Limit Buy Order:
Why Zenbot cancel an inserted order if price go down, but DON'T cancel inserted (limit) order if maker price go up far away from my order limit ?

Example: XMR-EUR price is NOW 208€, zenbot has inserted limit order to buy at 192€... this order will probabilly never filled

Thanks

I think the problem is Kraken timeout in kraken-api.
When an order is send the API call go in timeout but order is completed in Kraken, so zenbot loose reference to this order, and never get cancelled

I really think the kraken-api should be updated and timeout should be a option parameter in Zenbot

Kraken timeout issues are terrible now. I am looking for if it will cause troubles in zenbot. Anyone else having issues?

Yes all Kraken users have this kind of issue.
If you want continue use Kraken with Zenbot my suggestion for now is increase the kraken-api timeout at least
