Articles about Arbitron in crypto media.
What is Crypto Arbitrage
Where the price gap between two exchanges comes from, and why nobody catches it by hand.
How Arbitron Works
Trading Cards, the automated workflow, real-time data pipeline, and execution explained.
Understanding Spreads & Signals
How spreads are calculated, how to read signals on the dashboard, and how filtering and smart delivery work.
Signal Strength
Learn what the progress bar on signal cards means, how Signal Strength is calculated, and how to use it to find the most reliable trading opportunities.
Reading the Spread History chart
The lower panel of the spread chart plots two stepped lines — green and red. This article explains exactly what each line measures, why the red line is plotted with the sign flipped, and how backtest thresholds plus trade markers combine into a visual trading channel that reads at a glance.
Picking Pairs with Spread Charts
A practical step-by-step guide to using the Spread History chart to find the best trading pairs, read price behavior, and avoid common pitfalls.
Depth Multiplier
Understand how the Depth Multiplier validates real orderbook liquidity before opening and closing trades, preventing false signals from thin books.
Trading Modes: Long, Short, Both
Understand the three trading modes, how each one opens and closes positions, and when to use single-direction modes for funding income versus Both mode for maximum executions.
One-Leg Arbitrage
A directional execution mode that opens a real position on only one exchange while using the other as a signal reference. Higher capital efficiency and directional upside — but unhedged, higher risk, and available only on the Pro tier.
Risk Management
Understanding the risks of arbitrage trading, built-in safeguards, position sizing, and what can go wrong.
Exchange Fees
Understanding trading fees across exchanges and how they affect your arbitrage profitability.
Delist Detection & Protection
How Arbitron detects upcoming instrument delistings across exchanges and automatically protects your trading cards before it's too late.
Connecting Exchanges & API Keys
How to link your exchange accounts to Arbitron: key permissions, passphrases, DEX wallets, IP whitelisting and what the Test button actually verifies.
Quick Start: Your First Trade
From an empty account to a running trading card: connect two exchanges, pick an opportunity in the scanner, and launch with sane defaults.
Using the Scanner
How the opportunity scanner ranks thousands of cross-exchange pairs, what every column means, and how to go from a promising row to a trading card.
Inverse (Coin-Margined) Futures
What BASE-USD contracts are, how coin-margined collateral changes the math, and how Arbitron scans and trades inverse markets.
Cash & Carry
Buy spot, short the perp, collect funding: how basis, chunked execution and funding income combine into a market-neutral carry position.
Exchange Server Locations & Latency
Where Binance, Bybit, OKX and other major exchanges host their matching engines, how distance turns into slippage, and how to pick the right server location for arbitrage.
Why the scanner spread isn't your profit
Fees, depth, slippage and timing — the four gaps between a spread on a screen and money in your account, and what an honest estimate looks like.
API key security for automated trading
Trade-only permissions, IP whitelisting, encrypted storage and key hygiene — what to set up on the exchange and what to demand from any service that asks for your keys.
Funding intervals: 1h, 4h and 8h explained
The same 0.01% funding rate pays 8× more on a 1-hour interval than on an 8-hour one. How intervals differ across exchanges, why they change per symbol, and how to compare rates correctly.
