Frequently Asked Questions
What is funding rate arbitrage?
Funding rate arbitrage is a strategy where you collect fees paid by perpetual traders while staying delta neutral by hedging long and short positions across spot and/or futures.
What does “delta neutral” mean?
Delta neutral means your long and short positions are balanced so price movement has minimal impact on PnL, letting funding rates drive returns.
Is this strategy risk-free?
No. Market neutral does not mean risk-free. Funding rates can flip, and liquidation risk, slippage/execution costs, and counterparty risk still apply.
Which exchanges do you support?
We support Binance, Bybit, OKX, dYdX, Hyperliquid, and more as we expand coverage.
Is the data real-time?
We stream live updates with frequent refreshes; key funding and spread metrics update in near real-time.
Do I need to deposit funds into your app?
No. ArbHawk is a scanner and analyzer, not a custodian. You keep funds on your own exchange accounts.
