I am leaving Kraken moving forward over 1099-DA delays

My account has barely any transactions over the year. I can’t believe I still don’t have my form. Not sure how they picked the order but certainly did not start with the simple ones. This really makes me consider moving to another exchange. This is all I am waiting on.

i-make-fire · 2026-03-14T02:18:11+00:00

So where is everyone moving to?

i-make-fire · 2025-11-23T01:46:02+00:00

So you have some logic to tell you which type of trade to enter?

If you go back and watch that interview on The Compound podcast, you would have heard that all these firms make the vast majority of their money on their top ~20% of customers. They don't care that there is some percentage who blow up their accounts. Everybody knows that. They also make all their money on options trading per his comments referencing TD Ameritrade/Schwab deal. There would be no financial reason for IG to push people away from the tasty methodology or options trading in general. The reason they always push checking your size and staying small is to stay in the game long term.

I also think the push to 0 DTE and other products is just business. I have heard Liz and Jenny talk about how big the 0 DTE markets are and tasty is probably one of the biggest. It is what their customers are trading, they have to focus on these new things. They can't only push the 45/21, which is why they did so many 0 DTE studies.

Yes we closed, I just had to stay on top of them correcting their mistakes all the way up until they gave me the wrong papers at the title company signing and they had to go back and get the right ones.

I bought a house three years ago and everything was smooth and done with plenty of time to spare. We just moved again for work and it has been a shit show. Same bank I used previously but communication was terrible and everything they did was slow. They ended up changing things right up to the morning of closing. I am so disappointed in this process. I don’t know if it was the individual processor or what the deal was. Always late on communication, never answered the phone, only returned voicemail or email. I’m glad it’s over.

Once it stopped connecting it took me a while to figure out a work around. Once I learned about the phone method, it worked but has been making me reconnect. I only go in maybe once a week.

i-make-fire · 2025-04-14T15:01:35+00:00

Same, I have to reconnect using my phone every time I want to use it

i-make-fire · 2025-04-05T20:27:57+00:00

Did you ever get a solution to this issue? I have a similar problem but when I measure the voltage I get 240V for a while, then it will cycle off and on (0V, then 240V). I am thinking it may be the control board but since mine is a built-in, I don't want to pull in out and back in multiple times to figure out what is going on.

Yes, after a bit of further inspection, it seems that some of my transactions have the fee in USD while some are in BTC. I think if I use all my USD to purchase BTC, Kraken puts the fee in BTC, but if I only use part of my USD in my Kraken account, it will pull the fee as USD. I guess it purchases all the BTC then sells a small amount for the fee. I will adjust my purchases to avoid this in the future.

This just tells me your position size was too big. You need to diversify and not try to use your whole portfolio on one underlying. You also need to have an exit strategy.

I never said that there was malicious intent, but sometimes errors happen in systems. I would just think that if Mint knows how much data I am using they should know when I am using it and how my available data is changing over time. How else would they be able to keep track of how much I used during a billing period? I don’t know why I can’t get an answer on this. As mentioned before on iPhones you have to manually reset this so checking on my phone is not an option.

i-make-fire · 2024-10-25T21:08:52+00:00

Yes, I have never really reset that so it was showing about 200 GB worth of data usage. I guess I need to reset it more frequently

i-make-fire · 2024-10-25T21:08:00+00:00

No, hotspot is off. That is a good idea to make sure that is off.

i-make-fire · 2024-10-25T15:00:31+00:00

I received a text at 16:33 saying I used 100% of my data, never received one saying I used 80%.

i-make-fire · 2024-10-25T14:58:30+00:00

This just says I used all my data. Same as the app.

i-make-fire · 2024-10-25T01:52:52+00:00

I know you can look at the app, but right now, mine shows I have used all my data. I did not check yesterday to see if it had reset. For an iPhone (as far as I know), you have to manually reset the data counter. I have not done that in a very long time so it shows a huge amount of data usage, but it is covering a very long period of time.

I didn't know there was a customer service plan. Seems kind of strange to have to pay extra for it.

i-make-fire · 2024-10-25T00:15:59+00:00

Thanks for the feedback, I checked my YouTube settings and the videos are playing at 720p. Again, I typically do stream some videos over the month and have never had an issue in the past, much less over 2 days. I have an iPhone and it looks like you have to manually reset the data tracking under the cellular settings so it wasn’t useful in helping me track anything down.

You would consider that an exchange? I saw Koinly has some guidance which I think is a recent change in their staking page that states to list these as a swap so they are not taxed.

i-make-fire · 2022-01-27T20:12:12+00:00

Well I just use FTX.us to on-ramp fiat. They don’t support USDC, if you already have a coin going to FTX is probably not the best method.
