DEFI arbitrage strategy
No DEFI 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 KuCoin → WEEX: the spread opened there 8 times in 7 days, 6 of them for a minute or longer; it usually lasts 5 min 24 s.
- Check the transfer in advance: KuCoin or WEEX does not publish its network status.
- Set an alert on the route: you hear when the spread pays after fees. Then buy on KuCoin and sell on WEEX.
