USUAL arbitrage explained

Right now Usual (USUAL) trades on 8 venues we scan: 8 perpetual markets, 5 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on KuCoin perp at $0.0132 and the highest bid on Gate perp at $0.0132.

The widest USUAL perpetual spread is between KuCoin and Gate: long USUAL on KuCoin at $0.0132 and short on Gate at $0.0132 for +0.38% gross, or +0.22% 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 0.000% per day, which the position collects while it is open.

For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best USUAL route is to buy spot on MEXC and short the perpetual on Gate: +0.33% gross, +0.13% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.

Spot–spot USUAL arbitrage (buy on MEXC, withdraw, deposit and sell on Gate) shows -0.09% 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 USUAL 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.
