About arbitrage Trading

Arbitrage is a trading strategy where an investor simultaneously buys and sells an asset in different markets to take advantage of a price difference and generate a profit. In arbitrage trading, a trader will simultaneously purchase and sale  the same asset in different markets in order to profit from tiny differences in the asset’s listed price.

It exploits short-lived variations in the price of identical or similar financial instruments in different markets or in different forms. In other word, arbitrage traders are known as Opportunist, who take advantage of the inevitable inefficiencies in markets.

It can sometimes be referred to as a form of investment as you need capital and your ability to do research in order to detect new available opportunity in the market. You didn’t need to understand technical analysis in this case, but you must have a considerable amount of money as capital to get started with your arbitrage business.

How arbitrage trading works

In this section, I will be providing you with different situations on arbitrage and typical example, with this you will understand futher how arbitrage works and how you can key Into any slight opportunity in the market and make cool cash with low or no risk.

The first example in this section is based  currencies markets and how to carry out arbitrage trading using triangular method. In this method, the you will converts one currency into another, converts that second currency to a third bank, and finally converts the third currency back to the original currency.

Currencies triangular arbitrage

Let say for example, you have $500,000 and you are provided with the following exchange rates: EUR/USD = 1.1586, EUR/GBP = 1.4600, and USD/GBP = 1.6939.

If you study the currencies provided above with their respective exchange rates, you will clearly see that there is an arbitrage opportunity at this present point, simply follow the sequence below:

Simply sell your $500,000 dollars to buy euros: $500,000 ÷ 1.1586 = €431,555

Now, Sell euros for pounds: €431,555 ÷ 1.4600 = £295,586

Then, Sell pounds for dollars: £295,586 x 1.6939 = $500,692

It’s time to calculate your profit and all you have to do is to Subtract the initial investment from the final amount: $500,692 – $500,000 = $692

With the calculation above, if you explore the market and perform the transaction as calculated above, you would receive an arbitrage profit of $692 (assuming no transaction charges or taxes). All required of you here is to repeat the steps and keep repeating it to make more profit.

Crypto arbitrage

This involved sourcing for different cryptocurrency exchangers and their rates for coins at a period of time. In this case, you will b working with two or more exchangers and this is very simple and straight forward. Let’s use Bitcoin for a typical example.

Your first assignment here is to spot a difference in the pricing of a digital asset across two or more exchanges and execute a series of transactions to take advantage of the difference. Very simple and straight forward

Let assume the price of bitcoin is $45,000 on A cryptocurrency exchange and $45,300 on B. In this case, a typical crypto arbitrage trader have been provided with the opportunity to spot the current disparity between the two exchangers and buy bitcoin on A and sell it on B to pocket the $300 price difference. This is a typical example of a crypto arbitrage trade.

If you remember, I said arbitrage trading can as well be referred to as a form of investment in the previous part of this guide on how to start arbitrage trading in Nigeria and any part of the world, with the samples that have been revealed so far, it’s obvious that capital is the most important thing in starting your journey to arbitrage trading business.

Second example on crypto arbitrage Trading

Another example is spotting a platform that allows you to buy cryptocurrencies with dollar, once you spot this platform, your primary assignment here is to compare the exchange rate of this platform to your local Bank exchange rate. This example is much active for Nigerians alone and will not work if your country local currency is either dollar, Euro or pound.

On this method of arbitrage trading, we will be making use of our local banks and two different cryptocurrency exchangers. The first step is to spot the platform that allows you to fund your account in dollar with your naira card at the rate of your local Banks standard rate.

The second step is to spot the exchanger that that allows you to withdraw to your Nigeria bank account without any form of issue and the third step is to shoot your shot. This is where the money is being printed.

This method is very simple and easy as compared to other method and it guarantee a very high income on a single transaction. Don’t worry, I am going to give you a typical example of this type of crypto arbitrage trading.

The two crypto exchange platform I am going to be using in this section are Coinbase and binance. Binance is a crypto exchange platform that is trusted by millions of users worldwide. Once you register on the platform and verify your account, you will be able to buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, ChainLink, Rune, Cardano, Binance Coin, SHIB, and lots of alt coins, all with some of the lowest fees in crypto. Additionally, the platform allows you to explore awesome art and collectibles on Binance NFT marketplace!

Coinbase on the other hands is also a trusted crypto exchange with over 89 million users across 100+ countries worldwide. Coinbase allows you to securely buy, hold and sell cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Litecoin and many more on it’s easy, user-friendly app and web platform.

As at the moment of writing this complete guide on how to start arbitrage trading in Nigeria, Coinbase allows individuals to fund their Coinbase wallet with with their Bank card with dollar exchange rate of 416 naira/$. On the other hand, USDT is trading at 597/$.

In this case, our primary aim is to convert our naira to $ at the rate of #416/$, convert the dollar to USDT and convert the USDT to naira at the rate of 597/USDT, how can that be possible? Follow the instructions below.

Register on Coinbase and get your account verified, do same on binance. Now fund you Coinbase account with your bank card. Let assume you want to start with just $100, when you fund your Coinbase account with your bank card, $100 will be equivalent to 100 × 416 = 41,600.

Now, look for a coin with low transfer changes, example of this coins is Tron(TRX) but for the purpose of this guide, I am going to be using XLM as an example. Simply buy XLM worth of the $100 and transfer the XLM to your binance account.

Once you get the XLM on your Binance account, go to market place and select the correct pair, which is XLM/USDT. Sell the XLM for USDT and at this point, you have successfully convert the $ to USDT, the next step is to convert it back to naira.

When you convert back to USDT, you might not get up to 100 USDT, let assume you got 97 USDT, you will be selling it to naira on binance at the rate of 597 per USDT. 597 × 100 = 59,700 naira. Now, subtract your initial investment amount from the final amount, this will be 59,700 – 41,600 = 18,100.

Now, with the investment of 41,600, you have successfully receive an arbitrage profit of 18,100 naira, doing what will not even take you more than few hours. Repeat the steps and make 18,000 repeatedly to your Nigeria bank account.

This is the reason why I said that the concept above is the most profitable strategy in cryptocurrency arbitrage trading and looking at the profit made from the calculation above, you will agree with me that there’s no other tactics that could fetch you More than that with such little effort and zero trading knowledge.

Note: You must fully understand that Coinbase is just one out of the thousands of exchange with this kind of crypto arbitrage opportunity, when you do your own research, you will detect even more platform that are more rewarding.

I understand that having gone through the break down above, you will be wondering if there’s any risk or problem associated with this type of arbitrage trading. Worry no more, I will just go straight to the point and reveal the problem that trader do face while shooting their arbitrage shot with this strategy.

The main issue is that, these platforms sometimes select cards and you might have to try different cards before you finally see one that is working smoothly. Secondly, there is limit to the amount of dollar you can purchase with your cards on a monthly basis, but not to worry, once you found a card working for a particular platform, you can negotiate with family and friends using this cards and fund your account using theirs in conjunction with yours.
