Tap an opportunity you can act on and ArbiHunt opens its detail screen — the full breakdown of a single cross-exchange spread. (On a free account, a locked PRO-only row takes you to the upgrade page instead of the detail screen.) This guide walks through every field so you know exactly what you're looking at before you commit any funds.
The hero: spread and pair
At the top you'll see the spread as a large percentage, labelled SPREAD, alongside the pair (the token and its quote currency, defaulting to USDT). This is ArbiHunt's net-profit percentage — the gap after trading fees on both legs, the withdrawal fee and live order-book liquidity have been costed out. It is not the raw price difference, and it's the only number worth trading on: a healthy gross gap can still net out flat or negative once costs are in. For why the two differ, see Spread vs. net profit.
Two uses of the word "spread"
A quick heads-up to avoid confusion. On the dashboard, the Spread % column shows the gross gap before costs, with Net profit listed as a separate, after-costs figure. On this detail screen, the big SPREAD figure is already the net number — costs are baked in. Same word, two meanings: the figure here matches the dashboard's Net profit column, not its Spread % column.
Beneath the spread sits a summary line: Liquidity (how much the order books can absorb) and Potential profit (the estimated dollar figure for this opportunity).
Potential profit is a PRO figure
The dollar profit figure is a PRO feature and is stripped server-side for free accounts — you'll see a padlock where the number would be. The spread percentage, route and network are still visible.
The transfer pill
Just below the hero is a pill reading Transfer [token] via [network] — the blockchain network ArbiHunt expects you to use to move the coin from the buy exchange to the sell exchange. When the network is supported on both exchanges, you'll see a networks match ✓ marker.
That tick matters: a network must be open for withdrawals on the sending exchange and for deposits on the receiving exchange. Send a coin over a chain the destination doesn't support and the funds can be lost. More on this in Choosing the right network for a transfer.
The two leg cards
The heart of the screen is two cards side by side: the buy leg and the sell leg.
Buy leg — "Buy at [exchange]"
This is where you acquire the coin cheaply. It shows:
- Lowest ask — the cheapest price someone is currently selling at: roughly what you'd pay as a taker.
- 24h volume — how actively the coin trades here over the last day. Thin volume is a warning sign.
- Buy liquidity — order-book depth on the buy side: how much you can fill near that ask before slippage moves the price against you.
- Active withdrawal network(s) & fees — the chains you can withdraw on and the flat per-network fee each charges, which comes straight out of your profit.
- Contract address (PRO) — the token's on-chain contract on this exchange.
- A Check on [exchange] link that opens the venue in a new tab.
Sell leg — "Sell on [exchange]"
This is where you sell the coin higher. It shows:
- Highest bid — the best price someone is currently buying at: roughly what you'd receive as a taker.
- 24h volume — trading activity on the sell venue.
- Sell liquidity — order-book depth on the sell side: how much you can offload near that bid before the price drops.
- Active deposit network(s) — the chains this exchange will accept the coin on. This is what the network must match.
- Contract address (PRO) — the token's contract on this exchange.
- A Check on [exchange] link to the venue.
Bid, ask and the real gap
You buy near the ask and sell near the bid. The true gap is sell-side bid minus buy-side ask — not the mid-price you might see quoted elsewhere. ArbiHunt already uses these executable prices when it computes the spread.

Weighing liquidity against your trade size
Liquidity is the field most beginners skip — and the one that quietly eats profits. The Liquidity figure and the per-leg Buy liquidity / Sell liquidity numbers tell you how much depth sits near the best price.
The rule is simple: your trade size should fit comfortably inside the available depth. Try to fill more than the order book holds near the top price and your order walks down (or up) the book, so the average price you actually get is worse than the quoted ask or bid. That gap is slippage, and on a thin coin it can wipe out the whole spread.
Use the smaller of the two leg liquidity figures as your ceiling, and stay well under it. When in doubt, trade smaller.
Verify the contract before you move funds
At the bottom of the screen ArbiHunt shows two reminders, and they exist for good reason. The first:
Double-check the coin's contract and name on both exchanges before initiating the trade.
The same ticker can point to different tokens on different exchanges — a migrated, wrapped or entirely separate contract that merely shares a symbol. ArbiHunt deliberately fetches the contract address per exchange (a PRO field on both legs) rather than assuming two same-named coins are identical, so you can confirm they match before transferring.
Never assume same ticker = same asset
If the contract addresses don't match across the two exchanges, it is almost certainly not the same coin. Moving funds anyway can mean an unrecoverable loss. Always verify the contract before transferring.
The second reminder is about timing:
Act fast — arbitrage opportunities are time-sensitive and typically last no more than 10–15 minutes.
Prices refresh roughly every 30 seconds, so every figure on this screen is a live snapshot, not a promise. Re-check on the exchange itself right before you trade.
Acting on it
When you're ready, use the Check on [exchange] links to open each venue. ArbiHunt is an information tool — it finds and ranks opportunities but never executes trades or moves your funds. You place the orders and run the transfer yourself, keeping full control of your own accounts. For the end-to-end flow, see How to execute an arbitrage trade, step by step.
Nothing here is financial advice. Spreads can close in seconds and opportunities may not always be executable — trade at your own risk.
