ARBITRAGE

Arbitrage
In practice we often see temporary deviations from
law of one price. Mostly, these are so small that
transaction costs wipe out the potential gains.
However, in some short lasting occasions they reach
to levels that traders can make arbitrage profits.
These deviations fade away quickly, as traders buy
in the low price environment and sell in high price
environment.

Arbitrage Profit
Buy 10m USD at 1.7160
Pay 17,160,000 CHF
Sell 10m USD at 1.7165
Receive CHF17,165,000
Net gain at 2T is CHF 5,000
Cross Rates and Triangular Arbitrage
For instance when Citibank asks UBS its Swiss
Franc rate, that rate is quoted against USD unless
otherwise stated.
Since bulk of dealings are done against the USD,
the "market rate" for any currency at any moment is
best reflected in its exchange rate against USD.
