Transfer and fees

Verdict

The engine's verdict: “Avoid”. Reasons: funding-unstable; best-level size unknown; a stock, index, commodity or currency while its market is shut (weekend, holiday, early close): the gap is a bet on the reopening, not an arbitrage; a stock or commodity: prices diverge outside market hours; close-spread; the exchange reports no 24h volume: nothing says anyone trades there.

History

Over 7 days the spread on MEXC → Gate opened 69 times; it usually lasts 40 min 48 s.

About this page

This page is one route: the prices of two exchanges, the spread before and after fees, the profit by the order books, the coin transfer status, a verdict and the spread's history. Below are the live chart for 6 hours, 24 hours, 7 and 30 days, both exchanges' order books and the trade step by step. A spread after fees is not the profit: the books' depth, the withdrawal fee and the time the coins are in transit all count.
