Our Methodology

Transparency is core to our mission. Here's exactly how we calculate confidence scores, detect patterns, and present market data.

Confidence Scoring

Each opportunity receives a confidence score from 0-100 based on four factors. This helps you quickly assess data reliability.

Exchange Reputation (30 points max)

We categorize exchanges based on trading volume, regulatory compliance, and operational history.

Tier 1 (30 pts)

Binance, Bybit, OKX

Highest volume, established track record

Tier 2 (20 pts)

Hyperliquid, dYdX, Gate, KuCoin

Strong platforms, growing adoption

Unknown (0-10 pts)

Other exchanges

Less data, exercise caution

APR Stability (30 points max)

Extremely high APRs often indicate temporary market conditions or high volatility. Lower APRs are typically more stable.

Normal (<200%)30 pts
Elevated (200-500%)25 pts
Very High (500-1000%)15 pts
Extreme (>1000%)5 pts

Funding Rate (20 points max)

Extreme funding rates may indicate unusual market positioning and could reverse quickly.

Normal (<0.2% per 8h)20 pts
Elevated (0.2-0.5%)10 pts
Extreme (>0.5%)0 pts

Data Freshness (20 points max)

Market data can change rapidly. Stale data may not reflect current conditions.

Confidence Tiers

⚡ 80-100

High confidence - reliable data

📊 60-79

Medium - some factors to consider

⚠️ 0-59

Low - exercise caution

🚀 Insight Generation

Insights are generated in real-time from the same filtered data you see in the list. This ensures consistency - if an opportunity is filtered out, its insights won't appear.

🚀 APR Threshold Alerts

Triggered when opportunities exceed 500% or 1000% APR. High APRs often cluster around volatile market events and typically normalize within 24-48 hours.

🏦 Exchange Concentration

Detected when a single exchange appears in 40%+ of filtered opportunities. Concentration risk should be considered for portfolio diversification.

📈 Funding Rate Patterns

Identifies when multiple assets show sustained positive (>50% annualized) or negative funding. This can indicate market-wide sentiment shifts.

⚡ Wide Basis Spreads

Detected when multiple opportunities show >1% price differences between platforms. Wide spreads typically compress within hours as arbitrageurs act.
