Gas Fee Optimization: Save 90% on Arbitrage Execution Costs

Gas Fees by Network

• Ethereum — $2-50 per swap. Only for large trades ($10K+).
• Arbitrum — $0.03-0.10 per swap. Best for DeFi arbitrage.
• Base — $0.01-0.05 per swap. Cheapest L2.
• Solana — $0.001-0.005 per swap. Near-zero cost.
• BSC — $0.05-0.20 per swap. Good for PancakeSwap.

Optimization Tips

1. Use TRC20 for USDT transfers — $1 flat fee, fast confirmation
2. Transfer during low-traffic hours — weekends and early morning UTC
3. Batch transactions — combine multiple operations in one
4. Use iSetMonitoring Gas Tracker — find the cheapest network in real-time

Network Choice by Trade Size

• Under $500: Solana or Base only
