I have finally figured out how to +EV farm extended
@PlanemoTrading's dn algo between extended and lighter is p much completely passive and pnl fluctuates around breakeven by $20-30 in my experience
the problem with it in previous weeks was that while it basically cost nothing in terms of time and money, it was only getting ~3 extended points/week for ~$2k deposited on each DEX
idk what happened this week, but either competition on extended dropped significantly, or they started rewarding maker and OI fairly because for the first time ever, I achieved
$0.068 fees/point and 78.2 points (NB: this doesn't account for builder fees because I couldn't find info on how many bps they are)
the bot seems to mainly use maker on extended (0 DEX fees) and taker on lighter (I have my account set to free). Instead of focusing on funding arb, it goes for basis arb (when the prices on the DEXs are different), which is much more effective.
the advantage that this has over @Nomina and @farmer_tools is that it's always monitoring arb opportunities across 30 pairs and automatically switches between them when needed, while other tools are much more hands on (albeit much more mature)
the dashboard is quite buggy and the UI itself is also extremely buggy (you need to get @LuciusLucioVII to set it up for you), but these are the stats it shows and from checking on the DEXs, it's reasonably accurate (despite a few inconsistencies on the UI)
also note that this account started off at -$30pnl because the lighter API didn't connect properly at first and it had some directional exposure
I was about to withdraw my funds from extended and completely give up on it prior to this week, but I'll stick around if this keeps up, as required.
