How this strategy is usually reviewed

Contract comparison

The primary task is to identify when similar futures contracts open a wide enough gap.

Funding and basis drift

Perpetual contract funding rates and expiration basis differences directly affect the quality of the comparison.

Ready execution

A scanner helps traders move from discovery to validation before the derivative spread normalizes.

What traders usually validate first

Depth on both venues

Spreads are only meaningful if the order book on both sides can absorb the intended size without heavy slippage.

Contract specifications

Lot size, quote currency, and settlement mechanics must align before treating two futures contracts as equal.

Clean monitoring views

Exchange filters and spread thresholds reduce false positives when many derivative markets move together.
