"Delivers exactly what the title promises: a clear, mobile-friendly guide to arbitrage without external cards or P2P."

AI Summary

This video explains how to perform cryptocurrency arbitrage using Bybit's built-in Arbitration tool, focusing on spread arbitrage with futures expiry dates and funding rate arbitrage. The strategies require no external cards or P2P transfers and are accessible from any country, with instructions tailored for mobile use.

[00:01]
Introduction to Bybit's Arbitration Tool

The Arbitration tool is found in the main menu and offers two options: arbitration of the financing rate and the spread size.

[00:17]
Spread Arbitrage Explained

Trading pairs are sorted by spread size (price difference between spot and futures). Higher spread means higher potential profit. Example: Ethereum with a $91 spread and 2.9% difference.

[00:59]
Executing Spread Arbitrage

Buy asset on spot, short sell on futures. Profit when prices converge, typically by the futures expiration date (e.g., September 27th). Can close position early if prices converge sooner.

[02:20]
Step-by-Step Spread Arbitrage on Mobile

Enter amount of asset (e.g., 0.01 Ethereum), select buy on spot and short on futures. Adjust leverage to reduce capital needed. Confirm orders.

[03:45]
Monitoring Positions

Spot purchase appears in Single Trading Account; futures short appears in Derivatives under USDC contracts. Hedged position means no net loss/gain from price movement.

[05:05]
Funding Rate Arbitrage Introduction

Semi-passive income from funding rates paid every 8 hours. Rates vary; during high volatility can reach thousands of percent annually.

[06:04]
Understanding Funding Rate Payments

Long positions pay shorts when funding rate is positive; shorts pay longs when negative. The rate aligns futures price with spot.

[07:54]
Positive Funding Rate Strategy

Hold short futures position and buy spot to hedge. Example with BL coin: positive rate means shorts receive funding. Execute both legs simultaneously.

[09:46]
Negative Funding Rate Strategy

Need to short on spot using margin trading (borrow coins) and go long on futures. This allows earning funding from negative rate.

[11:34]
Passive Income & Timing

Funding credited at specific times; can leave positions open for days. Monitor rate changes and adjust as needed.

Bybit's Arbitration tool enables profitable arbitrage strategies without external payment methods, accessible globally. Mastering spread and funding rate arbitrage can generate steady passive income, but requires careful monitoring of market conditions.

[00:01] withdrawal to the card, that is, we will do this on the exchange itself and only in tool called Arbitration appeared on the bbit exchange. It is located here in the main menu. arbitration options. Arbitration of the financing rate and the spread size. Let's start

[00:17] and most understandable. Here we are shown trading pairs sorted by the spread size. The higher this spread, the more we can earn, that is, what is it? For example, Ethereum is here. The top

[00:30] trading pair. Let's select it. There is Ethereum, which is traded against the USD on the spot on the spot market, and there is Ethereum, which is also traded against the dollar on the futures market, also against the USD. The price is different on futures and on spot. As

[00:44] you can see, you can make money on this, that is, for example, now the price on futures is higher than on the spot, and it is written above. How much is 91 dollars? 2.9 about accordingly, how can we make money on this? We can buy

[00:59] this asset on the spot and sell it for the futures, that is, not sell but put it short. Accordingly, we bet on a decline on futures and buy the asset on the spot. Then we just have to

[01:12] wait until the price on futures and on the spot converges and becomes the same. And it will futures. As you can see, it says here September 27th, which means that

[01:24] this date, September 27th, will be the expiration date on futures. This means that by this date, the asset on the futures will in any case approach the price that is on the

[01:36] spot. And after the expiration date, in principle, you can close your position at the by the twenty-seventh, it will cost almost as much as the asset on the spot because there is an expiration date for these futures. That is, the date

[01:51] when the futures will, so to speak, be canceled. If you watched my video probably understand what the expiration date is and just remember on this date that the price on the JURS will be the same as the price on the spot and on this date the prices will converge, but

