Arbitrage / Easy money for new people

[Mastsetad]

Here is an easy way to make money if you don't know too much about coins.

1) Find a newer exchange that doesn't have a lot of people.

2) Go to coinmarketcap and open that exchange's page e.g. https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/cryptopia/

3) Make sure you have BTC selected as the currency.

4) Go down the list from high volume to low volume and find a coin that trades at substantially different prices on two exchanges. For example buy/sell 0.0001/0/0002 on one exchange and 0003/0.0004 on another.

5) Look at the histories of that coin on both exchanges and decide if confirmation times allow you to be pretty sure of making money.

6) Look at depth on both exchanges and make sure it looks adequate in both directions.

7) Never risk more than you can afford or need to risk. On low volume coins traded on obscure exchanges you could walk into a trap so avoid exchanges known for setting people up, e.g. exchanges that list overtly bad coins.

Arbitrage is still wide open in crypto and a good way to learn about coins, since you should research a coin before you arbitrage it. Anybody could have made some program to arbitrage all coins across exchanges, but I guess the experts are leaving low fruit for new people.

Arbitrage provides a service, it lowers prices and keeps predatory trading in check, and can also be profitable.

The information you have given is really helpful, especially for newbies who are still struggling with making success through crypto investment, but I don’t really know if you’re right with the number one tip you gave on making use of a new website. New websites don’t have much members or people making use of it, so I’m really confused on that. But if it works, no probs.

Arbitrage trading is easy but comes with risky too,at the waiting time you will lose your profits amount if the price falls and some exchanges have issues while depositing and withdrawing it may take hours too.So if you can find two best exchanges with price difference then you are free to go.

I learn it from my friend and it is worth it but choose wisely the coin you want to arbitage and the be always prepared when it comes of losses possibility.

Arbitrage could be a good idea if :

1. you have consider fee completely (sometimes fees are too much that would make you regret after it)
2. it would take some times from some hours to some days to have your coins sent and you see it in new exchange and in that time the price of it could fall
3. you are certain that the wallet of the new exchange is not in maintain mode , unless you need to wait ages ( once it happened to me!)

Arbitrage is one method i often do on trading aside from instant profit its not causing me too much stress while trading and this one is the easiest way for me to get some profit on trading.

[mrproblem]

if you make it as really what it is it is easy money but most of time you need to find opportunities on exchanges

I know Arbitrage can make you easy profit but its really dangerous if you got problem on chain transaction, the problem its something whent coins have some diferent from other exchange. The transaction really long for progres example like BCN listing on Binance the chain its really overload

Arb is good if you have a good enternet connections and if you have a good skills to do that trade. Some of exchangers change the price in a matter of seconds and when you recieve your coins its already dump so you lose. Thats why arbritage is risky for me and i dont want to do that.

[Vanester2014]

Arb is arbitrage is a good way to earn money in trading but for me arbitrage is more risky than we are doing traditional trading and it requires a good  skills and is you are just a newbie then you should try to study first before you can do arbitrage.

[dekcutbusu33]

Yes arbitrage trading is one of the best ways to earn, it gets a small but safe profit but there are so many things you need to know before attempting to trade arbitration, although there are many exchangers that have different prices but you also need to consider time transactions. but do not use it right away without knowing how it works and the cost ideas charged by your two exchanges for determining whether you will make a profit.

Cryptopia? No thanks.!

I would rather find up other exchange rather than engaging myself into this thing. Arbitrage is simple but would really be need to be done on a precise matter for you to be profitable but if not then you would just lose up money because of the fees. Finding new or non popular exchange just to buy up a coin is really a dangerous and not a suggested thing.

I agree with the post above, you should take a look with confirmation time and the price gap between each exchange to avoid any loss happened. Because if you just blindly sent your address especially to new exchanges you might ended to lose.

Any arbitrage that is not even having a pretty huge gap that is worth the risk should not even be done as it is not worth it. Arbitrage is a huge risk and you want to be sure you are doing this on exchanges you know you can at least trust that you won't be having problem with transaction at all and even if an issue ends up coming up, you can at least have a support to contact and rectify the issue. The opportunity with arbitrage can actually be a cool one, but best to trade with what you can afford to lose just like the OP said.

Arbitrage trading is a huge opportunity in Crypto for sure as there are many exchanges and the volatile market also helps.
Having some concerns as well : Deposit/withdrawal time, transaction delays, Volume on  both Exchanges,  trading fees at different Exchanges, different exchanges different platforms ( You have to be registered with many exchanges )
You have to act and calculate fast as You have to close Your positions on both Exchanges at the same time, otherwise it is very risky as price can change and You can end with a loss.
Possibility is there, quick execution is questionable for me.

a few days ago when I was starting to learn arbitrage, I found a site tool to monitor arbitrage, I do not know how high the accuracy value but on the site it has many options like exchange, market and volume .. maybe you can try it.
visit = https://coingap.org
which makes me trouble is when the price difference occurs due to wallet maintenance factor.

Be careful when arbitrage, never miss the most important half before doing arbitrage.

1. Check the availability of the wallet
You must make sure the wallet is On. On both sides.

2. Note the sales volume And buy between markets.
If you buy with large quantities, while the recipient market is only available buy small wall. Do you want to lose money?

3. Make sure the delivery time
Choose a coin with a shipment that does not take long if you want to arbitrage.

Just a Suggestion from Me, Because if arbitrage is constrained. You can lose a lot of time.

From my experience,  I think arbitrage should be quite easy with tokens that are based on ethereum!  All you need is for you to identify token that are trading at good margin in different exchanges  and once you determine it has liquidity,  simply increase your Gwei for speed and record confirmation, then you can quickly pick your trade and make profit!

Arbitrage trading is really cool and shortcut of making some good money in the crypto market and I have been practicing it for a long time. I have also traded arbitrage strategies in Stocks & forex and right now i am concentrating on crypto arbitrage trading. Recently I came to know about Cryptosuite software which is a great arbitrage tool by which you can easily make a good profit by buying the crypto-coin at one exchange at a low price and selling it to another exchange at a higher price.

[kojoannan]

Arbitrage across two or more exchanges is the sure way to make money with crypto. It must look good on an theory but in practice is near impossible. Transactions fees for example is one reason why involvement in arbitrage don't seem to be realistic.

Arbitrage trading can really help you increase your profit, theoretically, since the market is volatile, the chances that when we do arbitrage and get a high profit is when we bought the coin so low, then when we trade to another platform it will cost more than where we bought them, and that is basically how arbitrage trading works, but there is a catch, if you can just buy and sell the coins, then why not, also arbitrage trading takes so much time, you need to wait for a lot of confirmations, still it is profitable, I guess it will be up to the investor whether they would want to try it or not.
