1 ok · 4 to watch
  • Watch: Thin at this size19.7 / 17.0 bp
    At $10k entering Arcus costs 19.7 bp, fee and slippage, 1.2× Binance’s.
  • Note: Margin at max leverage$1,000 + $200
    Arcus 10x, Binance 50x. Keep about 2× this so a sharp move doesn’t liquidate one leg.
  • Watch: Payment intervals differ1h / 4h
    Payments land at different times. Close right after the slower leg pays.
    Next 24h at the current rates, on $10k a leg: +$8.22Long Arcus: 24 payments, −$3.00; short Binance: 6 payments, +$11.22.
  • OK: Entry gap works for you+0.051% vs −0.098%
    You short the dearer leg. If the gap goes back to average, the short gains.
  • Watch: Long leg is thinner$204K vs $20.6M OI
    Arcus sets your exit cost. Check its book before closing.
  • Note: No points program—
    Neither exchange runs points right now.
  • Watch: KYCArcus No · Binance Yes
    Verified KYC to deposit or trade; futures accounts under 30 days old are capped at 20x.
