KCS arbitrage explained

Right now KuCoin (KCS) trades on 3 venues we scan: 1 perpetual market, 3 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on KuCoin perp at $7.61 and the highest bid on KuCoin spot at $7.61.

For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best KCS route is to buy spot on KuCoin and short the perpetual on KuCoin: -0.09% gross, -0.29% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.

Spot–spot KCS arbitrage (buy on Bybit, withdraw, deposit and sell on KuCoin) shows -0.10% gross right now. It only works if withdrawals on the buying exchange and deposits on the selling exchange are open, so check the D/W dots before moving coins.

Small KCS gaps usually disappear after fees, slippage and funding. Look at the Net column, the executable Depth and the spread history before trading: a gap that has been open for days is a different trade from a one-minute spike.
