Kraken is a US-based cryptocurrency exchange known for its security track record and support for a wide range of cryptocurrencies. It offers spot trading, futures, and margin trading and is popular with both retail and more experienced crypto traders.
This guide explains how to pull a clean trade history export from Kraken, what to watch for in file formatting, and how Tradapt turns those rows into dashboards you can trust. Import method for most users today: CSV or spreadsheet export from your broker or platform. You can always pair imports with manual entries if a subset of trades needs extra context the export does not capture.
Whether you are journaling for discipline, building a track record for capital partners, or tightening execution after a drawdown, the bottleneck is rarely analytics — it is reliable data entry. CSV import removes that friction while keeping you in control of what gets uploaded.
Follow the steps below in order. Menus change with platform updates, but the goal is always the same: a file that lists executed trades with timestamps, symbols, direction, size, and price. If your export includes cash movements or dividends, filter those rows out before import so statistics stay aligned with closed trades.
Once trades land in Tradapt, they feed the same analytics stack every customer uses: expectancy, profit factor, average win and loss, streak analysis, time-of-day filters, and account-level drawdown views. You can attach screenshots, emotions, and playbook rules so the numbers tell a story instead of ending on a chart alone.
Because you trade through Kraken, you will see fills across crypto spot, crypto futures, crypto margin. Tradapt keeps that context when you filter by session, tag setups, and compare accounts.
Kraken's trade export separates spot trades and futures trades into different exports. Run separate exports for each and import them individually into Tradapt if you trade on both.
Start on the free plan — no card required. Upload your first export, explore analytics, and upgrade when you need more AI credits, storage, or other paid features.
Create your journalYes. Export your trade history from Kraken as CSV using the steps on this page, then upload it in Tradapt under Journal → Import CSV. Tradapt detects many common broker export layouts automatically.
Tradapt is built for journaling and analytics across crypto spot, crypto futures, crypto margin and similar markets. After import you can tag setups, review win rate and profit factor, and segment by symbol or session.
Most files process in seconds to a few minutes depending on size. Very large histories may take longer; you will see a preview before confirming the import.
Your files are used to populate your private Tradapt journal. Follow standard security practices: download exports on trusted devices and revoke sharing links if you use trade sharing features.
