeds are identical to those documented above.

For a similar exercise via the HTTP API you would request:

https://demo-futures.kraken.com/derivatives/api/v3/tickers

Please note that when you have successfully tested in the demo environment, the base URL in the live production platform environment works with

futures.kraken.com.

API URLs

To access the HTTP API's endpoints, HTTP calls need to be sent to endpoints under:

To subscribe to a WebSocket feed, establish a WebSocket connection to:

wss://futures.kraken.com/ws/v1

Note: The direct access URLs for IP whitelisting are different, see IP whitelisting below.

Kraken Futures IP whitelisting for direct access

API/programmatic traders can connect directly to the exchange server to improve latency and performance by whitelisting up to 15 IP addresses.

The servers to connect through whitelisted addresses are as follows:

Kraken Futures reserves the right to remove any IP addresses from the whitelist at any time and for any reason.

HTTP API

HTTP API Introduction

Authentication

Authentication example

Inclusion of HTTP headers in Java where apiKey, nonce, and authent are determined as described in this section. For full working examples in different programming languages, see Sample Implementations.


String url = "https://futures.kraken.com/derivatives/api/v3/sendOrder";


URL obj = new URL(url);
HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) obj.openConnection();
...
con.setRequestProperty("APIKey", apiKey);
con.setRequestProperty("Nonce", nonce);
con.setRequestProperty("Authent", authent);

Calls to endpoints requiring authentication must include the following HTTP headers: APIKey and Authent. A third header, Nonce, may also be included (this is optional).

Header name Value
APIKey Public api key (not the secret!) required
Authent Authentication string required
Nonce A unique incrementing nonce optional

Some HTTP endpoints allow performing sensitive operations such as placing orders or requesting a digital asset withdrawal. These private endpoints can therefore be called only through encrypted requests, and an authentication string (Authent) must be included in each such request. Authent is computed from the following inputs:

PostData

postData is a & concatenation in the form <argument>=<value> and is specific to each HTTP endpoint.

Example: To operate the endpoint orderbook you choose the argument symbol with value fi_xbtusd_180615. postData is then given by symbol=fi_xbtusd_180615.

Update: Authentication Flow for v3 endpoints: As of 20th February 2024, to align with best practices and ensure a higher security standard, we are updating the authentication flow for /derivatives/* endpoints. (details below)

PostData Generation Changes: - Before release: Users were required to hash query string parameters before url-encoding for Authent generation, e.g., greeting=hello world. - After release: The authentication process will now require hashing the full, url-encoded URI component as it appears in the request, e.g., greeting=hello%20world. This update is particularly relevant for the batchorder endpoint, which accepts a JSON body in its query parameters.

Backward Compatibility and Future Plans: For the time being, this change is backward compatible. The API will accept both Authent generation methods described above. However, we aim to phase out the old method (hashing decoded query string parameters) in the future to maintain the highest security standards. We will provide ample notice ahead of this change and strongly encourage all users to transition to the new method as soon as possible to ensure seamless service continuity.

Nonce

Nonce is a continuously incrementing integer parameter. A good nonce is your system time in milliseconds (in string format). Our system tolerates nonces that are out of order for a brief period of time. Nonce is not required.

Example: 1415957147987

Many authentication issues are related with incorrect Nonce. A new pair of api keys will automatically reset the nonce and resolve these issues.

Endpoint Path

endpointPath This is the URL extension of the endpoint.

If an endpointPath starts with "/derivatives" it should not be included when Authent is being computed.

Example: /api/v3/orderbook

API Secret

The api_secret is obtained as described under generate-api-keys.

Example: rttp4AzwRfYEdQ7R7X8Z/04Y4TZPa97pqCypi3xXxAqftygftnI6H9yGV+OcUOOJeFtZkr8mVwbAndU3Kz4Q+eG

Authent

Based on these inputs, Authent needs to be computed as follows:

  1. Concatenate postData + Nonce + endpointPath
  2. Hash the result of step 1 with the SHA-256 algorithm
  3. Base64-decode your api_secret
  4. Use the result of step 3 to hash the result of the step 2 with the HMAC-SHA-512 algorithm
  5. Base64-encode the result of step 4

Request Limits

Example

The following shows the return of call of the sendorder endpoint where the API limit has been exceeded.

