Trade, win and feast

Opt in and place your first trade; every position counts toward your leaderboard score.
Why trade U.S. futures with Kraken
Kraken Derivatives US gives you direct access to regulated CME crypto futures through NinjaTrader Clearing. Trade micro-sized bitcoin, ether and SOL contracts, as well as tradfi futures (such as stocks [S&P 500, NASDAQ], gold, oil, natural gas and more) with flexibility, capital efficiency and professional-grade risk controls.
With real-time margining, transparent pricing and daily settlement, U.S. futures are built to help you go long or short with confidence — all from your existing Kraken account.
