This paper demonstrates practical arbitrage trading on the cryptocurrency market. It provides guidance on how to build a high-frequency trading system that benefits from exhibiting arbitrage opportunities. It reveals the algorithm of the trading bot that incorporates the order placement and execution strategy between decentral and central cryptocurrency exchanges. The arbitrage algorithm is implemented on two different blockchains that interact with Uniswap and Balancer folks.
