Moving high volume with delta-neutral and still being profitable is easy, you just need to use spread arbitrage. 1⃣ Use perp DEXs with point campaigns and high liquidity, for example Variational and Extended: Extended: app.extended.exchange/join/TOMCRYPTO… Variational: omni.variational.io/?ref=OMNITOMDE… 2⃣ Choose a high liquidity asset: $BTC, $ETH, $SOL, $XRP, $HYPE... 3⃣ Check historical funding in your favor (look at 7d APR). 4⃣ Once you have the asset, just wait for an entry. What kind of entry? On the perp DEX where you go long, the price should be cheaper than on the DEX where you go short. 5⃣ Use market orders to get the best execution. You’ll pay ~0.02% fees on Extended, so the ideal entry should have at least a 0.02% price difference. For example, if BTC is $75,000, then 0.02% ≈ $15 difference. 6⃣ Close when the spread is equal or in your favor. 7⃣ Enjoy your funding + spread arbitrage + points.
