What is ArbiByte?

ArbiByte is a professional cryptocurrency arbitrage trading platform that helps you identify and execute profitable trading opportunities across 190+ exchanges. Our AI-powered system monitors price differences in real-time and enables you to profit from market inefficiencies.

How Does Arbitrage Work?

Cryptocurrency arbitrage involves buying a digital asset on one exchange at a lower price and simultaneously selling it on another exchange at a higher price. The price difference, minus fees and transfer costs, represents your profit. ArbiByte automates this entire process.

Key Benefits

• Real-time monitoring of 190+ exchanges
• AI-powered opportunity detection
• Automated trade execution
• Bank-grade security with encrypted API keys
• Risk management tools
• Detailed analytics and reporting

Step 1: Create Your Account

Sign up for a free ArbiByte account. Provide your email, create a strong password, and verify your email address. We recommend enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) immediately for enhanced security.

Step 2: Choose Your Plan

Select a subscription plan that fits your trading needs:

• Starter ($49/month): 3 exchanges, 50 trades/month, manual execution
• Professional ($149/month): 10 exchanges, 500 trades/month, semi-automated
• Enterprise ($499/month): Unlimited exchanges, unlimited trades, full automation + AI

Step 3: Connect Exchanges

Link your exchange accounts using API keys. Navigate to Dashboard → Exchanges → Add Exchange. For each exchange:

1. 1.Log into your exchange account
2. 2.Generate a new API key with Read and Trade permissions only
3. 3.NEVER enable withdrawal permissions
4. 4.Copy the API Key and Secret
5. 5.Paste them into ArbiByte
6. 6.Click "Connect Exchange"

Step 4: Configure Settings

Set your trading parameters in Settings:

• Minimum profit threshold (recommended: 2-5%)
• Maximum trade size per opportunity
• Risk tolerance level
• Preferred trading pairs (BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT, etc.)
• Auto-execution rules (if applicable)

Step 5: Start Trading

Navigate to the Arbitrage dashboard to see live opportunities. Click on any opportunity to see details, then execute manually or enable auto-trading for automated execution.

Real-Time Price Monitoring

Our system continuously scans 190+ exchanges, tracking thousands of trading pairs simultaneously. Prices are updated every 100-500 milliseconds, ensuring you never miss an opportunity.

Opportunity Detection

When a price difference is detected between two exchanges (after accounting for fees), our AI validates the opportunity by checking:

• Exchange liquidity (sufficient volume available)
• Network transfer times (blockchain confirmation speed)
• Current network fees (gas fees, withdrawal fees)
• Historical reliability of the exchange
• Slippage probability

Trade Execution

Once an opportunity is validated, you have two options:

• Manual Execution: Review the opportunity and click "Execute" to place trades
• Automated Execution: Enable auto-trading to execute opportunities automatically based on your pre-set parameters

Settlement & Profit Calculation

After execution, the system tracks your trades, monitors blockchain confirmations, and calculates your actual profit after all fees. Detailed reports are available in the Transactions section.

Basic Arbitrage Strategy

Best for beginners. Focus on major trading pairs (BTC/USDT, ETH/USDT) with high liquidity. Set minimum profit threshold to 2-3% to account for fees and slippage.

Advanced Triangular Arbitrage

For experienced traders. Involves three trades across three different pairs to exploit circular price inefficiencies (e.g., BTC → ETH → USDT → BTC).

Statistical Arbitrage with AI

Enterprise feature. Our AI identifies patterns and predicts price movements based on historical data, enabling predictive arbitrage before price differences become obvious.

Risk Management

Essential for long-term success:

• Never invest more than you can afford to lose
• Diversify across multiple exchanges
• Set stop-loss limits (max loss per trade)
• Keep reserves for unexpected fees
• Monitor exchange health and reliability
• Withdraw profits regularly

Creating API Keys

For each exchange, you need to create API keys. Here's how:

1. 1.Log into your exchange account
2. 2.Navigate to API Management (usually in Settings or Security)
3. 3.Create a new API key
4. 4.Name it "ArbiByte" for easy identification
5. 5.Enable ONLY "Read" and "Trade" permissions
6. 6.DO NOT enable "Withdraw" permission
7. 7.Whitelist ArbiByte IP addresses (if available)
8. 8.Save the API Key and Secret securely

Security Best Practices

Protecting your API keys:

• Never share your API keys with anyone
• Use different API keys for different services
• Enable IP whitelist restrictions when possible
• Disable withdrawal permissions
• Rotate keys every 3-6 months
• Delete unused API keys immediately
• Monitor API key activity regularly

How ArbiByte Protects Your Keys

Your API keys are protected with:

• 256-bit AES encryption at rest
• TLS/SSL encryption in transit
• Secure isolated storage environment
• No staff access to decrypted keys
• Regular security audits
• SOC 2 Type II compliance

Troubleshooting API Connections

If your exchange connection fails:

1. 1.Verify API key permissions (Read + Trade only)
2. 2.Check if API key is expired
3. 3.Ensure IP whitelist includes ArbiByte servers
4. 4.Confirm API key is activated on exchange
5. 5.Check exchange API status (some have maintenance)
6. 6.Try regenerating the API key
7. 7.Contact support if issue persists

ArbiByte Subscription Fees

We charge monthly subscription fees based on your plan:

• Starter: $49/month
• Professional: $149/month
• Enterprise: $499/month

Exchange Trading Fees

Each exchange charges trading fees (usually 0.1-0.5% per trade). These are paid directly to the exchange, not to ArbiByte. Example:

Blockchain Network Fees

When transferring crypto between exchanges, you pay network fees (gas fees). These vary by blockchain:

• Bitcoin (BTC): $1-$5 per transfer
• Ethereum (ETH): $5-$50 depending on network congestion
• Binance Smart Chain (BSC): $0.10-$0.50
• Tron (TRX): $0.01-$0.10
• Stablecoins: Use TRC20 or BSC for lowest fees

Calculating True Profit

Your actual profit = Price Difference - Trading Fees - Network Fees - Slippage. ArbiByte automatically calculates this for you before showing opportunities.

Scenario 1: Simple Spot Arbitrage

Scenario 2: Stablecoin Arbitrage

Scenario 3: Triangular Arbitrage

Scenario 4: News-Driven Arbitrage

Exchange Risk

Exchanges can be hacked, go offline, or freeze withdrawals. Mitigate by:

• Diversify across multiple reputable exchanges
• Withdraw profits to cold storage regularly
• Monitor exchange health and news
• Avoid small, unknown exchanges

Slippage Risk

Prices can change between detection and execution, especially in volatile markets. Protect yourself by:

• Set maximum slippage tolerance (recommended: 0.5%)
• Trade during high liquidity periods
• Use limit orders instead of market orders
• Start with smaller trade sizes

Network Congestion Risk

High blockchain traffic can delay transfers, causing missed opportunities. Mitigate by:

• Monitor network fees before trading
• Use faster blockchains (BSC, Tron) when possible
• Keep funds on multiple exchanges
• Avoid trading during peak congestion

Regulatory Risk

Cryptocurrency regulations vary by country. Ensure you:

• Comply with local tax laws
• Use KYC-verified exchanges only
• Keep detailed records of all trades
• Consult a tax professional

Market Risk

Crypto prices are highly volatile. During extreme volatility, arbitrage opportunities may be false signals. Best practices:

• Never trade more than 5% of your capital at once
• Set stop-loss limits
• Avoid trading during black swan events
• Keep cash reserves for opportunities
