Intra Arbitrage Settings

Intra-Exchange Arbitrage is like finding tiny price differences for the same cryptocurrency but between different trading pairs within a single exchange. For example, you might find a slightly better price to buy Bitcoin with USDT than by first buying Ethereum with USDT and then Bitcoin with Ethereum. Our ArbiQue bot can spot these subtle differences and trade quickly to take advantage of them. Here's how to set it up:

• Strategy Selection:

  • Make sure you've clicked on the Intra tab at the top of your Trade Settings page. This will show you the settings specifically for Intra-Exchange Arbitrage.

  • 
• "Auto-Off/On" - Should the Bot Trade Automatically?

  • Just like with Triangular Arbitrage, this is your main control.

  • "Off" means "Observe Only": When set to "Off," the bot will not automatically execute any intra-exchange arbitrage trades. It will simply watch the market based on your other settings.

  • "On" means "Start Trading Automatically": Turning this to "On" tells ArbiQue to actively look for and execute intra-exchange arbitrage opportunities that meet the criteria you define below.

• "Exchange" - Which Exchange Should the Bot Focus On?

  • Intra-Exchange Arbitrage happens within a single exchange. Click on the "Select Exchange(s)" dropdown and choose the specific exchange where you want the bot to look for these intra-exchange price differences. You'll likely want to select exchanges where there are many different trading pairs for the cryptocurrencies you're interested in.

• "Amount Per Trade (USDT)" - How Much Capital Per Trade?

  • This sets the maximum amount of USDT the bot can use for one complete intra-exchange arbitrage sequence. This sequence might involve buying one cryptocurrency with USDT and then selling it for another, ultimately aiming to increase your USDT amount (or the amount of your base currency).

  • Pay attention to the minimum amount mentioned (like "Min: 50 USDT"). Make sure your entry is at least this much. This setting helps you manage your risk and how much capital is tied up in each potential arbitrage attempt.

• "Minimum Profit (USDT)" - What's the Smallest Acceptable Profit?

  • This tells the bot the minimum profit in USDT it needs to identify in an intra-exchange arbitrage opportunity before it will execute the trades.

  • The guideline "Min profit should not be less than 0.01 USDT" reminds you to account for the trading fees involved in the sequence of trades. Setting a slightly higher value can lead to potentially more profitable trades, but maybe fewer of them.

• "Number Of Trade" - Limit Simultaneous Trades?

  • This toggle lets you control how many intra-exchange arbitrage operations the bot can be running at the same time.

  • "Off" means "No Strict Limit": If "Off," the bot will try to execute as many qualifying intra-exchange arbitrage opportunities as it finds, within the constraints of your capital and the "Amount Per Trade" setting.

  • "On" means "Set a Limit": If you switch this to "On," a new field ("Number Of Trades") will appear.

• "Number Of Trades" (Appears if "Number Of Trade" is "On") - What's the Maximum Number of Concurrent Trades?

  • If you turned "Number Of Trade" to "On," enter the maximum number of intra-exchange arbitrage trade sequences you want the bot to have active at once. This helps you manage your overall risk and capital allocation.

• "Send" (or "Save") - Apply Your Settings!

  • Once you've configured everything for Intra-Exchange Arbitrage, click the "Send" button. This saves your settings. If the "Auto-Off/On" switch is set to "On," the bot will now start looking for and executing intra-exchange arbitrage trades based on these rules.

Remember, Intra-Exchange Arbitrage relies on finding those small price differences within a single marketplace. Experiment with your settings to find what works best for the exchange you've selected and the market conditions.
