The support has just contacted me to explain the problem ... it seems that my wire is stuck somewhere in intermediary banks, and the investigations can take from 2 to 4 weeks... ouch!  ... I hope this won't  happen again for a long time!   
Should I wait the solution of this issue before trying to make another wire? 

Thank you Dargo.

All my withdrawals were quick, actually, I think the longest one was my 1st (1st took 3 business days, my last one was credited to my bank account the next business day, using SEPA). Anyways, delays might occur from the receiving bank as well, depending on the amount. Banks are sometimes very cautious when it comes to receiving repeated funds that are not exactly "salary" into personal accounts.

Seems I'm having problems withdrawing also.
3x withdrawals made on 7th 8th January which have failed to appear in my account unfortunately.

All details have been checked and verified as correct also.

Dargo, have sent you a PM also as support seem unresponsive.

Cheers

Does the Kraken public API support CORS?

Hey everyone, I created a Kraken app for Windows Phone 8 I made a thread about it here: https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/416005.0. Note that this is not an official app.

Tier 4 is available for individuals, not just companies. To inquire about tier 4 for individuals, you will (gasp!) have to submit a support ticket about it. Support is still running slow, but it's improving.

We're not increasing limits for all of tier 3. We will essentially have an alternative tier 3 that has higher limits, but people who are at the old tier 3 won't convert over to this automatically. Saying that it's coming "very soon" is a bit of a stretch I'd say. It's probably a few weeks away at least. 

thanks Dargo for clarification, let us know (the old Tier 3) when this upgrade will be ready and We can start to apply via support. Currently I had to stop trading on kraken for a while to restore monthly limits

Avalaxy, what platform/language are you going to code? kraken auth process is quite complex but it is not a way more complex then the other exchanges. It is not hard to use currently provided examples and similar examples from other markets (there will be tons of them). In my signature you can find another language code to handle auth on kraken.
About api keys security, I believe there is no better alternative now to be used.

Well in my case the situation looks very bleak.

Having had contact from Kraken support agents, the problem has potential been identified as to why my withdrawals have disappeared. Whilst initiating the transfers and setting the account up, I spoke to my local bank over the phone to confirm IBAN BIC etc. Was stated that I would need to use an intermediary bank, BIC for such provided but no bank name address could be given for this intermediary bank. When quizzed if this would cause a problem was uncategorically assured that there would be no problems with no giving the further detail.

As it so happens this is not the case; if your bank requires an intermediary bank to be used, YOU MUST ENTER THEIR ADDRESS! Support investigating accordingly, but likely going to be a few weeks before I see this money again.

....and to top it all off, have just found out that my SEPA IBAN detail which was given to me by my bank yesterday, WAS ALSO WRONG. So a second payment was issued to an incorrect IBAN. Bloody banks are horrendous, I tell you.

Dargo, whilst I understand you're likely swamped with support requests. Any assistance you could offer to escalate tickets #17077 and #16784 would be greatly appreciated.

Sigh!

Any luck asking for higher limits? I've "pitched" my algo because they were reluctant to up the limits on account of my balance being small, but i'm still waiting on the response. I'm would like to now what kind of a rates i should think of for a volume of around 10-20K usd per day.


Related to this, i understand kraken values its trading engine resources highly. I really think you should krank down the decimals allowed for prices. 5 decimals
at 600 eur per btc is insignificantly low compared to transaction cost and spread, especially with these kinds of volumes.  I sometimes see bots trying to outbid eachother for 0.00001 price differences, which does almost nothing for the spread nor trading volume but takes up just as much resources nonetheless. Incidentally it also makes it much easier to see what average price at size is going to be when looking at the orderbook.

I'd say 2 decimals is more then enough, which is relatively still higher then the ticksize in fiat forex, where volume is much higher, volatility lower and transaction cost much smaller. Also bitstamp does it succesfully being one of the biggest players.

Anyone wants to weigh in on this?

edit: Another thing about the api, it seems to me that calls for account balance/trade history/open orders is much less intensive to your system, as this is just a read operation. Maybe it's an idea to have a separate limit for these calls, or let them count towards your limit fractionally or something. To me higher limits are mainly necessary to know faster whether my orders are filled yet this takes away from the amount of orders i can do right now.
