Options Arbitrage from Scratch: From Calls and Puts to Parity and Cross-Exchange Gaps

Four courses, one method

Crypto arbitrage means earning on price differences: between P2P ads, between exchanges, between spot and futures, or between related options. Each course on this page takes one of these markets from the basics to a first trade you can check yourself. Lessons are free, use real market data and count every fee; nothing here promises income.

P2P Arbitrage from Scratch (11 lessons) is the place to start if you are new: how P2P markets work, where the spread comes from, payment methods, profit after fees and taxes, account-freeze risks and working as a maker.

Funding Rate Arbitrage (8 lessons) is for traders who already use exchanges: delta-neutral spot + perp and perp + perp positions, leverage, margin and liquidation risk.

Futures Spread Arbitrage (8 lessons) covers the cash-and-carry basis to expiry and cross-exchange perp–perp spreads, with the order book, slippage and funding in the calculation.

Options Arbitrage (8 lessons) starts with calls and puts and ends with cross-exchange spreads and put-call parity on Deribit, OKX, Bybit and Binance.

In what order to take them

Start with P2P if you move money between fiat and crypto, or go straight to funding if you already trade futures. Take futures spreads after funding: they share the same hedging mechanics. Leave options for last: it is the most complex market, and the course explains why truly risk-free setups there are rare.
