Trading Cards
A Trading Card is the core unit of automation in Arbitron. Each card defines a specific arbitrage setup: which two exchanges to trade between, which symbol (e.g. BTC/USDT), and the spread thresholds for opening and closing positions.
You can run multiple cards simultaneously, each targeting different exchange pairs or symbols. Cards operate independently — one card's failure does not affect others.
The Workflow
Each card follows a clear lifecycle: Armed (monitoring spread, waiting for threshold), Opening (placing market orders on both exchanges), Hedged (both legs filled, monitoring close threshold), Closing (reverse orders placed), and Cycle Complete (PnL recorded).
After closing, the card automatically returns to Armed and begins watching for the next opportunity. This creates a continuous cycle of profit capture without manual intervention.
Market Data Pipeline
Arbitron connects to all supported exchanges in real time, receiving live price updates for thousands of instruments. The system normalizes data from every exchange into a unified format and processes it instantly.
Spreads are computed for every exchange pair in real time, and signals are generated the moment thresholds are exceeded. You see these signals on your dashboard instantly.
Automated Execution
When a card detects that the spread has crossed its open threshold, it sends two market orders simultaneously — one on each exchange. Both orders execute in parallel to minimize slippage and timing risk.
Every order fill and funding payment is permanently recorded. You can review the full history of every cycle, including exact fill prices, fees, and net profit.
