Manual Arbitrage

Manual Arbitrage Tool

The Manual Arb feature enables users to identify and execute arbitrage opportunities within the Fluxtra ecosystem. It converts a selected token into its liquid staking derivative (ftOM) and checks whether the returned amount exceeds the initially inputted amount, allowing users to take advantage of profitable price discrepancies.


How It Works

User Input Parameters

  1. Arbitrage Amount – The amount of capital allocated for the arbitrage transaction.

  2. Arbitrage Token – The specific token being used for the arbitrage check.

  3. Unbond Option – Users can choose whether the resulting ftOM should be unbonded immediately.

  4. Buffer Setting – Since arbitrage transactions occur in real-time, market fluctuations may impact execution. A buffer reduces the risk of failed transactions due to simultaneous swaps. If a user holds ftOM in their wallet, they can select "Unbond Everything" to initiate unbonding within the same transaction, allowing them to claim their assets after the required unbonding period.

Output & Results

  1. Swap Estimate – Displays the expected amount of ftOM received from the conversion.

  2. Unbond Calculation – Calculates the final asset value based on the current ftOM exchange rate during the slow-burn unbonding process.

  3. Profit/Loss Projection – Indicates whether the arbitrage transaction is profitable, incorporating protocol fees (excluding network transaction fees).

  4. Withdrawal Reminder – If unbonding is selected, users must withdraw their funds after the required waiting period via the designated withdrawal page.

  5. Transaction Fee Simulation – Provides an estimated gas fee for the arbitrage transaction.


Swap Routing & Execution

To determine the most efficient conversion path between token and ftOM, Fluxtra utilizes TFM (Token Flow Matching) to identify optimal swap routes, minimizing slippage and maximizing arbitrage efficiency.


Fee Structure

  • For Fluxtra’s Native LSDs (ftOM) – 0% fee for product usage.

As such the Manual Arb Tool empowers users to capture arbitrage profits efficiently while maintaining flexibility.
