What is cryptocurrency arbitrage?

Cryptocurrency arbitrage is a strategy of earning on cross-exchange price differences for the same asset, which involves buying cryptocurrency on one exchange at a lower price and selling it on another exchange at a higher price.

How to find arbitrage opportunities?

The Arbitrage Radar cryptocurrency scanner allows you to efficiently search for arbitrage opportunities, making the analysis process faster and more accurate. Finding opportunities manually is almost impossible, as you need to take into account many factors, including market changes, fees and asset availability on exchanges. Arbitrage Radar automates this process, quickly analyzing quotes on different platforms and identifying profitable opportunities. The scanner takes into account all fees associated with trading and asset transfers, as well as checks the availability of cryptocurrency deposits and withdrawals on each exchange. Notifications about suitable arbitrage opportunities are sent via Telegram, allowing traders to react quickly and maximize arbitrage opportunities.

How often do opportunities appear?

Arbitrage opportunities always exist, however, some of them have low liquidity. Some traders work with small liquidity. Those who prefer to avoid low-liquidity assets usually set up notifications and wait for favorable conditions. At the same time, high-liquidity opportunities are also not uncommon — especially during sharp market movements, regardless of the trend direction. In the futures arbitrage bot, there are more opportunities than in spot trading. In addition to earning on price differences, there is an additional opportunity — extracting profit from the difference in funding rates between exchanges.

What amount should I start with?

You can start with even $100, but it's worth considering that transfer fees in some networks can be quite high, and therefore you will be limited to only cheaper networks. In futures arbitrage, there are no transfer costs, however, your deposit must be distributed across at least two exchanges. Also, on futures you can use leverage. However, leverage should only be used by experienced arbitrageurs.

Which bot should I choose for arbitrage?

For beginners, we recommend the Futures Arbitrage Bot. Futures arbitrage is easier to master because it doesn't require the same reaction speed as spot arbitrage. It provides more opportunities thanks to a larger number of assets and the absence of the need to transfer tokens between exchanges. In addition, it carries fewer risks. The only drawback is that you need deposits on at least two exchanges to work. Spot arbitrage performs exceptionally well during periods of high volatility. In such moments, this tool becomes indispensable, so it should not be overlooked. During such periods, this tool is indispensable, so it's not worth neglecting it. 🎁 That's why when purchasing a monthly subscription, we now provide access to both bots at once. You no longer need to choose an arbitrage direction — use both tools

Why do you allow purchasing a lifetime subscription?

Unlike many similar scanners, we provide users with the opportunity to purchase a lifetime subscription. We consider it important to give traders freedom — not to rush and work at their own comfortable pace.

Why cryptocurrency arbitrage doesn't work without a scanner

Arbitrage is a race of reaction speed and calculation accuracy.

In 2026, manual arbitrage almost always loses for three reasons:

Speed
Price discrepancies usually live for a very short time. While a trader manually checks exchanges and calculates fees, the spread is already gone.
Competition
Most market participants use scanners. Without them, you see the market with a delay and enter the trade last.
Calculation errors
Fees, liquidity, slippage, different market types — a single inaccuracy turns a “nice spread” into a losing trade.

Without a scanner, a trader either arrives late or makes decisions based on incomplete data — and in both cases loses money.

Why Arbitrage Radar

Arbitrage Radar was created as a working tool for arbitrageurs who care about results, not the illusion of profit.

No marketing — only facts:

uses real market data instead of theoretical calculations
updates information in real time
has filtering by net profit, volume, fees and withdrawal networks

The scanner doesn’t promise “guaranteed income”. It does something else — it lets you see the market as it is and make decisions based on facts, not assumptions.

Which types of arbitrage the scanner supports

Spot arbitrage (CEX → CEX)

Spot arbitrage is a strategy where a trader buys cryptocurrency on one centralized exchange and sells it on another, earning on the price difference of the same asset. In practice, everything depends not on the spread itself but on the details: whether deposits and withdrawals are available, what fees the exchange charges, how liquid the order book is, and whether slippage will eat your profit. That is why in Arbitrage Radar inter-exchange arbitrage is calculated by net profit, not by “nice numbers”. The scanner takes into account deposit and withdrawal availability, trading and network fees, and immediately filters out opportunities that look profitable only on paper. The advantage of this approach is that you only need to keep USDT on one exchange instead of spreading your balance across all platforms. This reduces risk and makes capital management easier — especially for beginner arbitrage traders.

Try

Futures arbitrage (FUTURES → FUTURES / SPOT → FUTURES)

Futures arbitrage is built on the price difference between futures contracts and the spot market, or between futures on different exchanges. Unlike classic inter-exchange arbitrage, here you do not need to transfer assets between platforms, which removes the problem of blockchain delays. However, this strategy has its own specifics: to work you need to keep a deposit on at least two exchanges at the same time and carefully monitor margin and liquidation risks. An additional source of income in futures arbitrage is the funding rate. These are periodic payments between longs and shorts that allow you to earn even when the price moves sideways. Arbitrage Radar helps to find such opportunities and shows real profitability taking the funding rate into account, not just the difference in quotes. This is especially important in a highly competitive environment where a mistake in calculations quickly turns a strategy into an unprofitable one.

Try

DEX arbitrage

Arbitrage between centralized and decentralized exchanges is one of the riskiest, but potentially most profitable strategies. Most often such opportunities appear in non-standard situations: hacks, panic sell-offs, or when tokens are massively withdrawn to DEXs for quick sale. At these moments, sharp price distortions arise on decentralized platforms that are not immediately reflected on CEXs. As a result, a trader can: buy an asset on a DEX and sell it on a CEX, or vice versa, depending on market direction. But here it is critically important to take into account network fees, liquidity depth, and possible slippage. A large spread does not always mean real profit. The Arbitrage Radar scanner allows you to filter out obviously dangerous opportunities and focus on those where the calculation really works. This is especially important in DEX arbitrage, where the cost of an error is significantly higher than in classic CEX arbitrage.

Spread charts

The charts section is your tool for in-depth spread analysis. It allows you not just to monitor the spread in real time, but to see its dynamics compared to past situations. This means that every decision you make is not blind, but based on history and real data.

If you work with futures arbitrage, this tool will become your main assistant. Here you can easily track the recurrence of market scenarios, the speed of spread changes and the reaction of different exchanges — everything that helps build truly profitable strategies.

Intuitive charts turn dry numbers into clear visual hints. You find profitable entry points faster, reduce risks and feel confident in any market situation. With our service, analysis becomes not only effective but also convenient.
