Kraken probes inaccurate estimated liquidation prices on Kraken Pro

Kraken said it is investigating a problem that caused some clients to see incorrect estimated liquidation prices for perpetual futures positions on Kraken Pro’s web and mobile platforms. The exchange did not say how many accounts were affected or whether the displayed figures led to any erroneous liquidations.

The disclosure matters less for what Kraken confirmed than for what it left open: the scope of affected accounts and whether any actual liquidations followed from the bad figures. Estimated liquidation prices are a core risk-management signal for leveraged perpetuals traders, so a display fault on that specific metric touches trust in the platform's risk tooling, not just its UI. The open question is whether Kraken's post-mortem clarifies the cause and whether any erroneous liquidations occurred — that distinction separates a cosmetic glitch from a client-harm event.
