The account logs file and the logs tab on futures have various fields and possible entry items.
To download the log file on Kraken Pro, navigate to the Export page whilst signed in and change the "Product" to "Futures", then filter the start and end date, and click the "Submit" button.
For each trade, there are two log entries: one which reflects the change to the balance of the futures wallet, and the other which reflects the change to the position. The respective changes to each are labelled as 'Balance' and 'Position' in the descriptions below.
