I never did this strategy actually since I am just a hodler in majority of the time I have in trading which is just a little time. I might consider booking it into my plan book in my journal soon.  Smiley
I got two exchanges that I am already familiar with and that is Binance and EtherDelta, and when I get back to trading, I'll use this strategy and see where it goes.

Just be careful not to get too excited when you see a huge price gap. There must be something wrong and often there is. Some coins are running on different blockchains or on forks and so if you buy from one exchange you cannot deposit on the other (viceversa) even though the coins are the same. Always try a small amount at first if you are not sure.

Btw this is nothing new like many many other users have mentioned. You can mix it up though by renting mining power and working on the arbitrage difference in the price of mining vs buying. You have to be quick though. I use to do it but I have sine find more lucrative methods of making money.

Also, don't give up on projects. Just stop supporting shit that's all you need to do. If you support something good and it still fails then you cannot blame yourself.

You can really make money on this, but a lot will depend on the speed of transaction processing and internal exchange transactions.  After all, the most important thing in this is speed.  Exchanges very quickly adjust exchange rates between each other, you can trite not have time for a few seconds before adjusting the rates.

I tried, lot of people tried that too. sometimes you get pay, but most of the time, I screw up
it depends on transaction speed, and you know, between exchanges, they are just not love eachothers so... quite slow most of the time

As others have said, this is not a new method.

You are only required here to carefully choose the difference between exchanges, this is not easy and the risk is quite high, prices go down when you process withdrawal and deposit transactions, this is what usually happens.
It would be better to stick with one coin, one exchange and one wallet. Getting involved into to many exchanges wont produce any profits so what is the point of distracting concentration with too many options.  Choose coinbase when starting the journey and then shift to others per requirements.  It is the best exchange at present and offers low fee. Still, if he likes to carry this experiment he can.

One way to lessen the risk of getting your deposit or withdrawal getting stuck and losing the opportunity to profit from this method is to do it on decentralized exchanges. Etherdelta used to be one of the best exchanges to arbitrage but it cans still be done on IDEX, DDEX, or Forkdelta,

You are not doing anything new,this method of trading is called arbitrage. If you are capable of finding the price difference between exchange then you can make profits as you did but this is more riskier than you think especially when a token has less trading volume because price changes will be high which could affect your trade while you are moving coin from one exchange to another.
Arbitrage is not as easy as it looks. You should be very careful with coins and exchanges. Most of the free arbitrage sites show only the price difference. However, the status of the volume or It is not shown whether the withdraw button works on these sites. Even, sometimes it is shown that there is a 50-60% price difference. So, always be careful and do not search for big earnings.

there is no harm in using arbitrage and we must also understand the risks that will occur in the future to reduce the losses that will be obtained.

this is known as arbitrage trading. you should be careful on how you place your trading to avoid loosing your funds. you might be stucked with trading fees, gas fees between accounts and exchange. it might not be favorable. some times.

i have tried my best to make little money from this crypto business but it seems like i am not getting things right. from Airdrops to bounties. everything turn to pennies and scams at the end. i have tried to invest in ICOS and IEOs. the product plummets immediately the moment it spends two months in the market. i want to try another option and wish to ask here if it is favourable. i discovered that there are tokens that shares different prices in different exchanges.
simple: i buy low from one exchange and sell high in another. looks simple but i think it is worth while, i tired it once with Mainstream For The Underground token. i made a little cash but it was just a trial.  Grin Grin.
hope to share this here.


What you are talking about is arbitrage, plain and simple.

I personally think that it only works in theory and doesn't work 9 times out of 10 in practice. There is usually a very real reason why there is to be a spread between exchanges for the same token price in the first place. If it's not a deposit related issue, it's likely blocked withdrawals which prevents the free flow of capital between exchanges, and thus creating an isolated market.

You could make profit from calculated risks like these, but real arb ops come by very rarely.

It is good concept if your having real patience and dedication fo searching some potential project token or coin trading in multiple exchange and find difference . Some platforms like Dropil was doing the same I have tried and invested still it’s in huge loss but regularly giving some returns by holding dropil token in their exchange . I am not related to dropil or neither I am promotingg before inventing do your proper research .

in various markets there must be differences in price but the difference is not too high. so that not many people trade from one market to another in one type of coin. because we can lose the transaction fees charged by the market. although we can benefit from trading but we can lose profits just to pay transaction fees. so we better trade in 1 market on several types of coins.
But even if the difference is not too high, if you have enough capital, fees won't be a problem and you can ensure your profit. Transferring altcoin to one another has lower fees than transferring directly using btc. I have tried it before with various altcoins and you should be experienced enough to successfully done it, or else it will be very risky. And this trading is called arbitrage that is already been done by most of the traders especially in this bearish market.

At the end of 2017, which we call bull season, the differences could be high from time to time as there are high volumes for arbitrage transactions. However, the volume is too low anymore. For arbitrage, when you try to buy and sell in another exchange, the price can go above the desired levels when you want to buy, and when you try to sell it goes below ...

Arbitrage trading is very lucrative.  It's an opportunity I have been looking to exploit. The challenge is that most of the arbitrage opportunities I find have very low volume and there is always the risk of the order being picked before you deposit is confirmed since I don't keep my cryptocurrency on exchanges.
Such opportunities always accompanied by risk, there's many points to consider as open opportunities lied with how you understand the market. Keep dealing with your good research and knows the proper way to earned from this strategy. Arbitrage if executed correctly will give decent profits.
Risk is always on the line everytime you invest or do trading but it's true, considering things should be prioritize to at least avoid unnecessary losses. Making research will make you grow and fully understand the things to consider in the market while trading.
Yes, as long as it is done correctly, expected profit will come, if not, the opposite thing will happen and great loss will come at you.

arbitrage with huge trading volume rare to happen..usually it have small trading volume and if we do this maybe we could loss when our token arrived in exchange..buyer and seller very smart , they know this is just manipulation .. Its not recommended if arbit with low volume..better to buy another coins or maybe buying IEO coins in exchange that usually dumped.

You need to think about the fee to send into another exchange and the time of completing the transaction. Without knowing about that, you will not be able to make a profit. That trading type is arbitrage trading, and yes, some coin can have a different price between one exchange to another exchange. But like I said before, you need to know how long the coin will arrive in the other exchange so you can sell it directly.

If you can get the right coin, I am sure you can make a profit because of the differences in the price itself. But be careful because there is a risk behind that trading, so you need to make sure you know before you buy the coin.

This is also a good strategy, but often it does not work when the withdraw issue of small exchanges often has many problems and we have to wait a long time, especially bitcoin.
recently withdraw fee is very high in exchanges and it shows that miners are getting less and arbitrage will have a lower chance of success.
