Trading US Futures on Kraken Pro as a NinjaTrader client

Last updated: June 15, 2026

What changed?

We’ve opened up futures on Kraken Pro for NinjaTrader clients. As an existing NinjaTrader client, you can now register for Kraken Pro and trade crypto and spot futures, all on one platform.

How do I get started?

To start trading US Futures on Kraken Pro:

  1. Verify your Kraken Pro account (takes just a few minutes)

  2. Transfer funds to your Kraken Pro Futures wallet

  3. Start trading Futures!

Why Kraken Pro?

  • One platform, everything you need: Trade crypto spot, margin, futures, and perpetual futures in a single account without switching between platforms.

  • Clear, transparent fees: Per-contract commissions. To view fees for a specific contract, select the ⓘ button next to any contract on the Trade page.

Important:

Kraken Pro and NinjaTrader accounts are separate, meaning you will have to withdraw your funds from NinjaTrader, then deposit your funds into Kraken Pro.

Futures and spot margin trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for everyone. You may lose all or more than the initial investment, exceeding the value of collateral deposited with the firm to open and maintain the position. You may be required to provide additional collateral on short notice or no notice, and you may remain responsible for any deficiency after liquidation and collateral application. Trading should be undertaken only with risk capital, funds that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle, and only by those who can afford such losses. While leverage can increase potential returns, it also significantly increases risk. Leverage available may vary by asset. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Availability of spot margin trading through Kraken Derivatives US is subject to certain limitations and eligibility criteria. View Risk Disclosure Statement.

U.S. Futures and spot margin trading is provided by NinjaTrader Clearing, LLC d/b/a Kraken Derivatives US, a CFTC-registered Futures Commission Merchant and NFA Member (NFA ID: 0309379), with financing provided by Payward Accredited LLC. View Disclosures.
