Title: How to take advantage of SPREAD ? Post by: thenoblebot on January 25, 2014, 08:17:51 AM How does one take advantage of a spread in the prices ? say hypothetically :
BTC ask = 800 BTC sell = 900 (just so its easier to do calculations here ) Are there any strategies one can use to take advantage of the situation ? Title: Re: How to take advantage of SPREAD ? Post by: thenoblebot on January 25, 2014, 09:20:27 AM bump anyone ? sorry if its a noob question

Hmm yes I did think of that but these days with bots getting in that whole process is not as optimized ....but thanks for that .. any other ways one could potentially use the spread to their own advantage ? |
