1 ok · 4 to watch
  • Watch: Thin at this size7.1 / 60.6 bp
    At $10k entering BingX costs 60.6 bp, fee and slippage, 8.6× Arcus’s.
  • Note: Margin at max leverage$500 + —
    Arcus 20x, BingX —. Keep about 2× this so a sharp move doesn’t liquidate one leg.
  • Watch: Payment intervals differ1h / 8h
    Payments land at different times. Close right after the slower leg pays.
    Next 24h at the current rates, on $10k a leg: +$8.99Long Arcus: 24 payments, +$7.49; short BingX: 3 payments, +$1.50.
  • OK: Entry gap works for you−0.293% vs −0.590%
    You short the dearer leg. If the gap goes back to average, the short gains.
  • Watch: Long leg is thinner$367K vs $959K OI
    Arcus sets your exit cost. Check its book before closing.
  • Note: No points program—
    Neither exchange runs points right now.
  • Watch: KYCArcus No · BingX Yes
    Advanced KYC to deposit or trade; unverified accounts can only withdraw, up to 20,000 USDT a day. Rules vary by region.
