OP arbitrage explained

Right now Optimism (OP) trades on 11 venues we scan: 11 perpetual markets, 7 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on OKX perp at $0.1298 and the highest bid on HTX perp at $0.13.

The widest OP perpetual spread is between Bybit and HTX: long OP on Bybit at $0.1298 and short on HTX at $0.13 for +0.19% gross, or +0.03% after the 0.16% two-leg fee model. No transfer is needed: both positions stay on their exchanges until the prices converge. The funding difference on this pair is +0.017% per day, which the position collects while it is open.

For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best OP route is to buy spot on OKX and short the perpetual on HTX: +0.12% gross, -0.08% net, with +0.036% a day of funding on the short leg.

Spot–spot OP arbitrage (buy on OKX, withdraw, deposit and sell on Bitget) shows +0.03% 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 OP 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.