{
  "result": "error",
  "serverTime": "2016-02-25T09:45:53.818Z",
  "error": "apiLimitExceeded"
}

Request limits are determined from cost associated with each API call and rate limiting budgets depend on which path the endpoint uses. Public endpoints do not have a cost and therefore do not count against any rate limiting budget. For /derivatives endpoints, clients can spend up to 500 every 10 seconds.

The below table displays the cost associated with each API call for /derivatives endpoints:

Endpoint Cost
sendorder 10
editorder 10
cancelorder 10
batchorder 9 + size of batch
accounts 2
openpositions 2
fills (without lastFillTime specified) 2
fills (with lastFillTime specified) 25
cancelallorders 25
cancelallordersafter 25
withdrawaltospotwallet 100
openorders 2
orders/status 1
unwindqueue 200
GET leveragepreferences 2
PUT leveragepreferences 10
GET pnlpreferences 2
PUT pnlpreferences 10
assignmentprogram/readandagree 10
assignmentprogram/current 50
assignmentprogram/delete 50
assignmentprogram/history 50
assignmentprogram/add 100
transfer 10
transfer/subaccount 10
subaccount/{subaccountUid}/trading-enabled 2
self-trade-strategy 2

On the Batch Order endpoint, the cost is 9 + size of the batch of the requests. For example, a batch of 10 order requests, (send, edit, and or cancel) sent through the Batch Order endpoint would cost 19.

If the API limit is exceeded, the API will return error equal to apiLimitExceeded.

For /history endpoints, clients have a pool of up to 100 tokens that continually replenishes at a rate of 100 every 10 minutes.

The below table displays the cost associated with each API call for /history endpoints. The accountlog rate limit cost varies on the optional 'count' parameter (default count is 500):

Endpoint Cost
historicalorders 1
historicaltriggers 1
historicalexecutions 1
accounglogcsv 6
accountlog (count: 1 - 25) 1
accountlog (count: 26 - 50) 2
accountlog (count: 51 - 1000) 3
accountlog (count: 1001 - 5000) 6
accountlog (count: 5001 - 100000) 10

Calls and Returns

Calls

Calls to endpoints that do not change the state of the server should be submitted with request type GET and with request parameters submitted in the URL. Calls to endpoints that do change the state of the server should be submitted with request type POST or PUT and with request parameters submitted in the request body.

Returns

Example response of a successful call to the sendorder endpoint.

{
  "result": "success",
  "serverTime": "2016-02-25T09:45:53.818Z",
  "sendStatus": {
    "receivedTime": "2016-02-25T09:45:53.601Z",
    "status": "placed",
    "order_id": "c18f0c17-9971-40e6-8e5b10df05d422f0"
  }
}

The API's returns are in JSON format. If the call was successful, the return includes the requested information or feedback on the requested action.

If a call was successful, the result key in the root structure will have the value success.

Example response of a successful call to the sendorder endpoint where the desired operation was not performed.

{
   "result":"success",
   "serverTime":"2016-02-25T09:45:53.818Z",
   "sendStatus":{
      "receivedTime":"2016-02-25T09:45:53.601Z",
      "status":"insufficientAvailableFunds"
   }
}

Note that if a call comes back with result equal to success, this merely means that the request has been received and assessed successfully. It does not necessarily mean that the desired operation has been performed. Details on the operation's status are returned in a status key, where applicable.

Trading (v3) API

Public API for Mars including primary trade endpoints.

Account Information

Get wallets

GET
https://futures.kraken.com/derivatives/api/v3/accounts

This endpoint returns key information relating to all your accounts which may either be cash accounts or margin accounts. This includes digital asset balances, instrument balances, margin requirements, margin trigger estimates and auxiliary information such as available funds, PnL of open positions and portfolio value.

Field Description Type Default
orderType
Order type:

- lmt - a limit order, - post - a post-only limit order, - take_profit - a take profit order or - stp - a stop order - trailing_stop - a trailing stop order
String
enum: "lmt", "ioc", "post", "stp", "take_profit"
order_tag
An arbitrary string provided client-side to tag the order for the purpose of mapping order sending instructions to the API's response. String
side
The direction of the order. String
enum: "buy", "sell"
size
The size associated with the order. Number
symbol
The symbol of the Futures. String
cliOrdId
optional
The order identity that is specified from the user. It must be globally unique. String
max str len: 100
limitPrice
optional
The limit price associated with the order. If placing a trailing_stop order then leave undefined. Number
order
optional
Always send. String
value: "send"
reduceOnly
optional
Set as 'true' if you wish the order to only reduce an existing position. Any order which increases an existing position will be rejected. Default 'false'. Boolean false
stopPrice
optional
The stop price associated with a stop order. Required if orderType is stp. Note that for stp orders, limitPrice is also required and denotes the worst price at which the stp order can get filled Number
trailingStopDeviationUnit
optional
Required if the order type is trailing_stop.