[02:08] you may not necessarily wait for this date. You can close this deal earlier. Let me explain now in practice how everything happens on the left. We choose to buy because we will buy an asset on the spot. On the right, we choose short because we

[02:20] will bet on a decline and here we can enter the amount of ethereum we will buy. Let's say we need to buy USDC here, see what is available, this is the currency that you need on the balance. Let's

[02:35] enter, for example, zero 01 ethereum here, that is, for this we will need a little. A little money will be needed, in principle, with plus or minus. Any amount can be used for this. Next, we will go short. We will also get on 01 ethereum. The short position will be

[02:49] opened with leverage. Here we can adjust it, set less or more leverage, but accordingly. The less leverage, the more of our own money we need, so roughly speaking, we can spend 10 times less money on you

[03:02] than on opening this one. spot position and And thus, we need to earn more, less money to complete this transaction. So, now let's select a price in the order book. I click on the price and press both steps.

[03:15] Now we will have a purchase and a short position. Confirm excellent at the bottom. We see that our order was executed here, but the only downside is that we cannot track this entire window, we need to understand what happened to us now: Ethereum was bought on spot;

[03:30] on futures, the position became short. Accordingly, by going to the assets section and going to our single trading account, we bought Ethereum here. I on spot. If we go to derivatives, we will see that we have an

[03:43] open short position, and here it is active, we can view it. If you do not see this short position, then at the top, go to the USDC contracts. There are perpetual USDC contracts here, then you will only see perpetual contracts. Your positions on

[03:57] perpetual futures will be visible. You go to USDC. contract, and here is our position, accordingly, when the price goes up on Ethereum, we earn on spot and lose on futures, but in total we have zero, we will not earn anything, we will not

[04:10] lose anything because we have a short position open for one amount and a buy position for the same amount. If the price falls, we lose on spot and earn here on futures turns out that we do not lose anything and do not earn when the price converges,

[04:24] we can manually close this position or wait for our expiration date. Let's go back to the Arbitration section and look at other pairs that we have, for example, Bitcoin usdc here we have the same thing and also We have a spread between

[04:38] futures with an expiration date because for us this is very profitable for futures with an expiration date, the price will definitely converge with the future sooner or later, and here too, the spread is, for example, $1,700. That is, now the difference on Bitcoin 1,700

[04:52] dollars between futures and then here is the annual percentage written. Of course, you should catch higher percentages than there are now. I'm telling you this as an example. But let's now move on to another, to the financing rate.

[05:05] Here in the Arbitration section there is Arbitration of the financing rate. This is a more interesting tool that allows you to earn a semi-passive

[05:23] annual yield. This yield is constantly changing on different coins and sometimes during times of high volatility this yield can even reach a thousand or several thousand percent. This rate usually does not last long, but

[05:35] sometimes you can make several processes to your deposit in a day. Further to the right in the financing rate. The financing rate is what we will receive, what we will earn every 8 hours.

[05:49] Look when we trade futures. We have two options for opening a position: either long or short, that is, on an increase in price or on a decrease in price. So, periodically, holding a Long position, we will receive a financing rate from

[06:04] those who hold a short position, that is, they will pay us for what we hold. will pay us for what we hold. Longs, not shorts. Sometimes, holding a short position, we get paid. Longs, on the contrary. And we receive this funding rate,

[06:17] designated as the funding rate, and there is a countdown to it. Here, for example, one hour, if we click, we will see that every 8 hours a payment occurs. Either longs pay shorts or purely longs. The funding rate itself allows the price on

[06:33] spot. Accordingly, if the price is slightly higher on futures, the exchange stimulates this funding rate so that the price is the same as on spot. Therefore, our task is to hold the correct position,

[06:47] holding this position we will receive this funding rate. Naturally, we will hedge our risks and remove our risks by opening the will neither lose nor earn anything when the price changes, but will

[07:02] earn only this funding rate. Without the risk of losing money from changes in the price of the coin itself. Let's look at the example of this Z usdt pair. Here we have a negative funding rate. This means

[07:15] that when holding a Long position We will receive this financing rate with you, we will receive funding with you, and accordingly, shorts will pay us. If we have a positive rate, like on

