When using Kraken as your exchange, you may notice the letters F or S appearing next to some of your assets in your account overview.

Letter F - Futures Position

If you see the letter F next to an asset, this indicates it's a Futures position. Please note that Cryptohopper bot is unable to use these positions for trading.

Letter S - Staking Position

If you see the letter S next to an asset, this indicates that you are staking these assets. Cryptohopper bot is unable to use these staked positions for trading.
