Does investing-algorithm-framework work with Kraken?

The investing-algorithm-framework README does not name Kraken directly, but it names ccxt, the exchange library that ships a Kraken adapter. Whether the bot's own code handles Kraken's rules (symbols, order types, rate limits) is not something a README scan can tell. We did not run the bot against Kraken: this page reports what the public code says and what the exchange itself publishes.

What the audit says about running it live

Audit scheduled

When the investing-algorithm-framework audit is finished, this section will show the verdicts for API key permissions, orphaned stops, reconnection, order rejection handling and position reconciliation: the five controls that matter most once a live key is connected.

Before you connect a key

Create the API key with trading enabled and withdrawals disabled, and restrict it to your server's IP if Kraken allows it.
Start in paper or dry-run mode if the bot has one (the README mentions it).
Decide the maximum loss per day before the first order and check the bot can enforce it: see the circuit breaker control. If it cannot, the watchdog enforces it from outside with a read-only key.
