How It Works

Scan: Compare funding rates on Drift vs Flash Trade
Identify: Find pairs where one is paying and other is receiving
Execute:
- Go LONG on exchange with negative rate (receive funding)
- Go SHORT on exchange with positive rate (receive funding)
Collect: Delta-neutral = collect funding from both sides
Rebalance: Close when spread reverses or DD exceeded

Example Trade

text

SOL Funding Rates:
- Drift: -500% APY (longs receive)
- Flash: +800% APY (shorts receive)
- Spread: 1300% APY

Action:
→ LONG $50 SOL on Drift (receive 500% APY)
→ SHORT $50 SOL on Flash (receive 800% APY)
→ Net: Delta-neutral, collecting ~1300% APY in funding