This defines how the trailing trigger price is calculated from the requested trigger signal. For example, if the max deviation is set to 10, the unit is 'PERCENT', and the underlying order is a sell, then the trigger price will never be more then 10% below the trigger signal. Similarly, if the deviation is 100, the unit is 'QUOTE_CURRENCY', the underlying order is a sell, and the contract is quoted in USD, then the trigger price will never be more than $100 below the trigger signal.
String
enum: "PERCENT", "QUOTE_CURRENCY"
trailingStopMaxDeviation
optional
Required if the order type is trailing_stop.

Is the maximum distance the trailing stop's trigger price may trail behind the requested trigger signal. It defines the threshold at which the trigger price updates.
Number
triggerSignal
optional
String

Object fields:

Field Description Type
cliOrdId
optional
Unique client order identifier. Null or String
max str len: 100
limitPrice
optional
The limit price associated with the order. Number
order
optional
Always edit. String
value: "edit"
order_id
optional
Order ID. String
format: uuid
size
optional
The size associated with the order. Number
stopPrice
optional
The stop price associated with a stop order. Required if old orderType is stp.

Note that for stp orders, limitPrice is also required and denotes the worst price at which the stp order can get filled.
Number
trailingStopDeviationUnit
optional
Only relevant for trailing stop orders.

This defines how the trailing trigger price is calculated from the requested trigger signal. For example, if the max deviation is set to 10, the unit is 'PERCENT', and the underlying order is a sell, then the trigger price will never be more then 10% below the trigger signal. Similarly, if the deviation is 100, the unit is 'QUOTE_CURRENCY', the underlying order is a sell, and the contract is quoted in USD, then the trigger price will never be more than $100 below the trigger signal.
String
enum: "PERCENT", "QUOTE_CURRENCY"
trailingStopMaxDeviation
optional
Only relevant for trailing stop orders. Maximum value of 50%, minimum value of 0.1% for 'PERCENT' 'maxDeviationUnit'.

Is the maximum distance the trailing stop's trigger price may trail behind the requested trigger signal. It defines the threshold at which the trigger price updates.

Dead man's switch

POST
https://futures.kraken.com/derivatives/api/v3/cancelallordersafter

This endpoint provides a Dead Man's Switch mechanism to protect the user from network malfunctions. The user can send a request with a timeout in seconds which will trigger a countdown timer that will cancel all user orders when timeout expires. The user has to keep sending request to push back the timeout expiration or they can deactivate the mechanism by specifying a timeout of zero (0).

The recommended mechanism usage is making a call every 15 to 20 seconds and provide a timeout of 60 seconds. This allows the user to keep the orders in place on a brief network failure, while keeping them safe in case of a network breakdown.

Edit order

POST
https://futures.kraken.com/derivatives/api/v3/editorder

This endpoint allows editing an existing order for a currently listed Futures contract.

When editing an order, if the trailingStopMaxDeviation and trailingStopDeviationUnit parameters are sent unchanged, the system will recalculate a new stop price upon successful order modification.

Authentication
Parameters
Parameter In Description Type Example
cliOrdId
optional
query The order identity that is specified from the user. It must be globally unique (Required if orderId is not included) String
limitPrice
optional
query The limit price associated with the order. Must not exceed the tick size of the contract. Number
orderId
optional
query ID of the order you wish to edit. (Required if CliOrdId is not included) String
processBefore
optional
query The time before which the request should be processed, otherwise it is rejected. String "2023-11-08T19:56:35.441899Z"
size
optional
query The size associated with the order Number
stopPrice
optional
query The stop price associated with a stop order. Required if old orderType is stp. Must not exceed tick size of the contract. Note that for stp orders, limitPrice is also required and denotes the worst price at which the stp order can get filled. Number
trailingStopDeviationUnit
optional
query Only relevant for trailing stop orders.

