NinjaTrader x Kraken FAQ

Kraken will leverage NinjaTrader’s FCM license to offer crypto futures and derivatives in the US to Kraken clients, along with NinjaTrader’s existing US retail futures trading platform. Kraken clients will benefit from the ability to trade crypto futures in the US. Over time we will be able to introduce additional traditional asset classes, such as index, commodity, and contract futures for clients in the U.S. and other markets. Futures trading in the US, will be referred to as Kraken Derivatives US.

If you are a US Kraken client and you already have a NinjaTrader account, you can't currently trade futures on Kraken. We are working to update this and you will be able to do so soon! We will inform you via email once this becomes available to you.  

In the meantime, you can continue your futures trading at account.ninjatrader.com.
