find-arbitrage-opps
Find arbitrage opportunities across all Hummingbot-connected exchanges by comparing prices for a trading pair, accounting for fungible tokens (e.g., BTC = WBTC, USDT = USDC).
Prerequisites
Hummingbot API must be running with exchange connectors configured:
bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hummingbot/skills/main/skills/lp-agent/scripts/check_prerequisites.sh)
Workflow
Step 1: Define Token Mappings
User specifies the base and quote tokens, including fungible equivalents:
- Base tokens: BTC, WBTC, cbBTC (all represent Bitcoin)
- Quote tokens: USDT, USDC, USD (all represent USD)
Step 2: Find Arbitrage Opportunities
# Basic usage - find BTC/USDT arb opportunities
python scripts/find_arb_opps.py --base BTC --quote USDT
# Include fungible tokens
python scripts/find_arb_opps.py --base BTC,WBTC --quote USDT,USDC
# More examples
python scripts/find_arb_opps.py --base ETH,WETH --quote USDT,USDC,USD
python scripts/find_arb_opps.py --base SOL --quote USDT,USDC --min-spread 0.1
# Filter by specific connectors
python scripts/find_arb_opps.py --base BTC --quote USDT --connectors binance,kraken,coinbase
Step 3: Analyze Results
The script outputs:
- Prices from each exchange
- Best bid/ask across all exchanges
- Arbitrage spread (buy low, sell high)
- Recommended pairs for arbitrage