This defines how the trailing trigger price is calculated from the requested trigger signal. For example, if the max deviation is set to 10, the unit is 'PERCENT', and the underlying order is a sell, then the trigger price will never be more then 10% below the trigger signal. Similarly, if the deviation is 100, the unit is 'QUOTE_CURRENCY', the underlying order is a sell, and the contract is quoted in USD, then the trigger price will never be more than $100 below the trigger signal.
String
enum: "PERCENT", "QUOTE_CURRENCY"
trailingStopMaxDeviation
optional
query Only relevant for trailing stop orders. Maximum value of 50%, minimum value of 0.1% for 'PERCENT' 'maxDeviationUnit'.

Is the maximum distance the trailing stop's trigger price may trail behind the requested trigger signal. It defines the threshold at which the trigger price updates.
Number
min: **0.1
max: **50

Send order

POST
https://futures.kraken.com/derivatives/api/v3/sendorder

This endpoint allows sending a limit, stop, take profit or immediate-or-cancel order for a currently listed Futures contract.

Authentication
Parameters
Parameter In Description Type Example
orderType
query The order type:

- lmt - a limit order - post - a post-only limit order - mkt - an immediate-or-cancel order with 1% price protection - stp - a stop order - take_profit - a take profit order - ioc - an immediate-or-cancel order - trailing_stop - a trailing stop order
String
enum: "lmt", "post", "ioc", "mkt", "stp", "take_profit", "trailing_stop"
side
query The direction of the order String
enum: "buy", "sell"
size
query The size associated with the order. Note that different Futures have different contract sizes. Number
symbol
query The symbol of the Futures String
cliOrdId
optional
query The order identity that is specified from the user. It must be globally unique. String
max str len: 100
limitPrice
optional
query The limit price associated with the order. Note that for stop orders, limitPrice denotes the worst price at which the stp or take_profit order can get filled at. If no limitPrice is provided the stp or take_profit order will trigger a market order. If placing a trailing_stop order then leave undefined. Number
limitPriceOffsetUnit
optional
query Can only be set together with limitPriceOffsetValue. This defines the unit for the relative limit price distance from the trigger's stopPrice. String
enum: "QUOTE_CURRENCY", "PERCENT"
limitPriceOffsetValue
optional
query Can only be set for triggers, e.g. order types take_profit, stop and trailing_stop. If set, limitPriceOffsetUnit must be set as well. This defines a relative limit price depending on the trigger stopPrice. The price is determined when the trigger is activated by the triggerSignal. The offset can be positive or negative, there might be restrictions on the value depending on the limitPriceOffsetUnit. Number
processBefore
optional
query The time before which the request should be processed, otherwise it is rejected. String "2023-11-08T19:56:35.441899Z"
reduceOnly
optional
query Set as true if you wish the order to only reduce an existing position.

Any order which increases an existing position will be rejected. Default false.
Boolean
stopPrice
optional
query The stop price associated with a stop or take profit order.

Required if orderType is stp or take_profit, but if placing a trailing_stop then leave undefined. Note that for stop orders, limitPrice denotes the worst price at which the stp or take_profit order can get filled at. If no limitPrice is provided the stp or take_profit order will trigger a market order.
Number
trailingStopDeviationUnit
optional
query Required if the order type is trailing_stop.

This defines how the trailing trigger price is calculated from the requested trigger signal. For example, if the max deviation is set to 10, the unit is 'PERCENT', and the underlying order is a sell, then the trigger price will never be more then 10% below the trigger signal. Similarly, if the deviation is 100, the unit is 'QUOTE_CURRENCY', the underlying order is a sell, and the contract is quoted in USD, then the trigger price will never be more than $100 below the trigger signal.
String
enum: "PERCENT", "QUOTE_CURRENCY"
trailingStopMaxDeviation
optional
query Required if the order type is trailing_stop. Maximum value of 50%, minimum value of 0.1% for 'PERCENT' 'maxDeviationUnit'.

Is the maximum distance the trailing stop's trigger price may trail behind the requested trigger signal. It defines the threshold at which the trigger price updates.
Number
min: **0.1
max: **50
triggerSignal
optional
query If placing a stp, take_profit or trailing_stop, the signal used for trigger.

- mark - the mark price - index - the index price - last - the last executed trade
String
enum: "mark", "spot", "last"
