FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
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 arbitrage 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 ā 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 ā 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 in recent months has shown fewer opportunities and longer waits for suitable spreads during calm market periods. But during periods of high volatility, it performs excellently. During such periods, this tool is indispensable, so it's not worth neglecting it. š 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 ā 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 ā not to rush and work at their own comfortable pace.
