Steps

01Final pre-flight check

Review the deployment name, selected strategy, trading pair, capital allocation, and risk limits. Confirm your Kraken exchange connection is active and the account has sufficient funds.

02Deploy the strategy

Click 'Deploy'. Confirm in the deployment modal. Your strategy transitions from 'draft' to 'deploying', then to 'active' once initialization completes and it begins monitoring market conditions.

03Monitor initial activity

Watch the strategy's activity feed for the first 15-30 minutes. You'll see status updates as it analyzes market data.

04Wait for first trade

Depending on entry conditions, first trade may take minutes or hours. Check notifications for trade alerts.

05Review trade execution

Once a trade executes, view details in Trades section: entry price, size, and timestamp. Verify it matches your expectations.
