Description

Traded yesterday kraken.BCH-EUR and started with 0,15 BCH and 0 EUR. After first sell execution zenbot showed 0 BCH and 0 EUR. So neither trade nor "zenbot buy" was possible due to missing Euro. I double checked at kraken that the values were not right and bought manually BCH with EUR. Then I tried again with the trading and same issue repeated.

So looks to me this is a bug I didn't see before with any asset/currency pair. Can somebody confirm?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the sell trade execution logic in zenbot, specifically how the balance is updated after a sell. Check the Kraken adapter and the order book handling to see why the EUR balance is not correctly reflected.
