I looked into arbitrage a few years ago but found it to be nice as a concept but doing it in reality has so many drawbacks,price change,time of transfer,fees etc
In the end i went a different way and found something profitable to the tune of about 2-2.5% per sat move against altcoin btc pair per trade.I tried telling ppl about it as i was looking to sell it but at that time noone actually beleived it was possible mathematicly so i was stuck with it.Poor me
Arbing just wasnt for me,not in crypto anyways
kinda interested in what you are talking about, but I prefer figuring things out for myself lol, my current trading processed even explained to my friends was not enough, they see via skype screen sharing and what not that it works but they still would rather badger me with enticing offers to do the trading for them, which one finally did mostly because I am more confident now, and not because they wore me down or offered me something I could not refuse, as for if it is working, I say don't sell it just use it, and prove what you are earning to people, put a business model together and sell your services to make them profit and collect a bit on the side from this profit
I am trading as I said for a friend and our agreement is that the profit from trades I take half of, and always make sure the principal is left behind too, as well as his profit. if he leaves his profit in, I increase the "principal" by that amount, so 200K coins makes 40K profit, I take my 20K *50% of 40K* and if he leaves the other 20K then his principal is now 220K coins. which means I can make even more if I can trade it all to make a profit for example using the previous trade it would not be a 40k profit but a 44k profit, so we each would make an additional 2k profit on top of our 20k
mind you we are pretty good friends and have worked on a number of things together so our agreement is a gentleman's agreement, so anyone else I did this with we would have to have signed and notarized paperwork that we both agree to before I started working that sort of a plan with them, and my system basically uses statistic analysis and psychological analysis to understand why things happen, so I know when I can solidly expect trading trends to make money, thus it does not take into account variables I can not anticipate yet, as I have not encountered them before, and those effects that just can not be anticipated, lol. but I still always end up with a profit at some point
