To short a coin in any exchange you should have your account balance funded and you should also use leverage. Using leverage lets you borrow the coins you want to short from the exchange.

This is very strange and I feel like it's not something to do with cookies. Could you be using an addon for Chrome or Firefox (whichever browser you're using when you get that problem) which for some reason confuses the HTML code of Kraken with something else and anchors its chart on the Kraken's page?

It's 100% sure though that this problem doesn't have to do with Kraken itself, it's something that could happen with any page.

Just had the chance to use the "trade.kraken.com" link that you mentioned above. Didn't know that something like that existed in Kraken (yes, I've been absent for quite some time from this thread  ) and I must say that I'm liking the minimalist look of it. There's a "Connect" buttong on the right part of it and I'm wondering if I'll be able to trade in that same link if I try to login into it or will I be transferred to the original trading site of Kraken?

Thanks for the trade.kraken.com link, haven't been using Kraken for a while.

About main site and trading, i see my accounts $-balance at the top of the page and cryptowatch but can't see funds available for new orders (balance includes already open orders).
From where i can find available funds for new orders (obviously needed when placing new orders if i want to use them all at once).

Thanks

Nevermindthebotox,

It is true that your balance is not updated if you have any open orders, though the same can be said for the main site, as well. In this case, you'll need to check your open orders to calculate your available balance.

In regards to the AAPL chart issue, our developers are still working on a complete fix for this. If you're interested in viewing the Kraken markets on the main Tradingview website, you'll want to input "KRAKEN:" and all of our available markets will appear in the drop-down menu.

As the proceeding turned to a rehabilitation process, no more default, you have to fill again a new claim in the mt.gox site, to be there when the exchange will turn back.

If you log in and follow the procedure (as you just filled a claim) most of the info are recovered from previous fill, so needed only 10 minutes to do the operation again.
On the site itself, links to documents from the attorney to help explaining how to do it.

Well done it's cool to see Kraken adding new assets. Still my favourite EUR exchange since years. I hope to see more coins and bigger volumes!!

Adding Cardano and Qtum was a good choice, adding Tezos a less one. No idea why Kraken hasn't listed Horizen yet. Perhaps a street protest with people and signs outside the doors of Kraken offices added to a couple of CNN journalists in cameras. This is something we can organize easily.

On the November 15 2018 Bitcoin Cash hard fork

Bitcoin Cash will hard fork on November 15 2018 around 4:40 pm UTC as part of a scheduled protocol upgrade. This upgrade is more controversial than previous ones and may result in multiple viable chains after the fork.

Initially Kraken will only support Bitcoin ABC, which follows the Bitcoin Cash upgrade roadmap published by bitcoincash.org. On November 15 Kraken will prepare its Bitcoin Cash (BCH) wallets to be Bitcoin ABC specific so that coins from any alternative chains will be retained and not sent out from our wallets in withdrawals. We will not support any alternative chains for funding or trading on the day of the fork. We will then monitor the situation in the weeks and months after the fork and evaluate whether or not any changes to our stance are warranted, including the possibility of supporting an alternative chain. However, we make no promise or guarantee that any alternative chain will be supported. Clients who want perfect control should withdraw their BCH from Kraken prior to the fork.

For more details, please read our most recent blog post on the upcoming November 15 Bitcoin Cash (BCH) hard fork: https://blog.kraken.com/post/1917/on-the-november-15-2018-bitcoin-cash-hard-fork/
