CEX identity01
A matching ticker is not enough
Evidence may include token or contract identity and a shared network. If the available evidence cannot establish the intended asset, the result remains unverified.
Methodology
How ArbPing Forms and Reviews CEX and DEX Spread Alerts
ArbPing turns market snapshots into structured Telegram information alerts for people who want to review price differences themselves. CEX and DEX alerts are formed by separate pipelines with different evidence. An alert is a prompt to inspect current market conditions, not a statement that a route is still available or that a result can be realized.
Market information for human review; users make their own decisions and transactions.

04How to review an alert
Learn how ArbPing forms and reviews separate CEX and DEX spread alerts, which evidence each uses, what remains unverified, and which risks users must check.
CEX identity
Two alert pipelines, each with its own evidence
Identify the originating pipeline first. CEX route checks do not prove DEX conditions, and a DEX pool snapshot does not prove that a CEX transfer route is available.
CEX route02
Review transfer state and limited depth
Evidence may include buy-side withdrawal status, sell-side deposit status, route state, limited depth5 order-book context, fee assumptions, reference size, and snapshot freshness. Missing evidence is not treated as confirmed.
DEX reference03
One specified pool, chain, and CEX market
The DEX pipeline compares a user-specified Dexscreener pool and chain with one CEX USDT spot market. The pool's priceUsd value is a reference snapshot, not an executable DEX quote.
Human review04
Estimates are a starting point
Review current prices, liquidity, costs, transfer conditions, and timestamps independently. A displayed difference is not a fill commitment or final result.
What a spread-information alert means
A spread-information alert records a price difference observed between defined markets at a particular time and organizes the available evidence for further review. It is for people who can independently assess spot order books, transfer routes, pool liquidity, costs, and timing. It is not a recommendation or a claim that the observed difference will remain available.
How the CEX comparison is formed
The CEX pipeline starts with the buy-side ask and the sell-side bid for a candidate intended to represent the same spot asset across centralized exchanges. The gross price spread begins with the sell-side bid minus the buy-side ask, relative to the buy-side ask. Supporting evidence may include token or contract identity, a shared transfer network, withdrawal status on the buy venue, deposit status on the sell venue, route state, limited depth5 context, fee and reference-size assumptions, and snapshot timestamps. A matching ticker alone is insufficient, and missing evidence remains unverified.
How the pool-to-CEX reference comparison is formed
The DEX pipeline starts with one user-specified Dexscreener pool, its chain, and one CEX USDT spot market. It compares the pool's priceUsd reference snapshot with the relevant CEX bid or ask to show the direction of the observed difference. priceUsd is not an executable DEX bid or ask, and the comparison excludes gas, pool fees, slippage, and DEX depth. CEX shared-network, deposit, withdrawal, route, and depth5 checks do not carry over to this pipeline.
How to review an alert
Use the alert as a structured starting point, then check the current evidence yourself.
- Identify whether the alert came from the CEX or DEX pipeline.
- For CEX, confirm the intended asset or contract and shared transfer network.
- For DEX, confirm the exact pool, chain, token, and selected CEX market.
- Check timestamps and treat missing, stale, or conflicting evidence as unresolved.
- Reopen the relevant markets and review current prices, depth or pool liquidity, costs, slippage, and transfer conditions.
- Decide independently whether the information remains useful.
What ArbPing does not do
ArbPing does not place orders, move or hold funds, provide investment advice, or promise that a price difference can be captured. Users choose whether to transact and remain responsible for venue, network, liquidity, timing, and execution risk.
Risks that can change the result
Prices may move between observation and review. Limited order-book depth, pool liquidity, slippage, fee differences, withdrawal costs, network congestion, paused transfers, exchange or data-provider outages, and stale snapshots can reduce or remove the observed difference. Review the full risk guidance before relying on any alert.

What does an ArbPing spread alert tell me?
It tells you that ArbPing observed a price difference between defined markets at a recorded time and provides the available evidence for review. It does not confirm that the same difference remains available when you read it.
Are CEX and DEX alerts reviewed in the same way?
No. CEX alerts may use asset identity, a shared network, transfer status, route state, limited depth5 context, and freshness evidence. DEX alerts compare one specified pool and chain with one CEX USDT market; they do not inherit the CEX route or order-book checks.
Does a DEX alert show an executable pool price or net result?
No. The Dexscreener priceUsd field is a reference snapshot. It is not an executable DEX bid or ask and does not include gas, pool fees, slippage, or DEX depth.
What happens when evidence is missing or stale?
Missing or stale evidence remains unresolved rather than being presented as verified. Recheck the venue, pool, route, and timestamps before making any decision.
Does ArbPing act on my behalf?
No. ArbPing is not an arbitrage bot or trading bot. It does not provide automated arbitrage, auto trading, automatic execution, or trading signals, and it does not collect exchange API keys to place orders. It provides structured Telegram information alerts for human review.
