  1. the 3 trade you have up indicate: Eur>Usd>Gbp.
    1. Buy eur/usd = eur>usd
    2. Sell gbp/usd = usd>gbp
    3. Sell eur/gbp = eur>gbp
    thus you are not arbitraging. If the gbp were to strengthen randomly, you would lose on bets 2 & 3 and bet 1 could be a wash.
  2. which broker are you using?
  3. Hate to bring this to you but this is not arbitrage as you are exposed to the market. You simply cannot trade the same amount and call it arbitrage. Let me explain from the numbers you have on your vid (I use the same quotes for buy and sell as they are the only ones visible on your screen):
    EURUSD buy 1.09815 = 10000 / 1.09815 = 9106 EUR
    EURGBP sell 0.71863 = 10000 * 0.71863 = 7186 GBP (had 9106 but sold 10000 = 894 EUR borrowed)
    GBPUSD sell 1.52773 = 10000 * 1.52773 = 15277 USD (had 7186 but sold 10000 = 2814 GBP borrowed)

    In total, you have 5277 USD of profit at the end of the transaction but you're yet to return 894 EUR and 2814 GBP. Lets convert them to USD:
    894 EUR * 1.09815 = 982 USD
    2814 GBP * 2814 = 4299 USD

    Total: 5277 - 4299 - 982 = -4

    Meaning you are $4 exposed to market. The fact that you have a positive profit can only be explained that USD moved in your favour at that moment.

    Think of it as if you had your 10000 USD and moved through different countries and exchanged the money:
    At first place you bought 9106 EUR. Then at second place you sold YOUR EUR and bought GBP: 9106 * 1.52773 = 6544 GBP. Last, at third place you go back to USD by selling your GBP: 6544 * 1.52773 = 9997 USD.

    So you started with 10000 but ended up with 9997 meaning there was no profitable arbitrage opportunity.

    What you are attempting to do though is looking like a reversion strategy, I once tried to implement something similar but got busy with other ideas and never finished it. So wishing you good luck and please share your findings :)

  6. Hello. How many trade opportunities arise daily in this strategy? and how many pips they have?
  7. So you published this vid about half a year ago. Did the strategy continue to work enough that it was tradable for you?
  8. it's very good strategy
