It's a set of arbitrage scripts that I created to make triangular arbitrage. It's no longer profitable.

Question - Why is this no longer profitable? #1

What happened: Suddenly, the algorithm stopped generating new orders(no opportunities).

Two Possible reasons:

  1. Most probable reason: The exchange platform stepped in and made this their own profit. Somewhat like market making.
  2. Since it is only about speed, other advanced players outplayed my shabby scripts. I use JSON api here. FIX protocol should be much faster.
