People say arbitrage is “risk-free profit”... I tried it, and all I saw was time risk and fee pain 😅
I once tried buying a coin on exchange A, transferring it to exchange B to sell at a higher price. Sounded simple — in theory.
But by the time the transfer completed, the price gap was gone. Even when I made 1% profit, withdrawal and gas fees ate it all up.
I’ve heard of people using bots or smarter methods, but for a manual trader like me, it felt too complicated.
Anyone here actually making arbitrage work? I’d love to hear how you manage fees and timing 🙏
