please look the charts: http://data.bitcoinity.org/markets/arbitrage/USDokcoin has the highest price ($394.64), while lakebtc has the lowest price ($382.91), almost $10 spread and even though their USD trading is not as free as the CNY, but the trading fee is low (0.2% Taker & 0.1% Maker), and also the FIAT deposit is free too. I don't know how long this volatility will last, but I shared it to you, anyone would like to miss money? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Then you subtract fees, and then you have to withdraw USD from okcoin, which they charge 0.1% for. Then every financial institution between okcoin and your bank takes their cut for the transfer, can't say how much that is.

Right now difference between the price is only 5$ so better not to risk for small profit. And for day trader if you can't afford more than 2 btc in each exchanger there is nothing much to earn from this gap.

There's a time delay while you move coins between exchanges, and bitcoin can change value while you wait. By the time your bitcoins are confirmed you could find your potential profit has turned into a loss because bitcoin's price changed. There's another risk that others doing arbitrage beat you to it, and you again make a loss.

Not long ago the BTC-E price was around $18 lower than Bitstamp. I bought 2 Bitcoins at BTC-E and sold it at Bitstamp. After all the waiting for the deposit to post at Bitstamp, I managed to sell and get around $12 profit per coin after fees. x2 = $24 profit. Easy profit without doing much work ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

You've just sold your BTC for USD on okcoin. neither okcoin nor lakebtc, I mean that my balance was hold by myself, and I think I should save my many profits to to make a big withdrawal for one time. the more withdrawals, the more costs. as a daytrader, but firstly I am a long-term BTC-holder.

I have never made a USD deposit in BTC-E. If I want to have USD in my BTC-E account, I simply deposit Bitcoin in my account and sell them. Then I just wait for an opportunity to convert the USD back to Bitcoin if there is a large enough price difference between BTC-E and Bitstamp.

How long do you have to wait, on average? BTC-E is pretty much always lower than Bitstamp, so I imagine it'd take a while to find a profitable re-entry in to BTC.

If the profits were so huge, I think there would not be such big gap, at least not for long. If it exists, then it is for a reason(but what reason?), so I think there is no arbitrage opportunity.

During the last run when we broke through $500, there was even $50 difference between the Chinese and western exchanges so these gaps that you guys mentioned above are nothing!
During these huge differences in price numerous threads have surfaced about arbitrage opportunities where we pretty much all concluded that it ain't worth messing with this!
