Nowadays, several funds are working under the arbitrage strategy and there are different types of arbitrages, including pure arbitrage, merger arbitrage, and convertible arbitrage. Another type of arbitrage is the global macro investment strategy. Pure arbitrage is: “Pure arbitrage refers to the investment strategy in which an investor simultaneously buys and sells a security in different markets to take advantage of a price difference. As such, the terms “arbitrage” and “pure arbitrage” are often used interchangeably. Many investments can be bought and sold in several markets. For example, a large multinational company may list its stock on multiple exchanges, such as the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and London Stock Exchange. Whenever an asset is traded in multiple markets, its prices may temporarily fall out of sync. It’s when this price difference exists that pure arbitrage becomes possible. Pure arbitrage is also possible when foreign exchange rates lead to pricing discrepancies. Ultimately, pure arbitrage is a strategy in which an investor takes advantage of inefficiencies within the market.”
Arbtrust’s pure arbitrage strategy is operated with the digital form of the US dollar, the USDT, or USDC, taking advantage of the high volatility of the same asset (Bitcoin) across different markets (the Exchanges). Our software, systems, and algorithms can identify the highest buying price and the lowest selling for the same asset (Bitcoin) at any of the markets (Exchanges) where we have an account. When our software identifies a profit spread that can be made if we simultaneously execute the open orders for buying and selling on the book order, the system – or the operators – will then have the opportunity to take action and perform the transaction accordingly. If executed, the transaction will happen in 0.034 seconds, and it only occurs when a profit can be made.
