Questions fréquemment posées

Qu'est-ce que l'Arbitrage Intelligent ?

The Intelligent Arbitrage is an innovative tool designed to enable traders to implement arbitrage strategies between perpetual futures and their spot equivalents. It leverages the funding rate mechanism by covering the futures position with a spot position to collect funding fees.

What are the financing fees in perpetual futures trading?

The financing fees are periodic payments between holders of long and short positions in perpetual futures markets, aimed at aligning the futures contract prices with those of the underlying spot assets.

Financing fees = position size x financing rate

The funding rate determines the financing fees and fluctuates over time for each symbol independently. You can view an overview of the funding rate for each symbol on Gate Futures. For more information on financing fees, please refer to our dedicated article: Understanding Financing Fees on Gate Futures.

Comment fonctionne l'Arbitrage Intelligent ?

Arbitrage involves taking a long position in one market (, for example, in the spot market ), and a short position in the other (, for example, in the futures market ), to earn funding fees. The funding rate arbitrage strategy is delta neutral, meaning it aims to hedge against price movement risks by taking opposing positions in the futures and spot markets. This strategy implies that regardless of the direction of the price change, your profit on a long position will offset your loss on the short position ( or vice versa ), and you will earn the funding fees. The goal is to profit from funding rate payments without being exposed to significant price volatility risks.
