Your money never leaves your accounts
Your money always remains on your personal accounts on the exchanges. Akari holds no balances and has no wallet of yours to hold them in.
Automated perps trading terminal
Akari automates a delta-neutral trading strategy - cross-exchange perpetuals arbitrage. You long an asset on a venue where it trades cheaper and short the same asset on a venue where it trades higher. When these two prices converge, you close both positions and keep the spread as your profit.
The position market neutral
Buy the cheap exchange, sell the same size on the expensive one. If the price rips, one leg gains what the other loses. Your exposure to price is zero by construction - what you are actually holding is the gap between two exchanges, and the gap is the only thing that has to move.
Same scale as the two legs above. That is the whole idea.
The bot
You create a trading bot that executes for you based on the parameters you set. It monitors the price gap between exchanges, opens both sides of the trade, holds the position and closes it at your target. You will get notified by our Telegram bot every time something is happening with your trades.
Showcase only - the real interface looks different.
Coverage 7 live
Akari terminal currently works with seven venues: Binance, MEXC, Bybit, Gate, BingX, Bitget and AsterDEX. We have many others on the roadmap to be integrated in the nearest future, to give you the widest possible range of opportunities for trading.
Custody
Akari never takes possession of anything. It trades on accounts that stay yours, through keys that cannot move money out.
Your money always remains on your personal accounts on the exchanges. Akari holds no balances and has no wallet of yours to hold them in.
Our terminal executes trades via API keys without withdrawal permissions. Even if a key leaked, there is no path out of your exchange account with it.
All API keys we store are encrypted. They are decrypted only in memory, at the moment an order is placed, and never written anywhere in the clear.

Honest risks
Neutral is not the same as fully risk-free. If a page like this only tells you the good half, it is hiding the other one - so here it is. Although the conditions mentioned below occur rarely, you should still be aware of this.
This is not a yield product. Some weeks the gaps are wide and frequent; some weeks nothing clears your threshold and the right move is to trade nothing.
The biggest risk is the spread moving against you instead of converging. If you enter by going long on the cheaper exchange and short on the more expensive one, the spread can continue to widen - sometimes significantly - creating an unrealized loss on the combined position and potentially increasing the margin required to keep both legs open.
Funding rates can change rapidly, making it expensive to hold your position. A trading halt or delisting event may occur on a certain venue while you have an open trade.
We have as many slippage protection features as we could build, and we continue working hard in that direction, but due to the nature of this trading style, in some cases slippage is not fully avoidable. Sometimes you will get filled at a price worse than you originally expected.
Pricing
Two charges, both simple: a flat monthly subscription for the terminal, and a weekly commission on the realised profit you made using Akari. This is only charged when you are earning.
Flat, per account. Covers the full functionality of our terminal and access to all the materials.
Charged weekly on realised trading profit. Your rate depends on your level, which grows as you trade.
Your rate falls as your all-time PnL grows
New accounts $100 bonus credited to your account on registration, to cover the commission on the first $400 of profit you make.
Referrals 12 months
Refer someone to Akari and you keep a share of every terminal commission they pay for their first 12 months. The more active referrals you have, the bigger your share gets - on all of them, not just the new ones.
Every account has one from the day it is created.
You earn nothing until they do - your share comes out of commission, and commission only exists on realised profit.
A cut of every weekly commission they pay, for their first twelve months.

Questions
No. Your funds always remain on your personal accounts and our terminal can only operate with orders.
Yes, you can run up to 20 separate instances at a time, each with its own settings.
We have safeguard measures to prevent directional exposure. If for any reason one of the legs fails to get filled, the terminal will automatically unwind the second leg until your position is equal on both sides of a trade.
The returns highly depend on the market conditions, your budget for trading and the level of risk you’re ready to take. Our best traders are doing up to 40% monthly ROI; results vary widely.
