WebSocket API v1 Private Feeds - ownTrades
The WebSocket API v1 ownTrades feed is a private account management feed, that provides a real time notification of all trades that are executed by your Kraken account.
Every trade that occurs as a result of one of your orders will cause a new message to be sent via the ownTrades feed.

How to subscribe

Once a connection to the WebSocket API v1 has been established, the ownTrades feed can be subscribed to by retrieving an authentication token via the REST API GetWebSocketsToken endpoint, and then sending a subscription message like the following:
  • {"event":"subscribe", "subscription":{"name":"ownTrades", "token":"WOg6IVQ5RfogMzkhH25WOg6IVQ5RqhP+U3ZprQVnh7f"}}

Example feed

Upon subscribing to the ownTrades feed, a subscription status message is received:
  • {"channelName":"ownTrades","event":"subscriptionStatus","status":"subscribed","subscription":{"name":"ownTrades"}}
followed by a snapshot with details of any recently executed trades for the account:
  • [[{"T7YS4M-6HGBO-GDAGOY":{"cost":"70.19110","fee":"0.18250","margin":"0.00000","ordertxid":"OPJVQI-PXMPK-4WT5WP","ordertype":"market","pair":"XBT/USD","postxid":"TKH2SE-M7IF5-CFI7LT","price":"8092.20053","time":"1570270020.122169","type":"buy","vol":"0.00867392"}},{"TNN4V7-BTS6X-O3CQF3":{"cost":"54.00046","fee":"0.14040","margin":"0.00000","ordertxid":"OKIRSX-DUS37-W33QZN","ordertype":"market","pair":"XBT/USD","postxid":"TKH2SE-M7IF5-CFI7LT","price":"8090.59895","time":"1570269988.387027","type":"sell","vol":"0.00667447"}}], "ownTrades"]
When any new trades are executed, messages are received providing the details of the trades. The following messages indicate two separate trades, which initially opened a long ETH position on ETHUSD, and shortly afterwards closed the position:
  • [[{"T7GUL2-5N7YZ-QVQDCJ":{"cost":"0.35002","fee":"0.00098","margin":"0.07000","ordertxid":"OMBOUS-KM52J-NGDZH6","ordertype":"market","pair":"ETH/USD","posstatus":"Opened","postxid":"TKH2SE-M7IF5-CFI7LT","price":"175.01000","time":"1570447638.474936","type":"buy","vol":"0.00200000"}}],"ownTrades"]
