CascadeArb is software for traders and teams working with funding and arbitrage. We are developing and beta testing scanners that monitor market events and send informational alerts to Telegram.
Monitor perpetual funding rates and surface potential opportunities for collecting funding payments with hedged positions.
Rates · settlement intervalsFind funding-rate differences for the same asset across exchanges to evaluate offsetting long and short positions.
Same asset · different exchangesCompare token quotes across venues and flag price discrepancies for closer evaluation of a potential trade.
Quotes · price spreadsIdentify price differences between centralized spot markets and decentralized exchanges.
Spot exchanges · DEXsOur parsers collect price quotes and funding rates to compare markets.
Compare data for an asset and identify potential opportunities within each strategy.
Signals arrive in Telegram for the team to review the conditions and decide what to do next.
Our tools are currently in beta testing. Contact us about the product, beta testing or collaboration.
Get in touchAdjust hypothetical rates to see the trade-off. This model isolates funding less the costs you enter; it is not a calculation of total trading profit.
Funding less costs
Positive under these assumptions
Funding = notional × (short rate − long rate) / 100 × 3 settlements per day × days. Entered costs are then deducted. The model assumes linear contracts settled in the same stable currency, aligned eight-hour intervals, constant rates and constant notional. USDT is treated as USD for this illustration.
Price P&L, basis and position-size changes, liquidation, borrowing, transfers, stablecoin depegging and venue default are excluded. Actual settlement intervals may differ. A positive model result can still coincide with a loss on the overall trade.
Funding mechanics: Bybit documentationThe rate difference is only part of the picture. Research also means understanding where a strategy can break down.
Further reading: OKX arbitrage overviewA favorable difference can narrow or turn negative before the next settlement.
Gains on one exchange do not automatically support margin on another. An individual leg can be liquidated.
Changing price differences, slippage and mismatched fills can outweigh funding received.
Outages, withdrawal restrictions and venue failure can affect access to capital and positions.
