I wonder what would keep me from moving all of my funds to the trading contracts and keep it there until I want to cash out. Don’t have to worry about the transfers then.
I place limit orders for USDC only and don’t do arbitrage. But fair points for those who do.
when doing arbitrage I normally only in a few moments need to rebalance funds @kazanchev, either way when doing that is better to keep funds on the channels.

Doesn’t Jobaba have a point though? For arbitrage you have to be quick, kinda needing funds available on each exchange you use to arbitrage.
Also on a CEX if you don’t have the funds available you are probably going to miss the arbitrage opportunity. Especially with the usual 12 confirmations for ETH/ERC20 and bitcoin is too slow anyway no matter the number of confirmations required.
The “initialization” is just a single confirmation, is just the approve part. You can do internal re-balancing, would you guys like a demo arbitrage bot like the demo maker bot?

The system changed how it works past week.
Yes I understood that. My point was that if you still have to transfer on any exchange, the opportunity for arbitrage is probably gone already. But I see that you do quite some transfers for arbitraging so there must be a very big and long arbitrage opportunity window you’ve found, good job 
Anyway I definitely agree that when initialization of transfer takes hours for people, this is an issue and not convenient for the users. So I hope those cases can be fixed. For me personally, my transfers have been smooth on Nash lately.

This is correct. I got initialization issues for both, NEO and ETH. This was solved by support by retrying the transfer. In both cases the whole process took 15-30 minutes until my transfers were finally pending.
Also I got a huge delay on ETH network as well as the issue with the NEO disappearance (dont know how to name it better)
After several attempts by the support to check what happened with the NEO tx support opened a engineer case. After this whole analyzing process by support (took again 15-30 minutes, the NEO shown up in my wallet a few minutes after I sent Fabio a PM.
So there were some kind of delay as well without any way I or support were able to see anything.
Hi oldsport,
Is it possible to keep a state channel open for prolonged periods of time, depositing and withdrawing to/from it as you feel like?
Or do we have to create a new state channel everytime we want to trade on Nash and close it after were done?
If the latter is the case, the time/costs of opening nee trade channels every time would be a challenge for the platform imo.
With kind regards,
Nick
Yes - this would be great!
normally on the nash app it takes time, while on the nash web application it is quick.
Could you please help me understand the difference between them? Thank you
