what's the current delay for fidor <->kraken fiat transfers?
afaik bitcoin.de(which also uses fidor) was working with fidor to make them basically realtime. Is kraken working on a similar arangement?

The transfers themselves are basically instant. But a site update is required for them to show in your account. Last I heard, the site update was being done a few times a day. Eventually we'll automate the site updates so they'll be done every hour or so, but I'm not sure when that will happen.

Hi Everyone - we are working on a major re-design for the site (no, I don't know when it will come out).

Part of the re-design will involve an overhaul of the order pages. Please speak up with your wish list on how you would like to see the order forms, display of data, workflows, etc. changed. For example, when you're placing a trade in the order book, what other information would you like to have at your fingertips that's not at your fingertips with the current design? What I've seen so far is a more compact order form on the left of the screen, with the order book and other info on the right. There will in general be a lot more information available on the screen when placing an order, with at least some degree of customization possible. And of course the drop-down chart will be much improved. But nothing is really set in stone at this point, so speak up with your feature requests. I won't have time to reply to all the posts, but I'll make a record of all the requests. 

Something I am really missing and am used to(on a stock trading website I use) is a good overview of my positions.

Things I definitely want to know:
- Amount of each position/coin
- Unrealised profit & percentage
- Average historical buy price
- Historical value
- Current value

Information about my performance vs. market and downloading historical data to excel would be nice.

Well, I do understand your point of view. You are in the trading business and earning money when customers make a trade. Fair enough.

I just like bitcoin to succeed and have a feeling that adding coins that do not 'add' something and are based on a meme do not help with adaptation to use bitcoin as a currency by the general public. What if the fun is over? Will the media take the opportunity to use dogecoin as an 'example' how silly virtual currency are? There are already news reports talking about dogecoin price drops and then explain that the name is derived from a meme... People that are not so technical don't understand bitcoin already, explaining what dogecoin is.. well..

Sure, maybe dogecoin does add something(to use it for 'tips' on reddit for example), but compared to bitcoin and litecoin, dogecoin is still very young. Biggest part of those 65k+ subscribers are probably there since the beginning. Hashrate is still very high because until now it is the most profitable coin on mining pools(even on switcher coin) and people get paid in litecoin. When dogecoin price is not rocketing anymore and the mining payout is halved, it will become less profitable and people will switch.

We have already seen on cryptsy that the more coins they added, the lower the volume for each coin became and the less interesting it was to trade a particular coin. This is what I see happening on the dutch kraken community. People start to trade at other exchanges because volume is better.

Cryptocurrencys are something new and we yet have to find correct 'settings'(eg. confirmation time) that work in a real life environment. Adding a coin that is innovative and does try something completely new like NXT(no I don't have any nxt..) would make sense. Dogecoin is just another fork(that get's forked also because of the super fast confirmation time..)


Anyway, I'm sure you guys thought it through like everything on your exchange and we'll see in future how it will work out..

More fun, easier, and has more utility than other crypto coins?  You have my attention, please enlighten us.  I think I own 6 Dogecoins.

There's a manual refresh button in the top right, next to the "current time" and "last updated" fields. It's the blue button with the 2 arrows in a circle. It refreshes things like order book and order status.

That is only your misinterpretation of what I said, go back and read it again

Oh my, that sounds more like cryptsy! Please enlighten us. Do you have any statistics? Real life experience? Meh, I doubt it. Kraken is becoming better and better. I'm trading here for several months now and they have the best support in the case something does happen.

Anyway, thank you for specially registering on this forum to post that message! We love people's opinion based on fiction(or what they would like to see?).