[07:27] this BL coin, for example, then here we will receive the financing rate with you while holding a short position. And longs will pay us, that is, with a positive rate, longs pay shorts, with a negative rate, shorts pay

[07:40] longs. It is most convenient to form positive rates here. Let's choose the same PLR ​​coin and using its example, I will show here. Our task. Since we have a positive rate, we need to hold a short position on

[07:54] futures, a downward position, because the financing rate is paid for holding futures positions, not spot. On spot, we pay nothing and no one pays us anything, so here we simply enter the spot price. We can

[08:10] also click on the price in the order book, enter the number of BL coins, let it be 20. Well, 20 is not enough, let it be 200. The cost and price are written, how much money we need. Let's click on the price in the order book again and press both steps, what will

[08:24] happen to us on the spot, we will buy a BL coin on futures, a short position will open, here it says sell, this means that a short position will open at the market price on futures, accordingly, from the price change up

[08:37] or down, we will neither lose nor earn anything, but we will receive the financing rate every 8 hours, press both steps to confirm and we see that our instrument has successfully executed our position. Let's go

[08:51] to the derivatives section below and here we can find our position. Here it is open, we have a short position on the BL coin, accordingly, changes here, unrealized pnl plus or minus does not play any role at all

[09:06] because we have a position on the downside here, but for the same position volume, we bought these coins here on our Single trading account. Here they are BL coins, they were bought from us, all that remains for us is to just wait for

[09:20] this financing rate to drip onto our balance on a single trading account, we can do it constantly Track by going to the BL coin itself, here you can see the HH Rate. As long as it is positive, we will receive

[09:33] this funding rate and every 8 hours we will receive the percentage that is written here. As soon as the funding rate becomes negative, it will be best for us to close our position and sell coins on the spot, but what to do

[09:46] if the rate is negative, how can we make money on a negative funding rate? Here we will need to think a little and work with our hands, but in fact, do it once or twice and then you will be as easy

[09:58] to formalize it as with a positive rate. For example, coin Z, which is at the very top, has a very high yield now. Well, relative to all the funding rate for funding, this is a low rate and they can be even higher,

[10:11] since here the rate is negative, we will receive income from a Long position. Therefore, we need to open a Long position on futures. And on spot, we need to open a short position, as if selling a coin, since on spot we cannot open a

[10:25] short and we have no coins to sell. We see zero Z coins. We will use margin spot trading, with its help we can sell. Those coins that we don't have because we'll just borrow them from the exchange. All

[10:38] There's a separate tool for this called margin trading. It's better to do this from a computer, but now I'll show you how to do it from a phone. It can be done on a computer. Similarly, we find the margin trading section. And here we

[10:51] find the coin we need. Let's just use Ethereum as an example. I'll show you here that we need to open a short position. Elon made it conditional so that it's clearer to us how it works on futures. Yes. Similarly, in fact, there's neither short nor long on spot.

[11:05] You just sell or buy. Here we can sell the amount of coins, even those we don't have on our balance, either at the market or at the limit price. Then we need to switch to futures, find the same coin, and open a long position here. The most

[11:21] important thing is that we need to open a long position for the same volume that we opened a position on spot. It turns out that the price is not for us because we have both long and short positions at the same point. We entered a deal, but we get profitability

[11:34] from funding because our funding is negative here. The most important thing to remember is that you receive funding at a certain time. For example, right now the countdown to funding is 50 minutes left. In 50 minutes, funding will be credited.

[11:47] Then we will have to wait another 8 hours to receive new funding. Therefore, this income can be relatively called passive because you can leave these settings unchanged and not open your positions for several days. But

[12:01] sometimes everything changes very quickly, especially with high market volatility. Sometimes you will have to collect one or two fundings and open new positions on new coins. Also, don't forget about our trading club and

[12:14] cryptobank. Post a strategy about a false breakout. A whole video training video on the false breakout strategy. A post about how to analyze the stocks of the project nomi and another training video about technical analysis patterns. But in the Trading
