The funding rate arbitrage bot now supports reverse arbitrage mode

2026-01-05 08:282839
To further enhance the quantitative trading experience for digital assets, the Bitget funding rate arbitrage bot has been upgraded to support more arbitrage scenarios and flexible parameter settings, helping you to capture arbitrage and yield opportunities more efficiently.
Here are the key updates:
  1. Reverse arbitrage now supported: When the funding rate is negative, the bot can automatically go long in futures and sell in spot to earn funding rate returns.
  2. Support for using base assets in positive arbitrage: Users can use base assets (such as BTC) directly as margin to join positive arbitrage, for greater flexibility.
  3. Multi-currency support: The funding rate arbitrage bot now supports a wider range of assets under the unified trading account.
  4. Spot/Futures basis settings: Set an entry basis when creating the bot and an exit basis while it runs, to time entries precisely and reduce yield loss caused by spot–futures price spreads.

Tips:
  • In classic account mode, only positive arbitrage (using USDT, USDC, or other stablecoins) is currently supported. To access all new features, upgrade to unified trading account mode.
  • Update your app to the latest version to use the new features.
Thank you for your continued support. Bitget will continue to bring you smarter and more refined trading bot experiences!
