YB arbitrage explained

Right now Yield Basis (YB) trades on 9 venues we scan: 9 perpetual markets, 7 spot markets and 0 DEX pools. The lowest ask is on OKX perp at $0.0795 and the highest bid on Gate perp at $0.0796.

The widest YB perpetual spread is between OKX and Gate: long YB on OKX at $0.0795 and short on Gate at $0.0796 for +0.18% gross, or +0.02% 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 +0.006% per day, which the position collects while it is open.

For a spot–perpetual (cash-and-carry) trade, the best YB route is to buy spot on Binance and short the perpetual on Gate: 0.00% gross, -0.20% net, with +0.030% a day of funding on the short leg.

Spot–spot YB arbitrage (buy on Binance, withdraw, deposit and sell on OKX) shows -0.05% 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 YB 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.
