Connect Kraken

Follow these steps to generate an API key on Kraken, set the right permissions, and whitelist our server IP.

Whitelist both IPs when creating your key

Alle-Quant routes through two fixed outbound IPs (US and EU). Add both to the whitelist so your key works regardless of which region handles your request.

44.215.192.6952.16.137.135

No demo account: Kraken does not offer a demo or paper trading environment. If you want to practice risk-free, use Binance or Bybit paper mode first, then connect Kraken live with a small amount.
