What is it ?

Cross Markets Arbitrage is a commonly used method to absorb profit in the cryptocurrency market. With it, users can make a profit from the price difference among different exchanges and markets by buying low and selling high. The core principle of this feature is based on regression to the mean, also considered as a risk-free arbitrage strategy.

For example, the BTC price arrives at $35200 on Exchange A and $35380 on Exchange B. Usually, profit-seeking users would deposit on Exchange A to buy 1 BTC then transfer it to Exchange B and sell it to take a $180 profit. Of course, in real trading, a transaction fee will be charged for buying and selling. The inter-exchange price difference must be greater than the sum of the bilateral transaction fees for the user to gain profit.

Bibox supports AI Cross Markets Arbitrage where users only need to enter the API information and the bot will, based on the asset status, identify the profitable cryptocurrency and trading pair(s) to absorb profit from the cross markets price difference. It is worth mentioning that the Bibox cross-market arbitrage bot will automatically detect whether the cross-market spread is greater than the sum of the transaction fees on both sides. The cross-market arbitrage will only be executed when the net rate is greater than 0.
