The chart below shows the percentage spread (calculated as (ask - bid)/bid) for some cryptoasstes on major exchanges. Note how the spreads on local exchanges (Luno and VALR) are generally higher than the equivalent market on Binance.

Arbitrage: Current and Historic Premiums
Select an exchange and cycle to view them on the graph.
The graph below shows multiple assets and markets on a selected exchange. We can use some advanced graph theory to calculate the best arbitrage cycles within the graph. The ROI for these cycles is generally quite low, indicating that these exchanges are efficient market places. However, there still exist consistent opportunites between international and South African exchanges (inter-exchange) that can be exploited to earn low-risk profits using our Arbitrage product.
