AI + Python Automation for Beginners in Funding Rate Arbitrage
Recently, the liquidity in the cryptocurrency market has been severely lacking. To supplement cash flow, I've become fascinated with funding rate arbitrage. Although it can't be done freely, this market is still quite appealing at the moment.
In simple terms, it involves making a little money by taking advantage of the rate difference between spot trading and perpetual contracts, with risks low enough that even beginners can play it without worry—
Backed by AI + Python, I’ve opened a mode to earn passively. I let AI help me write some Python code, fully automated to choose coins and arbitrage. The process goes roughly like this:
1. API scans the market: Directly use a certain exchange's API to grab funding rates, fast as lightning.
2. Find the “golden opportunity”: Monitor the rate fluctuations over the past 24 hours and pick out the most volatile “potential stocks.”
3. Calculate: Is the rate high enough? Are the profits sufficient? Help me calculate the earnings clearly, even deducting transaction fees to ensure I don’t lose money.
4. Python goes go go: Choose the coin, and Python automatically places orders—buying spot and shorting contracts (or vice versa), with risks hedged in a second.
5. Relax and count profits: Once the rates are credited, Python tells me to wrap up, and I cash out when I’ve earned enough—it's extremely satisfying!
By the way, a reminder: coins with stable rates don’t earn enough to fill the gaps, so start with small funds and manage your risks well.
