Spot-Spot Arbitrage Hedge Calculator
Calculate a spot-spot trade hedged with a perp: result with and without the hedge, fees, funding, short margin and liquidation, and the minimum entry spread.
Buy on exchange A, short the perp, transfer the coin to exchange B, sell it and close the short. Run the numbers before you enter: with a hedge and without.
Entry prices, $
Position
Open the short for the amount that will actually arrive: coins bought minus the withdrawal fee.
Fees
Transfer and funding
Funding uses the exchange sign: plus means the short receives, minus means the short pays. Prorated over the transfer time.
Hedged breakdown
Educational tool. The liquidation price is approximate: each exchange has its own formula and maintenance margin. This is not financial advice; you make your own trading decisions.
