Risk Considerations

Risk management for arbitrage bot architecture addresses position limits, stop loss placement, correlation exposure, and worst-case drawdown scenarios. Regular monitoring prevents drift from intended behavior.

Important: Always validate arbitrage bot architecture logic on out-of-sample data before live deployment. Paper trading reveals execution issues that backtests miss.

Testing Approach

Testing arbitrage bot architecture includes unit tests for signal logic, integration tests for exchange interaction, and backtests against historical data with realistic slippage modeling.
