CATE arbitrage strategy
No CATE route worth taking with an open transfer right now. Gaps of a minute or longer open several times a week, though — here is how to catch the next one:
- Watch MEXC → BingX: the spread opened there 3 times in 7 days, 3 of them for a minute or longer; it usually lasts 3 min 27 s.
- Check the transfer in advance: MEXC or BingX does not publish its network status.
- Set an alert on the route: you hear when the spread pays after fees. Then buy on MEXC and sell on BingX.
