Does StockSharp work with Kraken?
The StockSharp README names Kraken as a supported exchange (README scanned 2026-09-17). 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 StockSharp 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 does not mention one).
- 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.
