WAVES arbitrage strategy
No WAVES 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 HTX → Bybit: the spread opened there 96 times in 7 days, 35 of them for a minute or longer; it usually lasts 9.0 s.
- The transfer is ready: WAVES moves from HTX to Bybit on WAVES, withdrawal fee 0.01 WAVES. Keep USDT on HTX and WAVES on Bybit so you do not wait for it.
- Set an alert on the route: you hear when the spread pays after fees. Then buy on HTX and sell on Bybit.
